Varrock in danger

Talking to Gideon Bede

Before accepting the quest

• Gideon Bede: In the name of Saradomin, I beseech you - assist me! I have come to this place seeking a dangerous fugitive. He has stolen a formidable demonic tome; one that could spell the end of this entire city! Help me to stop him - please!
  • (Quest noticeboard opens)
    • Accept Quest
      • Gideon Bede: You'll help? Praise Saradomin! I knew you looked righteous! We don't have much time, so listen carefully. I am pursuing Denath, a dangerous and unstable wizard. Denath infiltrated Edgeville monastery and stole a tome of demonology from my order. The book was once used to summon Delrith, an ancient demon, from the Infernal Dimensions. Delrith has the power to demolish cities, and is impervious to all forms of attack, save one - the holy sword Silverlight. Silverlight rests in the crypt below this very church, watched over by the spirits of its former owners. I've tracked Denath to this city, but I lost his trail. While I hunt him down, I need you to retrieve the sword, should Delrith return to this world, Silverlight shall be our only salvation! Climb down the trapdoor to the south to enter the crypt beneath this church, and retrieve Silverlight.
        • Who are you?
          • Gideon Bede: I am Gideon Bede, an occult scholar and caretaker of Edgeville Monastery's modest library. Abbot Langley entrusted the tome of demonology to me. It is my fault that Denath now has it. Though I could not hope to best Denath in battle, it is my duty to try and stop him.
            • (Shows previous options)
        • Tell me about Denath.
          • Gideon Bede: Denath is a mad man who claims to worship Zamorak. Denath revels in destruction, and is blinded by his lust for power. He would call forth a demon that could just as easily kill him and everyone in this city as do his bidding. Denath is insane, and to be approached very cautiously.
            • (Shows previous options)
        • Tell me about Delrith.
          • Gideon Bede: Delrith is an ancient and powerful demon. This is not the first time he has entered our world. 150 years ago, a legendary hero battled Delrith, and banished him back to Infernus.
            • (Shows previous options)
        • Tell me about Silverlight.
          • Gideon Bede: Silverlight is the only weapon that can harm Delrith, and is interred within the crypt beneath this very church. We must secure Silverlight in case the worst should come to pass!
          • Player: Why have you not already retrieved Silverlight?
          • Gideon Bede: I tried, but the holy sword is guarded by the spirits of the dead - three brave souls that wielded Silverlight in life. I faced the spirits' trials, but was judged unworthy. I am but an academic. I cannot stop Denath without your help, hero.
            • (Shows previous options)
        • Goodbye.
          • (Dialogue ends)
    • Not Right Now
      • Gideon Bede: Alas, then all is lost, and Varock shall burn...

After accepting the quest

• Gideon Bede: Climb down the trapdoor to the south to enter the crypt beneath this church, and retrieve Silverlight.
  • Who are you?
    • (Same as above)
  • Tell me about Denath.
    • (Same as above)
  • Tell me about Silverlight.
    • (Same as above)
  • Goodbye.

At the northern chamber

• Spirit of Faith: The Trial of Faith demonstrates that you believe in the power of the gods to guide you. Without faith, Silverlight will be powerless in your hands.
  • Begin the Trial of Faith?
    • Yes
      • Spirit of Faith: The Trial of Faith is simple. You must cross this chasm.
      • Player: How can I do that? There's no way across, and it's a long way down!
      • Spirit of Faith: I will tell you the path you must walk. Do not believe your eyes; each step you take will be a step of faith.
    • No
      • (Dialogue ends)

Before the trial

• Spirit of Faith: Step out into the chasm from the step behind me.

As you approach the chasm

• An aura of calm enshrouds you, and you feel compelled to walk.

  • Spirit of Faith: Step North.
• If you step away from the chasm: 
  • Spirit of Faith: Step into the chasm.
• If you take an incorrect step: 
  • Player: Aaaaaaaaaaah!
  • You fall into the chasm, then return to the western side of the chasm.
  • The unnatural calm fades. You feel able to run again.

