Official description

Over the years, the kingdoms of Asgarnia and Misthalin have become increasingly uncomfortable about the possibility of threats from the Wilderness and Morytania. King Roald has taken matters into his own hands and has commissioned a network of beacons to be built across the land, from the Temple of Paterdomus at the border of Morytania, along the northern borders of Misthalin and Asgarnia and up along the western border of the Wilderness. The communication network is already in place, but King Roald could use a little help making sure everything is ready to go, in the event of emergency....

Length: Short
Requirements:
Items required:
  • 45 logs of any, but similar type (2 sets of 20, 1 set of 5)
  • Tinderbox (from Toolbelt)

Recommended:

  • Bring the items above in the form of the first 20 logs, a hatchet for cutting the other 20 logs from the normal trees between the beacons, and 5 logs of any type to relight the first beacon, along with the required tinderbox.
  • Equipping a Seer's Headband can speed this already short quest up considerably.
  • Any weight reducing items can help since carrying the logs slows the player down, also explorer ring can help recharge energy.
  • Players can also use the Salt-water spring from As a First Resort... to not have to worry about energy levels during mini quest.
  • Varrock teleport runes to quickly get back to King Roald after you finish the final task.
  • Having a hatchet and tinderbox in your toolbelt will save inventory space in this quest, as you can use it as a hatchet to collect more wood, and a tinderbox to light beacons.
Enemies to defeat: None

The Beacon Network

File:King Roald location.png
Players start this quest by talking to King Roald in Varrock Palace.

After the Priest in Peril quest, King Roald is worried of possible invasion from the Wilderness and Morytania. So, he has had a beacon lighting system set up to warn Varrock of possible attacks from the Wilderness and Morytania. The player must go from beacon to beacon, testing them in case a real invasion occurs.

He will tell the player to go see Blaze Sharpeye, who is located at the beacon near the River Salve, on Silvarea mountain.

The locations of the beacons are indicated by the Fired Up Beacon icon () on the minimap and world map.

Speak to Blaze Sharpeye, who will tell you about the beacon system, and he will have you test the beacons. Players will require 20 logs (of any type) and a tinderbox. (They agreed that if it were a real emergency, Gnomish firelighters will be used to colour the flames).

Let The Fireworks Begin!

The locations of some of the beacons on the world map

The player should use the logs on the beacon, and then light it on fire with a tinderbox. With the flames ablaze, Blaze will tell the player to talk to Squire Fyre. She can be found near the limestone quarry, west of the Odd Old Man, the starting point of the Rag and Bone Man quest.

Squire Fyre will tell the player to light another beacon near her, after seeing that the first beacon has been lit. This also requires 20 identical Logs (of any type) and a tinderbox.

If you brought a hatchet for the second batch of logs, there are trees spread around the area, south of the Odd Old Man, which you can cut. Once you obtain 20 logs, go back to Fyre and load the beacon and light it.

Blaze Sharpeye (a pyromaniac) guards one of the beacons.

After the beacon is lit, go back to Blaze Sharpeye. Blaze Sharpeye will confirm that he sees the second beacon lit, and informs that the fire is dying in the first beacon.

Keeping The Hope Alive

Use five logs (must be identical) on the first beacon to rekindle the fire. Do not leave yet - talk to Blaze again. This satisfies Blaze, and he will tell the player that the beacon network test is successful, and that you should inform King Roald about their victory.

Go back to Varrock Palace, and talk to King Roald for the reward. Congratulations! Quest complete.

Rewards

After the quest, King Roald will tell the player that if they manage to light 6, 10, and 14 beacons simultaneously, they receive additional rewards. King Roald offers a ring of fire for lighting 6 beacons, flame gloves for lighting 10, and an Inferno Adze for lighting all 14.

Required for completing

Completion of All Fired Up is required for the following:

Trivia

  • Upon the completion of this quest, one's Adventurer's Log will read: "King Roald's beacon network has been tested and it works a treat. I can return to complete the beacon run whenever I want and learn a little about Firemaking as I do so."
  • On the day of the release, the spoilers said: "Blaze got a bit carried away and incinerated the spoiler scroll in a frantic effort to set his shoes on fire, so you'll have to wait a day for Reldo to make us a new copy."
  • During the quest, Defender of Varrock, while the zombies are invading Varrock Palace, all the beacons are lit for an emergency.
  • Similar to the quest, beacons have historically been used to warn of invaders. The British have a history of using beacon towers along the coast and mountains to warn of impending threats. The most famous English example is the array of beacons all the way up the east coast of England intended to warn London of an attack by the Spanish Armada. The Welsh Brecon Beacons are named after another famous array. In ancient China, beacon towers were placed a few hundred feet away from each other along the length of the Great Wall of China.
