Walkthrough
Getting started
Speak with Mysterious Michael in the Lumbridge cemetery. He tells you he is sort of an Archaeologist and searching for some long lost secrets in an ancient tomb of the barbarians. Despite them living close to Edgeville, Michael says he's looking for their ancestors, who were located in the swamps near Mount Quidamortem.
He tells you a certain relic is required for safe passage. This relic comes from the ruler of the undead, it was to powerful, so it was split up to 4 pieces, divided under his minions. You offer him your assistance. Click 'Yes, i am always in for an adventure' to finish the dialog and start the quest.
Obtaining the Skull Sceptre
Before continuing on with step 3 you will want to create the runed sceptre, allowing you to run through the cave without taking damage from the skeletons.
The sceptre is split into 4 pieces, divided under the undead minions.
Each minion drops a unique piece which can be attached to it's counterpart.
These four pieces together make 2 pieces, which can be put together to get the Skull Sceptre.
Top of Sceptre
The Top of Sceptre is dropped by either Ghosts (level 19) or Skeletons (level 22) which can be found in the Catacombs of Kourend or the Edgeville Dungeon.
Bottom of Sceptre
The Bottom of Sceptre is dropped by Ghouls (level 42) which can be found south of the Slayer Tower in Canifis.
Left Skull Half
The Left Skull Half of the Sceptre is dropped by Skeletal Wyverns (level 140) which can be found in the lair beneath Port Sarim, they also have a special teleport option from the Training Teleport menu.
Right Skull Half
The Right Skull Half is dropped by Ankous (level 86) which can be found in the Catacombs of Kourend.
Creating the Skull Sceptre
After obtaining the Top, Bottom, Left skull, and Right skull the player will combine each of two pieces together (ex. Top and Bottom/Left skull and Right skull), you will then get two pieces (Runed Sceptre) and (Strange Skull), combine these two together to make the Skull Sceptre.
Searching for the Ancient Tombs
Michael mentioned a relic which belonged to the ruler of the undead, it is split up and divided under his minions. Mount Quidamortem is where the Chambers of Xeric are located in the Kebos Lowlands.
Use the mini-game teleport to raids (::cox), walk east then the path to the southwest. Go west until you can move around the hill to go east, then south past the water.
Follow the several colored paths to the south until the path becomes brown, then follow the path east and then eventually north until you reach the swamp.
Go all the way north until you reach a pyramid, this is quite a long walk. On your way there you will find a lizardmen lair which is inaccessible.
Around the Pyramid you will find ancient tombs where there are a few you can enter, they will all lead to the same place. This is where the sceptre from step 2 comes into play (equip it).
Entering the Ancient Tombs
Enter the Ancient Tombs and don't forget to bring the Skull Sceptre, equip it before you enter the tombs.
When you enter the tombs you will notice the skeletons are not aggressive.
Walk the route leading to the Ancient Barbarian Spirit, even he will 'obey' you now. You do not have to kill him. Walk past him and you will see a portal with a chest behind it, containing two Dragon Warhammers, take a good look, cause this is the closest you will get to this chest.
Walk further until you reach an ancient coffin and open it.
Finishing the Quest
When you open the ancient coffin you will fall into a lair, right onto a pile of bones.
Search the skeleton and the quest is completed!
Beware, when you've searched the skeleton you will come right into the boss lair with the new bosses, walking towards you aggressively. The Skull Sceptre will not protect you against them.
Congratulations, quest complete!
