Objectives

Speak to Tak-Tak to fly to Tian Monastery and meet with the Monkey King.

• Speak with Tak-Tak

Description

Fu Zan... a wise choice. If the legends are true, its powers will be essential to our cause.

We believe that the staff possessed by the Monkey King could be fabled Fu Zan, yet no one has seen him with the weapon for over a year.

The Monkey King was last spotted at Tian Monastery. Be prepared for anything! He is known for being... less than forthcoming with his answers.

Tak-Tak, a hozen kite-master, is skulking around west of the temple. Speak to him without delay.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 1 94
• 1,480 XP

Completion

You seek my staff? You make me laugh! You say you want my help and time? Okay then, wikket, hear this rhyme:

Three new riddles will I ask, Three true answers are your task. Prove you're smart, show you're worth it. Answer the King and we'll unearth it!

Notes

Exit the temple on the west side and cross the short bridge to find Tak-Tak.

Tak-Tak

 Can you fly me to Tian Monastery? I need to speak to the Monkey King.

On approach

The Monkey King says: Wikket come to ask a thing? What does you want from Monkey King?

Talking to the Monkey King after the quest

Greenies from sky done grooked my best grookers.

So we train with the wikkets. Sometimes kings can't be choosers!
