==Walkthrough==
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
===Starting off===
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
*Follow the [[River Lum]] near [[Edgeville]] until you reach the [[Mage of Zamorak]], or travel north over the [[Wilderness ditch]]; he wanders around Level 4-7 [[Wilderness]]. Talk to him, and he will explain to you that it is too dangerous to talk in the Wilderness.
 
  +

  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaa
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
   
*Talk to the mage back in [[Varrock]] at the [[Zamorak]] chaos temple (southeast of [[Aubury's Rune Shop]]).
 
'''Note:''' If you are wearing any [[Saradomin]] or [[Guthix]] items, the mage will''' NOT '''speak with you. Therefore, it is best to unequip any and all god related items (with the exception of Zamorakian items) before starting a conversation with the mage of Zamorak. Simply putting the items in your inventory is enough, so you don't need to bank them.
 
*Ask him where he gets his [[runes]] from when the question is available. He will tell you about the [[Abyss]] and that he is having problems. Say that you will help him.
 
   
  +
aaaaaa
===Getting the readings===
 
  +
aaaaa
[[File:Scrying orb detail.png|thumb|130px|The Scrying Orb]]
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
*He will then give you a [[scrying orb]]. He will explain that you need to travel to the [[rune essence mine]] from three different locations with the orb in your inventory. This will give the scrying orb readings of where you travelled from and how you got there.
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
*Travel to the rune essence mines from three of the five locations.
 
  +
aaaaaaaa
**It is suggested you travel from [[Aubury]] in [[Varrock]], Archmage [[Sedridor]] in the basement of the [[Wizards' Tower]] (south of [[Draynor Village]]) and [[Wizard Cromperty]] in [[East Ardougne]] (northeast of the marketplace).
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
**One may also travel from [[Brimstail]] at his cave southwest of the [[Grand Tree]] or [[Wizard Distentor]] at the [[Wizards' Guild]].
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[[File:Scrying orb full detail.png|thumb|130px|The Scrying orb after it has all the needed charges]]
 
  +
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
*When you are done, go back to the chaos temple in [[Varrock]]. Speak to the [[Mage of Zamorak|Zamorakian Mage]], and he will give you 1,000 [[Runecrafting]] [[experience]], an [[abyssal book]] and a [[small pouch]], used to hold 3 [[rune essence]]. Read the book, then speak to him again, asking "So what is this 'abyss' stuff?" He will tell you to talk to him in the wilderness to be teleported to the Abyss, and you complete the [[miniquest]].
 
*'''You must speak to the mage of Zamorak after finishing the quest in order to enter the Abyss otherwise he will tell you to talk to him again in Varrock when you try to teleport in the Wilderness.'''
 
 
==Reward==
 
*Ability to enter the [[Abyss]]
 
*{{skill clickpic|Runecrafting|1,000}} [[Runecrafting]] [[experience]]
 
*A [[small pouch]] (able to carry 3 [[pure essence]] or [[rune essence]])
 
 
==Required for completing==
 
Completion of the Abyss miniquest is required for the following:
 
*[[Devious Minds]]
 
*[[Wilderness Easy Diary]]
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*If one asks to be teleported from Varrock, the line ''"Beam me there, or whatever it is that you do!"'' appears. This is a reference to the phrase ''"{{wp|Beam me up, Scotty}}"'' from the ''{{wp|Star Trek: The Original Series|Star Trek}}'' television series.
