===Ungrateful===
To start, talk to [[Martin the Master Gardener]] in the [[Draynor Village#Draynor Market|Draynor Market]]. He will tell you to come back once his crops are grown, so wait until your quest menu says his crops have had plenty of time to grow; this takes around 5 minutes. '''''Remember that attempting to pickpocket Martin may further your wait.'''''

Talk to him again and he will tell you rather crossly that there is something still wrong with the crops, disbelieving your story about fairies and accusing you of creating this problem. Anyhow, agree to investigate.

===Surprise!===
[[File:Fairy Nuff's grotto1.png|thumb|Fairy Nuff's grotto.]]
Go to [[Zanaris]], and head toward the bank. Just north of the bank is [[Fairy Nuff]]'s grotto. Walk in, and you'll see a short [[cutscene]]. Underneath one of the shelves is Fairy Nuff's [[nuff's certificate|certificate]]; pick it up. Studying the certificate turns up its back, which is covered with strange, fairy symbols.

Use the certificate with the [[fairy chef]], south of the bank. She will tell you that she's seen similar inscriptions on a sign near the mysterious ruins, that is the cosmic altar, in southern [[Zanaris]].

Head to the [[cosmic altar]] and search around behind it for a small stone tablet. It is a rune temple sign, with symbols similar to those on the back of the certificate. The sign reads: ''Cosmic Rune Altar''. You can now decode fairy Nuff's message by matching the symbols with the given key. ''Although you do not need to manually decode it, you must read the tablet to proceed.'' You discover that the back of the certificate reads:

:''The Godfather attacked us. We have fled to safety. If you are loyal to her majesty, find us by using the co-ordinates "AIR", "DLR", "DJQ", "AJS".''

===Fairy Transport===
[[File:Fairy Godfather Throne room.png|thumb|left|250px|The Godfather and his slackeys.]]
Talk to the [[Fairy Godfather]], in the room directly south of the Zanaris entrance. Tell him that the queen is missing, to which he visibly starts panicking and rushes to say that he will create a search party for her. The godfather gives you permission to use the fairy rings to 'help' you locate the queen. He asks you to speak to the [[co-ordinator]] outside the room to learn more about the rings.

After talking to the co-ordinator and being informed of the vast history of the fairy rings and the queen, head southwest to the fountains, where you should see a fairy ring. Talk to [[Fairy Fixit]] there, and then try and use the fairy rings while wielding a dramen or lunar staff.

<span style="color:#C04040">
'''''You may now use the fairy rings throughout RuneScape without finishing the quest, if you'd prefer.'''''</span>'' See our '''[[Fairy ring]]s''' guide for all the possible combinations.''

With fairy Nuff's certificate in your inventory, use the fairy ring four times in sequence, always returning back to Zanaris before using the next one:
#'''A-I-R''' (to a small island)
#'''D-L-R''' (Poison Waste in southern [[Isfadar]])
#'''D-J-Q''' (just a few steps away from the fairy ring in Zanaris)
#'''A-J-S''' (Queen's location)

If you end up on an island with some [[penguin (monster)|penguins]], you either made a mistake entering the codes, or you are not holding the certificate.

===Regrouping===
[[File:Fairy Tale II War room.png|thumb|260px|The War Room in the [[Fairy Resistance Hideout]].]]
You should hopefully be in the Fairy Queen's [[Fairy Resistance Hideout|new location]]. Just go up the path, and head to the north-eastern room. Talk to Fairy Nuff who, along with [[Fairy Very Wise]], informs you that the Queen is not well because the Godfather has hurt her by not returning her magic secateurs. As her essence is drained, she cannot retaliate without obtaining the secateurs, which you accept to bring back.

[[File:Fairy Tale II Healing the queen.png|thumb|left|220px|Fairy Nuff healing the queen.]]
Head back to Zanaris, and pickpocket the Fairy Godfather. If you fail, you will be teleported outside Zanaris, so try pickpocketing from behind or the side, and make sure neither of his henchmen are looking directly at you. You should get a golden [[queen's secateurs]]. Also, at this point, you will see [[ork]]s patrolling Zanaris.

You won't be able to travel back to the hideout by using '''A-J-S''', but the steps will be saved in your travel log. Therefore, you may simply select "Fairy Resistance HQ" from the travel log and press "teleport" to take you there, without having to travel to all the other three locations again.
{{clear}}

===Magic Essence===
Back at the fairy hideout, talk to Fairy Nuff and give her the secateurs. She will use them to rejuvenate the queen, but they do not work completely. Nuff tells you that she needs a certain [[magic essence potion]] to replenish the queen's missing life energy. To make the potion, you need to collect some starflowers and crushed gorak claw.

====Starflower====
[[File:Field of Starflowers.png|thumb|Starflowers!]]
Return to the fairy ring in Zanaris and use the code '''C-K-P''', which transports you to a [[cosmic plane]]. Move around for about 2 minutes whilst the [[starflower]]s grow. You can pass the time by talking to the [[Cosmic Being|being]] who lives there, contemplating the mysteries of the universe.

Pick a starflower when ready (49 farming needed), and add your harvest to the vial of water.
{{clear}}

====Gorak claws====
Return to Zanaris, and withdraw any armour and weapons, along with around 10 pieces of good food. Note that '''''protection prayers''''' do not work against goraks, but you may use boosting prayers. Goraks are '''very''' accurate, so take the best melee armour you have. Also, they have very low defence.

At the Zanaris fairy ring, use the sequence '''D-I-R''' to get to another plane full of [[gorak]]s. They are level 145 and occasionally drain stat points. Kill them, eating food when necessary, until you get a [[Gorak claws|gorak claw]]. Crush the claw with a pestle and mortar to get [[gorak claw powder]].

{{clear}}

===The Final Scene===
With any required herblore boosts, mix the starflower and crushed claw into a vial water to make a [[magic essence]] potion. Return to Fairy Nuff again.

Back at the hideout, use a dose of the magic essence potion on the queen, who finally regains her senses. As the queen angrily prepares to return to Zanaris and take back her throne, Fairy Very Wise and Fairy Nuff remind her that the Godfather has thugs and orks at his disposal, compared to her small band of loyalists, many of whom are injured. Her Majesty sees the flaw in the plan, and accepts the advice. The Fairy Godfather will continue to rule Zanaris — for now..

== Trivia ==
* This quest goes by several similar names in ''RuneScape'':
** 'Fairy Tale II - Cure a Queen' in the game window, when you click on the Quest Journal entry, and in the Quest Journal control panel.
** 'A Fairy Tale Part II - Cure a Queen' in the Knowledge Base.
* Upon the completion of this quest, one's [[Adventurer's Log]] will read: "The Fairy Queen hasn't regained her throne...yet. War must be prepared and troops mustered before the Godfather can sleep with the fishes." This is a reference to the Sicilian Mafia of New York City.
*In the QuestHelp Base the Quest is classed as an 'Intermediate' Quest. In the Quest Journal control panel the Quest is under the 'Experienced' tab.
*While holding the certificate if you speak to one of the sheep in Zanaris, your character will ask the sheep if it knows what the strange markings mean to which the sheep will say "The human's found some symbols and doesn't know what they mean so now it's cross-examining me and spoiling my routine!"
