DescriptionGielinor is not the safest place to live - dragons, trolls, demons... dangerous and despicable monsters of all sorts roam free. In this quest, you must help a fellow adventurer that doesn't do so well against these threats. With perseverance and the magical help of the Moon Clan, there should be no monster that can't be beaten. But is that really true? How about the monsters in your dreams? How about your own inescapable fears? How would you defeat them? Well, you'll soon find out as a tough and often bizarre quest awaits those of a strong will!

Note: As opposed to the dream world in Lunar Diplomacy, the dream world in Dream Mentor is not safe and dying here is the same as dying in the rest of Gielinor: you will lose your hardcore status. The lectern is the only way to leave, as no other teleports will work (including the ring of life).

Use Astral Contact spell to make sure you get the right things for him. If your combat level is determined by your magic level, use robin hood hat, dragon chainbody, black d'hide chaps, infinity boots and ancient staff.

For a detailed explanation of how to combat the upcoming enemies, refer to the full quest guide.

Note: You cannot use Prayer. You cannot use emergency teleports - the only way to leave during the fight is using the lectern, however, you'll have to start over from the beginning.

Magic Strategy 1: If you have Ancient Magicks unlocked, a simple strategy would be to bring runes for Blood Burst and Ice Burst. Setting your staff to autocast Blood Burst while manually casting Ice Burst to freeze the enemy as needed. The Burst spells area of effect damage works well against the multiple Doubt's which spawn around you. The healing effect of Blood Burst can keep you alive if you run out of food.

This fight takes place in an instance.
On death, all unprotected items will be moved to a grave outside the instance. Any items left on the ground will be lost.
  • Light the Ceremonial Brazier in the dream hall building.
  • Talk to Cyrisus. (Chat 1)…
    1Yes, let's go!
  • During the fight, you can leave at any time by using the lectern, although this will force you to re-battle any defeated bosses.
  • Return to the Oneiromancer. (Chat 2)…
    2Cyrisus.
  • Congratulations, quest complete!
