Mysterious East

''This is an article about the quest. For the actual location see here''

Walkthrough
Talk to Ak-Hanaru in the eastern lands to begin the quest.


 * Ak-Hanaru: Ready for that guided tour?
 * Player: Off we go!
 * Ak-Hanaru: First off, welcome to the city of Tokaji - which basically means 'city'. This area here is called The Dokkus, or dock. Here you can sail back to the west, go catch some fish on the pier or do some smithing in the local anvil and furnace.

Follow Ak-Hanaru through the Dokkus to the next area.


 * Ak-Hanaru: This area is The Shijou or market. Here you will find a variety of quality stores selling everything from buckets to arrows. There's an area of wasteland to the north bu we're planning on building on that.

Ak-Hanaru will then lead you out of the market into a beautiful park area.


 * Ak-Hanaru: Ah, The Paruko or gardens. My favourite place in the whole city. I often come here too enjoy the beautiful scenery. And then up here is the Ko-Garan, or Great Temple.

Gods of The East
Follow Ak-Hanaru into the massive oriental building. Upon entering, you will find three monks in diffrent robes - one blue, one red and one green. Ak-Hanaru will talk with the old man in blue robes and then come back too get you.


 * Ak-Hanaru: I have brought you westerner, Master Daitoku
 * Master Daitoku: Excellent, I have been looking forwards too this.
 * Player: Uh, hi!
 * Master Daitoku: Welcome too the Eastern Lands, young one. Ak-Hanru has told me off how you helped him in his quest to return home.
 * Player: I'm just glad too be here! I really want too learn all about your culture.
 * Master Daitoku: Such modesty. Well, as you're so eager too learn we'd better start. As you are in a temple, i assume you would like too know of our gods?
 * Player: Yes please.
 * Master Daitoku: In our religion, there are three gods - Kiritsu, Kaosu and Kinsei. Kiritsu, whom I worship, is the God of Order and all that is good in the world. Kaosu, who Master Souryo in the red worships, is the God of Chaos and the evils of mankind.
 * Master Souryo: Just because I worship the god of evil dosen't mean I am evil. Serving Kaosu allows me too better understand chaos and how too avoid it.
 * Master Daitoku: Thank you for that Souryo. Anyway, Kinsei - as worshiped by Mistress Ama in the grey - is the goddess of balance and keeping the universe in shape.
 * Mistress Ama: And after some research, I have been able to conclude Kinsei is very similar to your Guthix. In fact Kaosu is near identical to Zamorak and Kiritsu has much in common with Saridaman.
 * Player: Actually that's Saradomin.
 * Master Daitoku: The point still stands . Our Gods and your Gods are very similar.
 * Player: But why aren't you killing each other. If I were to wear full Sara in front of a Zammy mage I'd be forced to own the noob.
 * Master Daitoku: Well, firstly I haven't a clue what you are talking about but our Gods, unlike yours, have existed in harmony since the creation of the Universe.
 * Player: Without a single row?
 * Master Souryo: Well there was that issue in the third age with that charm ...
 * Master Daitoku: That has nothing to do with this! No, - there has been and always will be peace in the East.
 * Mistress Ama: I think that's enough learning for now - come back later.
 * Master Daitoku: Yes, then we'll have some tasks for you.
 * Player: Tasks?
 * Master Souryo: You must proove yourself worthy of your place here. For that purpose we will each set you tasks.
 * Player: Alright, I'll be back later.

9 Trials of The Player
When you are ready, return too the Ko-Garan and talk to Master Daitoku.


 * Master Daitoku: You have returned . Are you ready for our challenges.
 * Player: Absolutely!
 * Master Daitoku: Good. I would advise you begin by talking to Mistress Ama in the room to the west.
 * Player: Thank you, Master.

Go to the western room of the temple. It is decorated in green and looks like an oriental Guthix temple.