After the trial is complete

• Spirit of Faith: You have completed the trial. I will wait for you in Silverlight's chamber. You will not fall on your way back. Walk where you please, for your faith is strong.
• Spirit of Faith teleports away to Silverlight's chamber.

After walking across the chasm

• The unnatural calm fades. You feel able to run again.

At Silverlight's chamber

• Spirit of the Body: You have completed my trial. Visit the other spirits, and complete theirs.

Trial of the Mind

• Spirit of the Mind: The Trial of the Mind will prove that you are focused on your task, and understand what lies ahead of you. You cannot be trusted with Silverlight if your mind is clouded.
• Begin the Trial of the Mind?
  • Yes
    • Spirit of the Mind: Why are you in this place?
      • Player: I seek Silverlight.
        • Spirit of the Mind: And what is Silverlight?
          • Player: A musical troupe.
            • Spirit of the Mind: I cannot prove that there is not such a group. However, your answer falls short.
          • Player: A magical candle.
            • Spirit of the Mind: Incorrect.
          • Player: A sword that slays demons.
        • Spirit of the Mind: Why do you require a sword that slays demons?
          • Player: Why *don't* you need a sword that slays demons?
            • Spirit of the Mind: Wanting for the sake of wanting is shameful and ignoble. Incorrect.
          • Player: A powerful demon threatens Varrock.
            • Spirit of the Mind: Who is this demon?
              • Player: Zamorak.
                • Spirit of the Mind: That is not correct.
              • Player: Gideon Bede.
                • Spirit of the Mind: Incorrect.
              • Player: Delrith.
            • Spirit of the Mind: And who sends you to claim Silverlight and fight Delrith?
              • Player: Zamorak.
                • Spirit of the Mind: That is incorrect.
              • Player: Denath.
                • Spirit of the Mind: Denath attempts to summon Delrith. Why would he send you to claim a weapon and slay him?
              • Player: Gideon Bede.
                • Spirit of the Mind: Your mind is focused. The Trial of Mind is complete. You have completed the trial. I will wait for you in Silverlight's chamber.
                • Spirit of the Mind teleports away to Silverlight's chamber.
          • Player: It will look nice in my weapon rack.
            • Spirit of the Mind: Silverlight yields not to the vain!
      • Player: Graverobbing.
        • Spirit of the Mind: Stealing the earthly possessions of the dead is not a purpose worthy of wielding Silverlight.
      • Player: I like hanging out in crypts.
        • Spirit of the Mind: As...nice as that is for you, it is not the answer I seek.
  • No
    • (Dialogue ends)

Taking Silverlight

• You have claimed Silverlight!

Attempting to re-enter the chamber after claiming Silverlight

Denath found

Reading the Scroll

Hero,
I have located Denath. He seeks to summon Delright right here in Varrock! Denath is beneath the temple of Zamorak, in the south east part of Varrock. Look for a trapdoor without, much like the one in this church. I will meet you there.
Make haste,

Gideon Bede

Summoning Delrith

• Denath: Arise, O mighty Delrith. Bring destruction to this soft weak city!
• Gideon Bede: Denath! Stop!
• Denath: Well, well! If it isn't Gideon Bede. I'm surprised you had the nerve to pursue me.
• Denath: You should have stayed in Edgeville, bookworm! You're alright too late. BEHOLD!
• Denath: Diabolica fratri; with cleansing fire, I break the seal that binds thee!
• Denath destroys the Tome of Demonology.

Finishing up

Upon returning to the church

• Gideon Bede: Well done, hero. Your actions saved not only myself, but all of Varrock, from being turned to smouldering ash by Delrith!
  • If you do not have sufficient inventory space: 
    • Gideon Bede: ​Return when you have space for five items, and I will reward you for your help!
