Walkthrough

Mizgog's little helper

Make your way to the Wizards' Tower, south of Draynor Village and over a long stone bridge. Climb the stairs, and go up to the 2^nd3^rd floor^[?]. Talk to Wizard Mizgog and ask him questions to find out that he needs your help. He will tell you that Wizard Grayzag's imps have stolen his beads and he wants you to get them back for him. He needs you to collect:

A black bead (870)
A yellow bead (868)
A red bead (984)
A white bead (1,092)

Obtaining beads

To obtain the beads, you may buy them from the Grand Exchange for 3,814, receive them in a trade with another player, or you can simply kill imps instead. Imps can be found throughout Gielinor. There are several good spots to kill imps including: east of the Ardougne Monastery, on top of the Karamja Volcano (be aware of level 14 scorpions in this area), or by the southern entrance to Falador. Imps may teleport away when in combat making them harder to kill, beads are also an uncommon drop, thus many players will often trade for beads instead to avoid the hassle of finding the beads themselves.

Once you have all four beads, return to Wizard Mizgog and give them to him to finish the quest. He won't accept them one at a time, so ultimate ironmen should plan to get the whole thing done at once.

Congratulations, Quest Complete!

 ==Walkthrough==
-===Getting started===
+===Mizgog's little helper===
-Make your way to the [[Wizards' Tower]], which is south of [[Draynor Village]] and over a stone bridge. You will know you have arrived at the right place if you see level 9 [[wizard]]s there. Climb the stairs, and go up to the {{FloorNumber|3}}. Talk to [[Wizard Mizgog]] and ask him questions to find out that he needs your help. He will tell you that [[Wizard Grayzag|Grayzag's]] [[imp]]s stole his [[bead]]s and he wants you to get them back for him. He needs you to get:

+*A [[white bead]] ({{Coins|{{GEP|White bead|1}} }})
+===Obtaining beads===
-To obtain the beads, you can buy them from the [[Grand Exchange]], get them from another player, or if you want to, you can kill imps. Imps can be found almost anywhere. One possible place, however, is on the island of [[Karamja]], specifically on top of the [[Karamja Volcano]]. There are a few imps there, but they are guarded by level 14 [[scorpion]]s, so if you're lower than level 29, look for imps around the [[Falador]] entrances and the outskirts of [[Lumbridge]]. Keep killing imps until you have all four beads on you. The imps will sometimes teleport, making them annoying and hard to kill.

-A large number of imps can also be located in between the [[Ardougne Monastery]] and [[Tower of Life (building)|Tower of Life]] south of [[Ardougne]].
+'''Congratulations, Quest Complete!'''
-Another place to find and kill imps is the southern entrance to Falador. Besides having around 3 imp respawns, it's a [[multicombat area]], so you may enlist a friend to help you weaken the imps.
-Note that the beads can be traded between players, and sold to stores. Many players will often pay high prices for beads to avoid the hassle of finding the beads themselves.
-Once you have all four beads, return to Wizard Mizgog and give them to him to finish the quest.
