Getting started

The Cave System

Room 1

TFC room 1 solution

  • Use the pitch can to light fires (There's a Make-Fire-Here option on right-click) to complete the arrow on the ground.

Room 2

  • Light the logs located south in the cavern.
  • Take the Firemaking journal towards the centre of the room.
  • After a cutscene, enter the next room.

Room 3

TFC room 3 solution

Second puzzle solution

  • Complete the pattern which is in the shape of a falling boulder.

Room 4

  • Light the fire just like in the second room.
  • Take the Firemaker's journal.
  • Click the pillar near the fire and tie up Twig.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 5

The solution for the third puzzle

  • Complete the puzzle. Dodge the fire walls by going through the gaps in them immediately after the puzzle.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 6

  • Complete the agility maze by lighting fires and pushing the pillars. The pillars show you where to go next by a mini-cutscene when you push them.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 7

  • Light the fire and pick up the journal.
  • Click on the pillar by the fire and tie up Sera.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 8

Solution to the fourth puzzle. Coloured dots indicate where fires should be placed.

  • Complete the puzzle in this room and immediately run to one of the gaps in the walls and hide in it until the wall of fire passes by.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 9

  • Complete the "tutorial" that Char gives you.
  • Complete this room by surviving until the end of the wave bar. You can light the oil lines to make fire barriers to block the orbs that fly around.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 10

  • Again, light the fire and grab the journal.
  • At the pillar, tie up Twig again.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Room 11

TFC room 11 solution

The solution to the fifth puzzle (11th room)

  • Complete the puzzle which is in the shape of a torch.
  • Light the fire pit and grab a Torch from it.
  • Continue down the path and when there are tendrils of darkness, ward them off by LEFT-clicking on them at the edge of the screen.
  • Proceed to the next room at the end of the path.

Room 12

  • Light the fire and take the journal.
  • Tie Emmett to the pillar this time.
  • Proceed to the next room.

Face-off with Char

Note: It is advised to bring a few energy restoring items, or visit the salt bath in Oo'glog, as well as bringing life point restoring items. It is also advised to bring an abyssal whip, an off-hand weapon, and nothing else except weight-reducing items. Armour will raise your maximum life points and increase Char's max hit, therefore it is not recommended. Keeping at least 5 fires lit will ensure adequate damage against Char.

  • Take the journal.
  • Defeat Char.

Finishing up

  • Exit through the tunnel in the back of the room.
  • Talk to Sera or Emmett.
  • Quest complete!
