The Giant Dwarf

Walkthrough
To start, speak to the Dwarven Boatman inside the mine east of Rellekka. Ask to go to Keldagrim. A cutscene follows that will introduce you to the Red Axe quest series. He will crash his boat into the giant dwarf statue. You will be arrested, and taken to Commander Veldaban.

Commander Veldaban will ask you to replace the statue. Talk to Blasidar the Sculptor. He lives in the eastern side of Keldagrim, across the bridge, south of the kebab shop. He will make the statue if you can get him clothes, an axe and boots fit for a king. These three sections may be done in any order.

Clothes Fit For a King
Talk to Vermundi who is in the south-western corner of the east marketplace (indicated by the silk symbol) and ask her about making the King's Clothes. She can, but first she needs a picture of the clothes. Talk to the Librarian in the house in the northeast corner of west Keldagrim and he will tell you to search the library for a book about Dwarven Clothes. Search the bookcase in the north-west corner with a ladder in front of it to find the Book on costumes. If you weigh 30 kg or more, you will be unable to climb it. You can deposit your items in the nearby bank to reduce your weight. You must speak with the librarian before you are able to find the book. Take the book back to Vermundi who needs 1 Coal (there are rocks in the north-east of the city) and 1 set of logs (there are dead trees right outside the cave) to get the clothing machine running. Use them on the Spinning Machine and use your Tinderbox on the Spinning Machine. (You may have to unwield any items, if you fail to light the logs repeatedly). Now pay her 200gp for the exquisite clothes. Go back to the sculptor's house and give the exquisite clothes to his model.

An Axe Fit For a King
Talk to Santiri, who is in the sword shop all the way in the north west of west Keldagrim. He talks about how his family came to possess the Battleaxe, and then mentions that it has been damaged and that the Sapphires on the hilt had either been stolen or washed away.

Use three sapphires on it to rebuild the hilt. He then says that the blade itself is not up to scratch anyway, but that only an Imcando Dwarf could repair it. Santiri will then refer you to the librarian, also known later as Hugi, just east of his shop, go there and query about where to find an Imcando Dwarf.

If you have completed The Knight's Sword quest, your character will mention that he knows an Imcando dwarf and you can disregard the next part and just go find Thurgo. However, if you have not yet reached the part where you learn about the Imcando, then go to Reldo in the Varrock Library and he will teach you about them. IMPORTANT! You must talk to the librarians in Keldagrim first about the Imcando and then to Reldo; going to Reldo or Thurgo alone will elicit no special Giant Dwarf Quest dialogue. Reldo is also the starting character for the Shield of Arrav Quest, if you do not want to start the quest now, just avoid choosing the, "I seek a quest!" dialogue.

In order to get there, you can use a cart in the eastern part of Keldagrim to ride to the Grand Exchange, other than using a varrock teleport or walking there. Since the Lodestone update, the quickest way to get there is probably by using the Home Teleport spell and teleporting directly to Port Sarim (as long as you have already unlocked the lodestone), and walking due south. Alternatively, if you have access to the fairy ring system, the code to Mudskipper Point is A-I-Q. Another quick way to get here is by using a Clan Vex. to teleport to the Clan Camp and walk south from there.

Go to Thurgo with an iron bar and a redberry pie, and ask him to repair the axe. He is in the house with an anvil symbol in Mudskipper Point, south-east of Rimmington and south of Port Sarim. When Thurgo is finished with the axe, you have the option to return immediately to Keldagrim (one-time teleport) or to continue exploring near mudskipper's point. If you choose to remain however, Thurgo will not offer to return you to Keldagrim later. Whatever means you use to return to Keldagrim, use the axe on the model to give it to him.

Boots Fit For a King
Go to the south-west anvil on the west side of Keldagrim (south of the Black Guards' HQ) and ask Saro about the boots. He sold them to Dromund, who lives north of the bank. Go to Dromund's house, which is just north of the bank, and speak to Dromund.

When finished, take the left boot from the table when he is not looking. His back has to be turned to successfully steal the boot. (Note:  If you try taking the boots before talking to Saro, a message will pop up saying, "You do not need this boot.")

Go outside and around the house until you are at the window next to the Right boot, and use Telegrab on the boot from the outside when Dromund is facing away from you (the regular spell book is required to do this). The two boots will then automatically combine in your inventory to form a pair of exquisite boots.

King Needs a Face
Give the items to the model, if you have not done so already, and talk to Blasidar again. He will tell you that the directors of the consortium cannot agree on the face for the statue (each company wants its own directors face). Your job is to get an agreement amongst the Consortium members. There are eight mining companies in the Consortium, each stationed in the upstairs of the marketplace. You need to impress and join ANY ONE of them. The companies are:


 * The Blue Opal
 * The Brown Engine (Only male players who have completed the Fremennik trials may join)
 * The Green Gemstone
 * The Purple Pewter
 * The Red Axe (The player cannot join this company)
 * The Silver Cog
 * The White Chisel
 * The Yellow Fortune (Only female players may join)

Talk to the Secretary of the company that you want to work for. You will be given a task to collect a certain kind of ore within a time limit (depends on task, approximately 15 minutes). The easiest way to complete the tasks set by the secretary is to have 25 ores, from clay to mithril. All ores except clay may be bought from the Blast furnace. The secretary will ask for 2 to 5 unnoted ores each time. You may not ask the secretary for a new task if you cannot do the one you have been given.

After completing five tasks, the secretary informs you that the director wishes to speak with you. Once the secretary allows you, you will now have to do multiple tasks for the director (but which are not mandatory: you may skip this part and just ask to join the company-skip to Art by Committee). The Director will ask for bars of the metals listed above in groups of 2 to 5 as well.

Some of the methods for completing the directors' tasks are:
 * 1) Once you receive a task, accept it and immediately ride to Varrock. Use the mine carts to travel back and forth between Keldagrim and Varrock. Run to the Grand Exchange and buy the bars, then take the cart back to Keldagrim.
 * 2) Find out what bars are needed and buy them from the blast furnace and use superheat item on them (level 43 Magic, 1 nature rune and 4 fire runes are required).
 * 3) Bring 25 of one type of bar and repeatedly talk to the director until the bar you have brought is needed. NOTE: move to end the conversation on tasks for other metals, do NOT say "No thanks", as you will have to start over at the secretary after 3 refusals.

Art by Committee
After you have done the tasks for the director, ask to join the company. Then volunteer to support the director at the next Consortium meeting. You will get a message telling you to return to Commander Veldaban who will take you to the meeting (an amusing cutscene will play). You will support the director and receive some Meeting notes as well as your reward.
