Fairy Tale III - Battle at Ork's Rift


 * This article is about the quest. For the battle taking place at the Orks rift, see Battle at Orks Rift.

Fairytale III is the last installment in the Fairy Tale quest series. You have to defeat the Fairy Godfather once and for all.

Starting off

 * With a Dramen Staff or Lunar Staff, go into any one of the fairy rings or go through the Lumbridge Swamp shed. If you appear at Zanaris, and not a small area with Fairy Very Wise nearby, type in the code B-I-R in a fairy ring. You will be teleported to a small area.
 * Talk to Fairy Very Wise. She will explain that this is the Sparse Plane which is used by fairies for emergency meetings. She casts an enchantment on you so that you do not need Nuff's certificate anymore and have to dial only one co-ordinate to enter the Fairy Resistance Hideout. She says the Fairy Queen and her general want to speak to you and will offer you a one-time teleport to the resistance HQ.
 * After being teleported, speak to the Fairy Queen to start the quest. She is located in the south-east corner of the Fairy Resistance HQ. She will send you to the Tooth Fairy.
 * Talk to the Tooth fairy and she will ask you to turn on the projector to watch a briefing about Fairy Tooth Magic, aka FTM.
 * After the briefing, talk to the tooth fairy again and she will ask you to watch yet another briefing about the Fairy Godfather's (aka "Bad Daddy's") plans.
 * After the second briefing, the Tooth Fairy will ask you to find her wand for her, but first a tooth extractor is needed. Head north west into another room in the resistance HQ that houses secateurs and hammers. Also you may want to take a bucket for later use, or buy it in the Zanaris general store. Use the secateurs on the hammer to make a tooth extractor (a sacred clay hammer or a Golden hammer also works).
 * Exit to Zanaris.

Tooth Fairy's house

 * Head to Tooth Fairy's house located north west of the bank. Use the tooth extractor on the door to pick the lock. (You'll need at least 51 thieving)


 * Talk to Gnarly (You will need at least 37 Summoning points remaining to do this. If you do not, you will not be able to understand him, and he will bite you for a small amount of damage. There is a Small obelisk nearby to recharge.). You will have to compliment him and his teeth. He will then ask for some milk. Say the following things:


 * You're a wonderful guard tooth with lovely cusps.
 * Your enamel shimmers like a river of silver in the moonlight.
 * I've never seen such amazing, inspired and dream-like toothiness.


 * Take a bucket to a Dairy cow (there is one east of the wheat field) and get some milk.


 * Go back to Gnarly and give him the milk. He will then tell you to pick him up,agree and take him to the tooth fairy.
 * Use the Zanaris fairy ring to get back to the Resistance Headquarters. With the new spell that Fairy Very Wise cast on you, all you need to do is use the coordinates A-J-S. Be sure to click the entry at the bottom of the list, or you will end up on the penguin island near Miscellania.


 * Talk to the Tooth fairy and watch another briefing in which you discover that Fairy Tooth Hunters made a tooth from each general rot. This will also explain how you will have to kill orks, retrieve their teeth and re-plant them.


 * After watching the briefing, step onto the yellow flowers next to the board and use the wave emote. Make sure you have the tooth extractor in the inventory before proceeding. Your tooth will now be pulled and replaced by a Magic tooth (so that you can access more fairy rings) by the TEEF. After a humorous conversation, you will be given a fairy dossier with important information on the generals and the Fairy Godfather.


 * Return to Zanaris, through the fairy ring.

Bre'egth

 * Bre'egth is located near the windmill located east of the bank. Talking to her will reveal that another ork, named K'Chunk, has taken her tooth.
 * Speak with any Ork to find that you need to speak with Fairy Fixit to locate K'Chunk.
 * Head to Fairy Fixit, who is located near the fairy ring in Zanaris.
 * Fairy Fixit will refer you to a remote island where K'Chunk was sent to, and give you the coordinates D I P (She is just near the main fairy ring near the magic wheat)
 * K'Chunk will tell you that he has hidden the tooth on his body. You will need to pickpocket him to steal it. You will then receive Bre'egth's tooth.

