Walkthrough overview

A brief summary of the quest, noting where each card is used. The OSRS Wiki has the full, authoritative walkthrough.

1
Travel to the Ruins of Uzer (necklace of passage to Eagles' Eyrie or fairy ring DLQ) and talk to the broken clay golem. Use soft clay on it to repair it — or mine and soften your own clay with a bracelet of clay and pickaxe.
- Means to enter the desert

2
The repaired golem asks for help defeating the demon Thammaron. Follow up the letter clue to Elissa in the north-east of the Digsite.
3
Read Varmen's notes in the Exam Centre, then recover the statuette via Elissa and the Varrock Museum.
4
Return to Uzer, place the statuette in the alcove and rotate all the statues to face the correct directions to open the demon's lair, revealing Thammaron already dead.
5
Report back to the golem; as it doesn't believe you, grind a phoenix feather with the pestle and mortar, combine with the vial, and write a new program on papyrus to reprogram it and complete the quest.
