Walkthrough
Getting started
Speak to Dallas Jones near the Well of Goodwill at Home. He will tell you he suspects the Well of Goodwill being haunted. It has been acting strange lately, you suggest he'll need an adventure to help him out! He warns you his map shows an ancient tomb beneath the surface, and who knows what kind of dangers it possesses. Tell him you're going to look for more information.
Entering the Sewers
Enter the sewer through the manhole either west or east from the Well of Goodwill.
Investigate the swamp bubbles in one of the puddles. After you've done this, resurface by climbing up the pipe on the east and go back to Dallas Jones.
Investigating the Swamp Bubbles
Talk to Dallas Jones, you'll inform him about the gas bubbles and that you were unable to bring them, he gives you a pair of bellows to extract the swamp bubbles, and tells you about a colleague of him at the laboratory in Rimmington.
Go back to the sewers and click the swamp bubbles again, you'll extract the swamp bubbles with your bellows. Take it to the laboratory of Rimmington.
Researching the Swamp Bubbles
Travel to Rimmington and talk to Professor Manglethorp at the laboratory. Walk outside and operate the Fractionizing still. You'll empty the bellows in the still. Go back inside and talk to the professor. Professor Manglethorp tells you he has never seen anything like this before and that you have to warn Dallas Jones as quickly as possible!
Sir Prysin's key
Head back to Varrock palace, and go into the kitchen in the north-east corner of the ground floor[UK]1st floor[US]. If you do not already have a bucket of water, you can find an empty bucket up the stairs, in the bedroom to the north-east. With the bucket, return to the kitchen and use it on the sink (or any other water source, such as a fountain), to obtain a bucket of water.
Next, head outside through kitchen door and look for a drain near the wall north of the doorway. Use your bucket of water on the drain. If you do not do this, you cannot obtain the key. The key will be washed down the drain, so you must now retrieve it from the sewer below. Head east, out of the palace, and look for a manhole located south of the palace's east walls. It is marked by the File:Dungeon icon.png icon on the minimap. Once you find it, open the manhole and climb down to enter the sewer.
Template:Map:Demon Slayer key location
While in the sewer, go north-west and follow the path highlighted on the map above until you reach a stream. You should see a muddy patch to your left, next to a pile of skeletons. Examine this and you will find a rusty key.
Silverlight
Now that you have all three keys, head back to Sir Prysin in Varrock. Give him the keys, and he will give you Silverlight. Players can drop Silverlight and ask Sir Prysin for another one for free; after the quest he will charge 500. Equip the sword, get any food and armour you may need for combat, and prepare to fight Delrith.
If you have forgotten the magical incantation, you can speak with Aris at her tent in Varrock Square to hear it again.
When you're ready, head south of Varrock, and go east towards the stone circle surrounded by dark wizards. A cutscene will play of Delrith being summoned by the wizards after you enter the circle.
Banishing Delrith
The final part takes place in an instance of the Varrock stone circle, with Delrith and several dark wizards (two level 7 wizards and a level 20 wizard). Level 7 and 20 wizards will be aggressive to players with lower than 15 or 41 combat level respectively. Additionally, upon the cutscene finishing for the first time, one of the level 7 wizards will attack regardless of combat level. The level 20 wizard's maximum hit of 6 can threaten players with a low Hitpoints level, especially if the player has negative Magic Defence bonus. To leave, run to the edge at any time during the fight.
Because the fight takes place in a single-way combat zone, if you are already under attack from a dark wizard, you will need to kill or hide from it before you are able to begin combat with Delrith. It is recommended for lower-level players to approach from the south, and hide from wizards behind the southernmost stone wall until Delrith is nearby. Since the wizards do not respawn in the instance, it is also possible to kill them first, leave and restock, and then return to face Delrith.
Attack Delrith with Silverlight equipped. Despite his combat level of 27, the Silverlight's weakening effect will reduce Delrith's hitpoints to less than that of a cow. When he reaches 0 hitpoints, say the magical incantation. If the wrong incantation is said, Delrith regenerates to full health.
Pures and lower levels
For those wishing to attack with magic, wielding Silverlight and manually casting spells will also deal damage. Other methods include flinching him or using Confuse, Curse, or Weaken to make him easier to kill with melee. Ring of recoils can be used for this fight.
If you take too long to finish off Delrith, he will disappear and you will need to leave and re-enter the instance. If Delrith disappears during the dialogue to banish him the quest can still be completed by pressing "continue" until the end.
Congratulations, quest complete!