Gromblod
Go there using the fairy ring code B-K-Q. She indicates you the mango tree at Ape Atoll. Using the fairy ring code C-L-R She will also enchant you so you can access the ring. After eating the mango, Gromblod's tooth will become stuck in the mango and he will throw it away.
 * Gromblod can be found at the Enchanted Valley, looking for food there.
 * Talk to Gromblod, but he will not tell you much.
 * A few steps away, talk to the Wood dryad or a Centaur. You'll be told that they want Gromblod out of there.
 * Talk to Gromblod again to find out that he is looking for a mango.
 * Talk to the Wood dryad and ask where you can find a mango.
 * Go to Ape Atoll (C-L-R), and pick a mango from the tree which is located right next to the fairy ring. Note: This is a safe area of Ape Atoll so you do not need a Gree Gree.
 * While you are here you can unblock the log that leads to Ape Atoll proper.
 * Return to the Enchanted Valley (B-K-Q) and give the mango to Gromblod.
 * Pick up the mango with tooth at the south. It will not show up as a red dot on the minimap but is directly south of Gromblod. Pull the mango out then use the tooth extractor on the mango to retrieve Gromblod's tooth.

Shredflesh

 * Shredflesh can be found in a cave to the west of Gu'Tanoth; for now use the fairy ring code A-L-P. Bring your pickaxe to access the main map.
 * Talk to Shredflesh there and ask if you could help.
 * Ask him the first three questions.
 * Then say that you're a dentist. A mood bar should pop-up.


 * Use the correct dialogue options that ease him, and convince him to pull his teeth. As soon as this bar is filled the ork will allow you to pull his teeth.


 * What's a bit of pain for a huge ork hero like you?
 * If the tooth isn't pulled out, all your teeth will hurt much worse!
 * Let me pull it! What are you, an ork or a goblin?
 * (For some you may need to say "I'll make sure it doesn't hurt a bit; I'm a professional!" or "If I pull it out quick, it will be over soon and won't hurt much." if the Ork/Goblin option isn't available.)


 * Use the tooth extractor on Shredflesh. You will obtain Shredflesh's tooth.
 * Use the pickaxe on the pile of rock behind him to gain access to the main map.

Preparing for battle

 * Return to the Fairy Resistance HQ (AIR, DLR, DJQ, AJS) and talk to the Tooth Fairy, who will explain the rest of the plan to you and tell you to turn on the projector for yet another briefing.
 * She tells you to go to the Orks Rift using the Fairy rings, with the codes B-I-R; D-I-P; C-L-R; A-L-P. She will also give you her fairy wand to heal the statues there (that can be used as a Dramen or Lunar staff).
 * Go to the Orks Rift and look through the Fairy Tree to view a cutscene.
 * Speak to the tooth fairy after the cutscene, who explains that only the ork ivory statues can disable the godfather's shield, and that you will have to defeat the generals and about 8 Orks first. You can now squeeze through the fairy tree and dispatch the Fairy Mafia once and for all.
 * The generals (Shredflesh, Bre'egth and Gromblod) are level 150 (level 175 in the cutscene);
 * The Orks are level 54;
 * The Fairy Godfather is level 138.

The battle
Items to bring:
 * The 3 Generals' teeth (Shredflesh's, Gromblod's and Bre'egth's) aren't necessary as the Tooth Fairy can replace them after the cutscenes.
 * Bring Farming boosts if your level is below 54, for planting the teeth in the patches
 * Fairy wand (works as a dramen/lunar staff)
 * Good food, sharks recommended
 * 1-3 prayer potions
 * Good armour and weapon, dragon or better
 * BoB (Beast of Burden) familiars such as the War Tortoise or Spirit Terrorbird are recommended

If you die, your items will be at the main fairy ring in Zanaris. (the one you teleport to from any ring set in the game)

'''If you lose any of the generals' teeth, you can get them from the tooth fairy in the Orks Rift, along with the wand if it is lost. You can also retrieve them if you had previously put them in your bank.'''

If you leave the area during the fight, you will have to start over from the beginning.

The Dwarf Cannon is not allowed, as "The magic of the rift area will impact negatively on the cannon."


