To start find a gnome called Brimstail, he lives in a cave in the south west part of the tree gnome stronghold. He will tell you a bunch of history about the gnomes and ask you for help with a machine in his other room. He asks you to get information from Hazelsmere, the gnome who lives on the small island east of Yanille. He has a fairy ring right next to his house, which may save you some running. Hazelsmere will tell you another long (but funny) story, along with scenes about gnome history. He also gives you a crystal disk that works with the machine in Brimstail's cave. Now, go back to Brimstail, as you are talking, an invisible intruder destroys the machine and ofcourse, you are going to have to fix it. You will need a hammer, saw, a maple log, an oak log and special glue. To make the glue you have to use a knife on an evergreen tree, while holding a bucket in your inventory. Crush up a mud rune with a hammer and grind it into powder in your mortar and pestle. Add the rune powder to your bucket of tree sap. Repair the machine. Now, talk to Brimstail and he will give you more crystal disks to mess with. You have to unlock the machine by enterine ONE disk that corresponds to the number shown on the machine. Below are the numbers that correspond to the crystal disks. To make another number add two or three disks in the exchanger. You can also turn 1 disc into two or three or even four lower ranked disks. red: 1-circle 3-triangle 5-pentagon 4-square orange: 2-circle 6-triangle 10-pentagon 8-square yellow: 3-circle 9-triangle 15-pentagon 12-square green: 4-circle 12-triangle 20-pentagon 16-square indigo: 5-circle 15-triangle 25-pentagon 20-square purple: 6-circle 18-triangle 30-pentagon 24-square violet: 7-circle 21-triangle 35-pentagon 28-square After you unlock the machine you will have to make 3 other numbers. It'll take a little think work, but the number guide above should help. When you figure it out, return to Brimstail and you will see that his 'cute' creature has become something evil. Go to the king and he will tell you to kill the evil creature spies. There are six of them in total: -near the king -top floor of the grand tree -at the gate of the stronghold -at the tortoire training area -outside the grand tree -wandering around between the gate and the grand tree area It may take a little searching, but you can do it! When you are done, talk to the king and you will get your reward. The king also gives you a small crystal seed that can be used on the crystal glass in brimstail's cave, which will turn into a crystal saw.
