Pirate's Treasure

Description: Redbeard Frank knows where secret pirate treasure is hidden; it may require some work to persuade him to let you know where, though.

Difficulty: Novice

Length: Short

Requirements: None.

Items Needed: 60 coins, a White apron, and a Spade.

Quest Points: 2

Reward: 450 coins, an Emerald, a Gold ring, and the Pay-fare option to go to and from Karamja.

Start Point: Port Sarim

To Start: Speak to Redbeard Frank

1. Talk to Redbeard Frank, the pirate, on the northernmost dock of Port Sarim, and he tells you about some treasure. Say that you want the treasure, but he will only tell you its location for a price: some Karamjan rum.
   
   
2. Find one of the blue-uniformed seamen on the docks and pay 30gp (or use the Ring of Charos (a)) to go to Karamja. Once there, go to the bar, and buy a bottle of Karamjan rum for 30 coins.
   
   
3. Unfortunately, Asgarnia has banned the import of intoxicating spirits, so you need to sneak it over. Coincidentally, Luthas in the house northeast of the bar says the customs officer doesn't even check his crates anymore. Ask Luthas for employment, and he gives you a job packing bananas in a crate.
   
   
4. Go to the banana field west of this house, and pick ten bananas. Go just east of Luthas's house to find a crate. Right-click the crate and select "Fill" to pack your bananas, and then use the Karamjan rum on the crate. Talk to Luthas and he will pay you 30 coins for every crate you fill (even after this quest).
   
   
5. Travel back to Port Sarim, and walk west to a man named Wydin who owns a food shop. If you have the White apron now, put it on. If you don't, go to the Fish shop just north of you and there you will find a White apron hanging on the north wall. Ask Wydin for a job, and if you are wearing the White apron, he will hire you and tell you to tidy up in the back. Search the crate with the banana on top of it to find your contraband Karamja rum.
   
   
6. Return to Redbeard Frank, and he will be pleased enough to give you a key to his former captain's room in the Blue Moon Inn in Varrock. With any luck, he says, your treasure may be there.
   
   
7. Go to Varrock, and go inside the Blue Moon Inn near the south entrance. Go to the second floor and into the west room. Use the key on the chest to find a Pirate message. It reads, "Visit the city of the White Knights. In the park, Saradomin points to the X which marks the spot."
   
   
8. Your treasure awaits! Go to the park in Falador, and find a statue of Saradomin. Walk six paces west from the statue, and dig. If you don't have a spade, walk south to the house east of the furnace to find one. A Gardener (level 4) may attack you, so kill or evade him and dig again. You dig up One-Eyed Hector's chest (contains 450 coins, a Gold ring, and an Emerald) and the quest is over, matey.