 * Turn on Protect from Magic before entering. After entering, plant the 3 teeth in the patches to the south and stay at the nearby area.
 * The generals will approach you. Two of the generals will attack using melee, one of them with ranged, and if you aren't within melee range they attack with magic. The Godfather will also use magic, that might either entangle you, or hurt the player and the ivory statues.
 * The Godfather will also heal the orks with 110 life points, and the generals with 200 every once in a while (approximately every minute). Attack the general which is the closest to you, meanwhile keeping an eye on the patches. The patches can be diseased. If so, they must be healed with the fairy wand.
 * Players with 75+ in attack, strength, and defence, and who use Protect/Deflect from Magic, should have no problem during the last fight.

Godfather's spells
When the Godfather shouts out these phrases, the following effect will happen:
 * Cement Shoes!: what looks like a grey broken plate flies towards its target and lands on the target's feet. This prevents you from moving for a short while (General Gromblod and General Bre'egth take advantage of this, safespotting you while you are under the effects of this spell). While you are unable to move, if you cannot reach your intended target, simply eat and use potions as necessary until the effects wear off (if using melee). Protect from/Deflect Magic can completely nullify the damage (and stunning).
 * Sleep with da fishes!: a translucent, grey fish is sent swimming towards its target, usually dealing about 220 damage. Protect from/Deflect Magic can completely nullify the damage.
 * Let me play a tune on my miniature violin!: The ork generals are healed 200 lifepoints each, and ork warriors may also possibly be healed by a lesser amount.

Tips

 * Standing near the farming patch area is out of range of the Fairy Godfather.
 * Standing behind the farming patches helps you rest for a bit.
 * Kill all the generals first.
 * Try to stay near the farming patches, to draw the generals closer to you. If they are allowed to get near the rift, they can beat a set of drums, summoning more ork warriors (even though they cannot beat the drums while under attack, the Godfather's spells may get in the way).
 * The best prayer to use is Protect from Magic, seeing as two of the generals and the Godfather use Magic.
 * Rapidly click on the ivory generals to heal them faster, you must have the fairy wand equipped. It is advised not to heal before most or all orks are dead (including the ork generals), as you cannot heal while having a regular weapon equipped, and the generals can quite easily kill their ivory counterparts in a one-on-one match. Mouse keys may help in clicking them.
 * Do not worry if your ivory generals die; they will respawn after a while. The generals can disease their patches, halting their growth, making the task of slaying the generals a priority. Once the generals are dead, wield the wand and heal the patches to continue growth.
 * Don't rely too much on the ivory generals. True, you may be able to find a safespot from the barrage of ork warriors, but they are fairly weak in combat, with a few ork warriors being able to remove more than half of their health unaided. Once the generals are dead, they can be somewhat helpful in lessening the number of ork warriors attacking you at one time.
 * When the generals are dead, the Godfather will stop attacking you. It is handy to switch off prayer (if you have adequate remaining food) as the remaining orks are only level 54.
 * When the ivory generals take on the Godfather's shield, you should only heal them as the godfather is not attacking you anyway.
 * When lined up, orks will attack each other, possibly killing one ork.
 * General Shredflesh, who uses melee, can be trapped (possibly safespotted).
 * Despite the Godfather's henchmen being told to take an army of orks to overrun Zanaris in the cutscene before the battle, using the fairy ring to get back to Zanaris to bank is perfectly safe.

Strategy
Protect from Melee/Deflect Melee strategy:


 * Before entering, wear good magic-defence armour, put on the Protect from Melee or Deflect Melee prayer, and turn auto-retaliate off.


 * Quickly plant all teeth, and leave them alone.


 * First, kill the general who wields a crossbow, so that you are no longer taking ranged attacks.


 * Then, kill the other two generals. NOTE: When any of the 3 generals are not close to you, they will use a magic attack, which has low accuracy but tends to hit 150s.


 * After all generals are killed, the Godfather will stop attacking you. Kill the ork warriors (most of their level is based upon defence).

Heal them with the wand and wait for every ivory general to be ready. Select "Fight!". The Godfather will only resume attacking you if you directly attack him. Otherwise, he will attack the Ivory generals.
 * After you kill all the orks, check the teeth plants if they have not completely grown and joined the fight.




 * Wait for the Ivory generals to break the Godfather's shield (the Godfather has blue hitsplats and hit bar while the shield is up). Once the shield is broken, you can directly fight him (he has extremely low defence) or make the ivory generals fight the godfather and use the wand to heal them. The Godfather is capable of killing the ivory generals a couple of times, but they will regrow and rejoin the attack.


