The temporary work contract: Pay the entrance fee of 5,000 Zeny to Gatei Knumm, the Tower Keeper at the Hugel field (hu_fild01, 140,163), and enter the tower. Talk to the Guide Ditze Lappa on the 1st floor (tha_t01, 149,78): choose 'Temporary Work Contract', then 'Sure, I'd like to work for you.', confirm your name and choose 'Sign'. Only contracted workers may use the 3rd floor gate. With the contract the tower fee drops to 3,000 Zeny. Liei next to Ditze pays 1,000 Zeny for each Golden Ornament, Red Feather, Blue Feather or Cursed Seal you hand in.

Burled's favor: Talk to Burled, the Entrance Guide on the 2nd floor (tha_t02, 231,161). Choose 'Start a conversation.', then either question, then 'Just tell me about it.' When he finishes, pick 'What accident are you referring to?' and answer 'Ok! I will.' to take the favor. Answering 'Oh...' to his story still moves you ahead by one step; saying 'No, I won't.' makes him drop it and nothing changes. Burled also tells you about the one-way floors above the 4th.
Entrance Guide: -
Burled: the favor: You heard his story but left it there. Talk to Burled again (tha_t02, 231,161) and choose 'Start a conversation.'; he asks the favor again and you agree: explore the tower for him. Answering 'Oh...' to his story still moves you ahead by one step; saying 'No, I won't.' makes him drop it and nothing changes. Burled also tells you about the one-way floors above the 4th.

The first rune device: Gather at least 4 more players next to Burled and ask to go to the 3rd floor. On the 3rd floor go to the Rune Device (tha_t03, 67,70), choose 'Investigate it.' and break its energy field with a level 4 weapon in your right hand (a Taekwon kicks it open). You get the Red Key; pick 'Concentrate on it.' to read the vision. The gate opens only when at least 5 players stand in the waiting area next to Burled (tha_t02, 226,156 to 236,166); choose 'Let me go to 3rd floor.' and walk through within 30 seconds. Take the key only after Burled's request: the vision that moves the quest comes when the quest is at this exact point, and a key you already carry makes the device ignore you.
Rune Device: -
The second rune device: On the 4th floor use the Rune Device (tha_t04, 195,195). Type a 3-digit number with three different digits and no 0; the screen tells you how many digits are right and in the right place, and how many digits are right in total. Solve it to get the Yellow Key, then 'Concentrate on it.' After five wrong guesses the screen shows the answer, but the number changes on your next try. Take the key only after Burled's request: the vision that moves the quest comes when the quest is at this exact point, and a key you already carry makes the device ignore you.
Rune Device: -
The eagle statue: On the 5th floor click the Brilliant Statue by the eagle (tha_t05, 62,179), pick 'Stick the key into the crack...' and type the key names when asked: first Red Key for the left wing, then Yellow Key for the right. The beak opens and gives you the Blue Key. Pick 'Concentrate on it.' Both keys must be in your bag and the names must match. From the 5th floor up the passages only go one way, so plan your way out.
Brilliant Statue: -
The wheels: On the 6th floor click the Brilliant Statue (tha_t06, 226,230) with the Red, Yellow and Blue Keys in your bag and choose 'Investigate.', then 'Investigate the Wheels'. Make all five wheels end in the same position, for example: 1st Small Wheel - Press, 2nd Small Wheel - Raise, 1st Big Wheel - Lower, 2nd Big Wheel - Lower, 3rd Big Wheel - Vertically Shift. You get the Green Key; 'Concentrate on it.' 'Check Current Wheel Configuration' lists what each wheel is doing, and 'Reset Wheels' starts over. The small wheels and big wheels each answer to a different action, so a trial run helps. From the 5th floor up the passages only go one way, so plan your way out.
Brilliant Statue: -
The splendid sword: With the Red, Yellow, Blue and Green Keys in your bag go to the Splendid Sword on the 6th floor (tha_t06, 204,181). Choose 'Observe it.', grab it 'Towards the hilt of the sword' and 'Insert the sword into the hole'. A Black Key appears and a drawer opens with Varmunt's Note. The blade and the table cost you 20% of your HP, and lifting the sword away sends it back to the table. Burled expects you to bring the note back. Reward: Black Key, Varmunt's Note.
Splendid Sword: -
Burled's reward: Bring Varmunt's Note back to Burled (tha_t02, 231,161) and choose 'I found Varmunt's Journal...'. He keeps the secret with you and thanks you. The keys stay in your bag. The Charm Stone crystals on the 8th floor take them next, but that part has no quest state of its own. Reward: Old Purple Box, 120,000 Base EXP and 10,000 Job EXP.
