# Start

  1. Talk to Varika at «Altar of Rites», northwest of «Town of Gludio». Press «Quest», then «Want to obtain power» - the quest is taken, and you immediately get Seed of Despair, the first of the four seeds.
  2. The same window has three buttons: «Seed of Anger» and «Seed of Horror» only tell you where to go, while «Seed of Lunacy» also gives you Hub Scent - without it nothing drops at the third stage. Press it.
  3. The other three seeds can be collected in any order. Below they are listed along the way: «School of Dark Arts» north of the altar, «Undine Waterfall» to the northeast, «Ruins of Agony» to the south.

# Seed of horror: School of Dark Arts

  1. Find Annika at the entrance to «School of Dark Arts». Press «Accept the request» - you get Candle.
  2. Go down into the school and kill Skeleton Hunter, Skeleton Hunter Archer or Misery Skeleton (levels 12-14). Each one drops Knee Bone with a 50% chance, you need 2.
  3. Return to Annika - she will take the bones and the candle and give you Seed of Horror.

# Seed of anger: Undine Waterfall and Swampland

  1. Go to «Undine Waterfall», north of «The Neutral Zone». Charkeren stands west of the waterfall. Press «Listen to his tale» - you get Lucky Key.
  2. Go south into «Swampland» and kill Marsh Zombie (level 13). Each one drops Family's Remains with a 50% chance, you need 3.
  3. Return to Charkeren - he will take the remains and the key and give you Seed of Anger.

# Seed of lunacy: Ruins of Agony

  1. Check that you have Hub Scent (the «Seed of Lunacy» button with Varika or a talk with Arkenia).
  2. Go to «Ruins of Agony» and kill Skeleton Scout (level 19) - they roam all over the ruins and west of them. Each one drops Heart of Lunacy with a 50% chance, you need 3.
  3. Return to «Altar of Rites» to Arkenia - she will take the hearts and the herbs and give you Seed of Lunacy.

# Reward and class transfer

  1. Return to Varika with all four seeds: Seed of Despair, Seed of Horror, Seed of Anger and Seed of Lunacy. The seeds are taken, and in return you get Dark Jewel.
  2. If this is the first first class transfer quest the character completes, they also get 163 800 adena, XP and SP. This part of the reward is not given again.
  3. The quest itself does not change your class. From level 20 take Dark Jewel to a Dark Elf Grand Master - for example, Xenos in «Gludin Village» or Tobias in «Town of Gludio».
  4. He will take the jewel and change your class to Dark Wizard, and on top of that give you 15 Shadow Item Exchange Coupon (D-Grade) and the extra reward for the class transfer.