 * When you finish, a cutscene will play, and you will be teleported out.


 * Also, if you wish to avoid fighting or are ill-prepared, you can wait behind the trees by the fairy ring and let the ivory creatures defeat all the orks (and when the godfather has a green health-bar, but he dies quickly so you should not have to). Be aware that this may take a while as they have to regrow every time they die but eventually you will defeat the godfather and the quest will end. This may also be used for the lower-levels who don't quite have high enough levels to manage. The one potential problem with this plan is that, while the generals are alive, they are able to halt the growth of the ivory general plants. This means that a large amount of "heal and run" tactics are needed while the ork generals are still alive.

Protect from Magic/Deflect Magic strategy:




 * If you have a good Defence level and good armour (Guthan's is very useful for its healing ability), then use the armour along with the Protect from Magic or Deflect Magic prayer. The armour will provide good protection from melee and ranged while the prayer will block damage from magic. (With just the armour but no prayer, the occasional magic attacks will hit high because of the armour.)


 * Follow the same strategy as above.

Protect from Range/Deflect Missiles strategy:


 * This is a effective, albeit expensive, way to dispatch the Ork Generals and their cronies utilising the multi-target Burst or Barrage spells.


 * Equip melee-resistant Magic armour (Ahrims, Lunar, Skeletal or Splitbark) and preferably a Spirit Shield (Guthix or Saradomin books will work too). Use a good staff, preferably one granting a damage bonus (e.g. Ancient Staff.)


 * Also remember to bring a fast melee weapon (Dragon dagger and its special will do) to strike the final blows on the Godfather.


 * If you have low Constitution or Defence, consider using Blood Burst or Blood Barrage to compensate for damage, and lower food consumption.


 * If your Constitution and Defence levels are adequate (65+), take good food (Monkfish or better) and bring runes for Ice Burst or Ice Barrage.


 * Turn on Protect or Deflect Range, plant all the teeth, then run to the patch furthest from the rift. Hide there, and launch your spell upon the pack of Orks in front of you. Try to target in the middle of the group, so you can damage the most at one time, but also try to focus on the Generals at the same time.


 * Once you dispatch the Orkish horde, go and heal the other plants. Attack the final General(the one with the with the crossbow), if he is still alive until your Ivory Generals are fully grown.


 * Turn on Protect or Deflect Magic, and heal the Generals as they attack the Fairy Godfather. Once his shields are down, go in for the kill with you melee weapon (his Magic Defence is VERY high).



Finishing Up
After defeating the Godfather, talk to him to start a cutscene. The rift sucks in the Godfather, and the fairies attempt stitch up the rift. The rift explodes, the generals emerge, and the Tooth Fairy teleports you back to headquarters. She rewards you and teleports you to Martin the Master Gardener in Draynor Village.

Congratulations, quest complete!

ALP
The herbs are: This reward totals. Requires 24 free inventory slots. Players might need to log out after completing the quest, then back into the game in order to get to the right cave with fairy ring code A-L-P. The proper cave has no monsters inhabiting it.
 * With 84 Herblore, you can find a cache of herbs in the mushrooms in the south-eastern section of the Gu'tanoth cave (fairy ring A-L-P). A temporary boost can NOT be used.

Trivia

 * The quest is named after the famous Battle of Rorke's Drift that took place during the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879.
 * On the first day of release in the knowledge base, the rewards were covered by the message: "The Tooth Fairy says the rewards for this quest are divulged on a need-to-know basis, and you do NOT need to know. Well, not until tomorrow, anyway."
 * Upon completion, the Adventurer's Log reads, "I've helped restore Fairy Queen to the throne sending the Evil Fairy Godfather through the rift never to be seen again."
 * Upon asking the tooth fairy if the fairy in the briefing survived, she replies, "It was just a flesh wound." This is a reference to the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
 * During the cutscene after arriving at Orks Rift, the Fairy Godfather removes a wand from a violin case. This is similar to gangsters hiding Tommy guns in guitar and violin cases to smuggle them around.
 * On the day of release, a bug would occur in the Adventurer's Log where the message for completing the quest would appear twice, once towards the start of the quest, during the first use of the projector, and the second time, upon completion. Ft3twice.png
