Rescue Rakus the Fire Mage from the cave of the undead.

  • 1 of 7: You'll need to talk to Rakus in his cave and volunteer to help him escape in order to get this mission.
  • 2 of 7: As soon as you tell him to run, several tough undead will appear in the way and attack you both.
  • 3 of 7: You need to help Rakus kill them all off before they can kill him.
  • 4 of 7: When all the undead in the cave are finished off, you'll get 1000 XP, four Okara rep points, and Ancient Knowledge +1.
  • 5 of 7: Talk to Rakus just outside the cave to get the exact same reward all over again.
  • 6 of 7: Tell him about the undead not bothering anyone anymore to get 639 gold and 500 XP.
  • 7 of 7: Also, if you ask him about his discovery, you can get a fire chalice from him along with 500 more XP.
