Start the quest by talking to Sir Tiffy Cashien in Falador Park, ask him if you can start doing missions for the Temple Knights. You'll have to go to Witchhaven east of Ardougne and report to Col. O'Niall with the phrase: 'In Falador, the geese fly backwards on Tuesdays'.
Go to Witchhaven and talk to Colonel O'Niall, ask him all the questions. He'll tell you to speak to Mayor Hobb, Brother Maledict and Holgart the fisherman.
Mayor Hobb can be found in the house on the northwest side of Witchhaven, talk to him. Ask the mayor everything you can. Try to talk to the Mayor again, Savant will contact you through your ComOrb and ask for some readings.
Scan with your ComOrb, he'll read two lifeforms at the position of the Mayor. He can't explain it at this time.
Now go to the church in the center and talk to Brother Maledict. Ask him everything you can.
Finally Holgart can be found north of the Mayor's house near where you started Sea Slug. Talk to him and he'll tell you he lost his boat because of some new law by the Mayor. Now return to Cononel O'Niall and ask what to do next. He'll tell you to investigate the shrine.
The shrine can be found west of the city. Go down and push the wall on the east.
You'll end up in a cave with level 45 Giant Lobsters (aggresive), follow the path until you reach imposing doors. When you're close enough to them your Savant will talk to you through the ComOrb and requests a scan, scan the doors.
He'll recognize the runes, he'll add a scroll to your inventory and tell you to go to Jorral who can be found in his tower northwest of Ardougne. Pick up the dead sea slug, Savant will contact you and scan the slug.
Now go to the outpost northwest of Ardougne and talk to Jorral. After talking to him Savant will contact you and tell you about the situation.
Go back to Witchhaven and talk to Colonel O'Niall. He'll tell you to talk to Brother Maledict. Go to the church, when you reach the church you'll see the Mayor coming out of the church. Talk to Brother Maledict and he will tell you pages have been stolen from the holy book. You'll have to find them.
1. The first page can be found in the Mayor's study desk.
2. Talk to Ezekiel Lovecraft in the fishing shop for the second page.
3. Go to Colonel O'Niall for the last page. He'll give you three fragments, Colonel O'Niall is now also corrupted.
Try to use swamp paste with the fragments, Savant will stop you and tell you to use sea slug glue. You'll need someone with experience in aquatic cooking.
Go to Jeb (near Holgart) and ask him to bring you to the fishing platform. Go to the west and talk to Bailey, he'll give you sea slug glue. Use the sea slug glue on the fragments.
You'll have to complete a puzzle. Use the arrow keys to move, the rotate key to rotate and the flip key to flip. Get the pages together to complete the page.
Tip: Making the shaped runes might fail so take extra essence is suggested. Also for frequent runecrafters concentrate when entering the rifts (in the abbys).
Use the pages to shape earth, air, fire, water and mind runes (pure or normal rune essence required). Now you'll have to go to the altars to craft the runes, the fastest way to do this is by using the abyss (take pickaxe and glory amulet) or you could just visit all the altars with talismans (take an elemental talisman to save room).
Warning: You'll have to kill a level 62 Slug Prince here you can only use melee. So take a melee weapon with you.
Go back to Witchhaven, go down into the shrine and back to the imposing doors. Open the imposing doors by placing the runes in them. You'll see a cutscene, you've been set up.
The Mayor will send a Slug Prince after you. You might need some food but it shouldn't be hard.
Then Mother Mallum will come and she wants to take you over but Savant will try to teleport you away. She will block it but after some more tries you'll teleport to Falador park. Talk to Sir Tiffy Cashien to finish the quest.