 * Mistress Ama: Greetings.
 * Player: Greetings, mistress. What is your first task?
 * Mistress Ama: Your first task is quite simple - go into The Paruko and pick some cherry blossom, or sakura, flowers.
 * Player: Cherry Blossom?
 * Mistress Ama: That is correct.

Go out into The Paruko and find any Sakura Tree and attempt to pick the blossom. An angry eastern gardebner will appear and demand you stop.


 * Gardener: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
 * Player: Mistress Ama asked me too get some Sakura blossom.
 * Gardener: It'll cost you.
 * Player: How much?
 * Gardener: 500 gold coins.
 * Player: Alright then.

Give the gardener 500 gold and take the cherry blossom off him. Take it back too Mistress Ama.


 * Mistress Ama: Good although it was not teh most difficult of tasks.
 * Player: It wasn't your 500 gold ...
 * Mistress Ama: Anyway, your next task is too go down too The Dokkus and catch me two Koi fish. Make sure you DO NOT cook it.
 * Player: It shall be done mistress.

Head down too the docks with a fishing rod and some bait. Choose any fishing spot and catch two Koi fish - which requires 32 fishing. Take the two fish abck too the temple.


 * Mistress Ama: Excellent! I must say, these would go well with some soy sauce.
 * Player: Shall I make some for you mistress?
 * Mistress Ama: What a good idea . You'll need soy beans, roasted grain, salt, water and something too put it in. Here's a specially made bottle, now off you go.

The soybeans needed for this quest can be found inside the gardener's hut in The Paruko. When he's not looking, creep in and steal the beans (this dosen't require a thieving level but you still need to be careful). If the gardener spots you, he will teleport you down to The Dokkus. When you have the beans, get some wheat and cook it on a range to get roasted grain (requires level 3 [[runescape:Cooking|cooking). Next, buy some salt from the cooking store in the Shijou district for 25 gp. Finally use the soy sauce bottle on a water sauce such as a fountain then use the other ingredients on it in the following order: salt, roasted grain then soy beans. Any other order will ruin the ingredients you used and you'll have too retrieve them again. Once you have made the sauce, return too Mistress Ama.


 * Mistress Ama: Mmmmmm! Soy sauce is my favourite. I'll just take that.
 * Player: Are we done now mistress?
 * Mistress Ama: Yes, you have completed all of my tasks. Before you leave, take this tonic I mized from teh Sakura blossom. I'm sure it will help you with some of the other tasks.
 * Player: Thank you mistress.

Mistress Ama will give you a Prayer Tonic, one of the many new herblore options in the Eastern Realms. Free players, and members can give Mistress Ama sakura blossom, soybeans and 10gp in exchange for a prayer tonic. This is the same as the way free players can give the apothecary in south Varrock a limpwurt root, red spider eggs and 5gp for a strength potion.

Trials of Battle
Next to too Master Souryo in the eastern room of the temple. It is decorated in red and appears like an oriental Zamorak temple.


 * Master Souryo: Ah Westerner, you come for my three tasks.
 * Player: What do you wish of me, master?
 * Master Souryo: My tasks are much tougher than the simple 'tasks' of Mistress Ama. I am here too test your combat skills.
 * Player: What is your first task?
 * Master Souryo: See that practice board, I want 3 steel arrows in the bullseye.

There is a spinning target similar to the one at Balthazar Beauregard's Big Top Bonanza, except without a fairy strapped to it. The player has too fire at the target and get three stell arrows into the small red circle at the centre. Your aim will wobble too make it harder but you can make it steady for a few seconds by holding your breath (right-clicking).


 * Master Souryo: Impressive archery skills, but are you a profficient mage? I will summon an imp - defeat it using only magic.
 * Player: As you command.

As he said, Master Souryo will summon an imp. You can use any magic spells - standard, ancient or lunar. The imp is only level 9 so it shouln't be too difficult too defeat - even if the player is restricted to mage.
