Go to Oo'glog, Oo'glog can be found south of Yanille. (Fairy code AKS will get you close) A large amout of items is required for this quest, you can keep the required items in your bank because when you start the quest you'll get access to the Oo'glog bank.



Talk to Chief Tess to start the quest. Ask her what's going on, then ask if you get it strait and then ask if you can help out.



Now go to the bank just to the south and talk to Balnea. Ask her what's going on, then tell her you want to help. The first thing you'll need to do is to establish catering facilities.



Helping a cook, with cooking

Go to the northeast and talk to Chargurr. Tell him you'll be able to get him the stuff.

Note: Chargurr is stupid, you'll have to give him all the logs at the same time.



Cut the achey logs and eucalyptus logs west of the city. Then return to Chargurr and give him the logs.

You'll need more eucalyptus logs later in the quest so cut some more.



Now he'll ask for spears, get the spears and give them to Chargurr. Talk to Chargurr again and he'll now ask for raw chompies, give him the chompies. Talk to Charburr again, you'll have to light the fire now. Light the unlit fire and talk to Chargurr again. It's time for your next task.

Meat pillow

Go back to Balnea and talk to her. You'll have to talk to Snurgh in the house to the far east.



How to get: Stripy feathers can be obtained by hunting Tropical wagtails. (Located northwest of Oo'glog)

Talk to him he'll need 8 stripy feathers. Get the feathers, talk to him again to give him the feathers.

The salon

Go back to Balnea and talk to her. Now you should have a talk with Kringk, in the salon.



How to get: Larupia furs can be obtained by hunting larupians. (Located northwest of Oo'glog); Wolf bones can be obtained by killing wolves. (Located west of Oo'glog)

Go to the house to the east and talk to Kringk. You'll have to get 8 larupia furs and 4 wolf bones, talk to him again to give it.

Bug free pools

Go back to Balnea and talk to her, you'll have to go to Seegud.



Go to Seegud to the northeast and talk to her. You'll have to scare away the flies from the mud baths, by scaring them away with smoke. You'll have to light a fire at the fire pits with the ingredients listed below.

You'll have to check the rocks beside the fire pit and use those ingredients with the firepit. The ingredients can be find west in the forest.
Long brown rock - euc'lyptus log
Green lump-shaped rock - fever grass
Red round rock - primweed
Yellow egg-shaped rock - tansymum
Orange sqaurish rock - stinkbloom
Tall purple rock - lavender



Once you've lit your first fire, it seems something is wrong. Go back to Seegud and talk to her. It seems the children have messed up the stones, but it seems they've only switched the stones. So you should find out what each stone means now.

Tip: Make sure you have a notebook open to register the stones you know.

1. The best way is to start with the fire with only only two stones. Yellow stone to the east - thermal bath.

2. Then continue to the second with the same stone and another stone you don't know yet. Red stone to the east - mud bath.

3. Now go to the pool just west of Seegud. Greem lump-shaped rock - salt water spring.

4. Go to the next pool to the west. Tall purple rock - sulphur spring.

5. Finally go to the last pool to the west. Orange sqaurish rock - bandos pool.

Return to Seegud and talk to her.

Hunting the beasts

Now go back to Balnea and talk to her. You're required to kill some animals in the area. Diseased kebbits, wimpy birds and platypodes.

Go to Chief Tess and ask everything you can.

Platypodes like lavender
Wimpy birds like tansymum
Diseased kebbits like fever grass

Let's start of with moving the platypodes, go to the bandos pool to the west. Set up a box trap and use a tinderbox with lavender (you should have one hand free). Keep burning lavender and resetting your trap until you caught four platypodes.



Then go to the beach (to the east) and release all the platypodes near the reeds. You'll get three chests and an oyster.



Go to the wimpy birds to the east, set up a bird snare and use a tinderbox with tanysmum (you should have one hand free). Keep burning tanysmum and resetting your trap until you caught five wimpy birds.



Go to the diseased kebbits near the house of Seegud. Setup a trap with the boulder (you need a knife and any type of logs) and use a tinderbox with fever grass (you should have one hand free). Keep burning fever grass and resetting your trap until you caught four diseased kebbits.



Once you're finished return to Balnea and talk to her to finish the quest. You'll see a cutscene of the opening of Oo'glog to the public.
