== Overview ==
* The armor from this quest may be further upgraded via the [[Halls of Knorr]] quest.
* This quest requires some lever pulling, but the doors stay open long enough for a single person to complete it.

== Walkthrough & Notes ==
=== Part 1: Obtain Supplies ===
# Locate the randomly appearing wilderness vendors, or obtain their items from other players.
#* [[Zairente Ra-Yao]] - Sells {{Itemlink|Peculiar Old Dagger}}, a required item.
#* {{Optional}} [[Hasina bint Rira]] - Sells {{Itemlink|Puzzle Box (Hieromancer's Armor)|Puzzle Box}}. Used to obtain the [[Decoded Untranslated Text]].
#* {{Optional}} [[Spertat the Ursuin Hunter]] - Sells {{Itemlink|Unreadable Text}}. Used to obtain the Decoded Untranslated Text.
# Obtain a {{Itemlink|Vial of Organic Acid}}, a low drop rate trophy from various [[Grievver]]s, including [[Virulent Grievver]]s, [[Venomous Grievver]]s, [[Bile Grievver]]s, [[Bane Grievver]]s and [[Harrower Grievver]]s
#* Note: The [[Cave of the Escaped Thief]] at 71.1N, 50.2W (landscape, no level requirement) from the [[Sword of Bellenesse]] quest is ideal for quickly hunting down a {{Itemlink|Vial of Organic Acid}}, as it is populated by numerous high-level Grievvers on a quick spawn.
# Use the acid on the dagger to obtain the {{Itemlink|Glittering Crystalline Key}}.
# Locate a [[Humming Crystal Portal]], which spawns randomly in certain wilderness areas like the Direlands and Linvak Mountain Range. The portal is tiable, though not summonable, so if you chance across it before you have the acid or dagger you can save the tie.
# At the [[Humming Crystal]], use the Glittering Crystalline Key on the [[Strange Humming Crystal]] to obtain the {{Itemlink|Lyceum Recall Gem}}.

The following steps can be done in either order, and there are advantages to each.
: '''Advantages of going to the Hieromancer Halls first:'''
:* If you are already at the Humming Crystal, the exit portals will bring you very close to the Halls.
:* If you want the {{Itemlink|Globe of Auberean}}, made from the {{Itemlink|Blue Orb}}, you must obtain the blue orb in the Halls before heading to the Lyceum.
: '''Advantage of going to the Lyceum first:'''
:* If you want to experiment with the color of your armor, or are unsure of your success rate, it is better to obtain the unkindled armor first and then go to the Halls, where you can pick up as many kindling stones as you need.

=== Part 2: Hieromancer's Halls ===
# While still at the [[Humming Crystal]], tie to or use the [[Exit Portal (Humming Crystal)|Exit Portal]]. It drops close to the [[Hieromancers' Halls]]
# Enter the Halls. Follow the map to reach the {{Itemlink|Silver Kindling Stone}}, {{Itemlink|Sea Blue Kindling Stone}} and {{Itemlink|Sea Grey Kindling Stone}}.
# Obtain the Kindling stones you need. It takes about 25 seconds for the stone to respawn. Color is purely for style and has no effect on the stats or spells on the finished armor. If you want Thaumaturgic Plate Armor - armor for trained War Magic - you need 1 stone per piece of armor. If you want Exarch Plate Armor - armor for specialized War Magic - you need 2 stones per piece of armor.
# {{Optional}} After obtaining your kindling stones, head deeper in to obtain the {{Itemlink|Blue Orb}}.

=== Part 3: Ishilai Lyceum ===
# Use the Lyceum Recall Gem to send yourself to the [[Ishilai Lyceum]].
# Take the {{Itemlink|Slip of Paper}} and present it to [[Eaushi the Trainer]]. It will teleport you into the [[Lyceum Training Grounds]].
# Take the west hallway for the easiest difficulty test. Kill the [[Tenuous Nephol Golem]] and loot the {{Itemlink|Small Pale Crystal}}. You may have to kill several golems before obtaining a crystal. Take the exit portal.
# Re-enter the Training Grounds. Take the north hallway for the middle difficulty test. Kill the [[Diaphanous Nephol Golem]] and loot the {{Itemlink|Pale Crystal}}. You may have to kill several golems before obtaining a crystal. Take the exit portal.
# Re-enter the Training Grounds. Take the east hallway for the hardest difficulty test. Kill the [[Turbid Nephol Golem]] and loot the {{Itemlink|Large Pale Crystal}}. You may have to kill several golems before obtaining a crystal. Take the exit portal.
# Present the three crystals to Eaushi the Trainer to receive {{Itemlink|Unkindled Thaumaturgic Plate Coat}}, {{Itemlink|Unkindled Thaumaturgic Plate Girth}} and {{Itemlink|Unkindled Thaumaturgic Plate Leggings}}.
# {{Optional}} While at the Lyceum, complete any of the following tasks.
#* Kill a [[Guardian Golem]]. Loot the {{Itemlink|Trunk Key}} from its corpse. Unlock the [[Trunk]] to obtain {{Itemlink|Sasalia's Dress}}.
#* Head out of the castle and to the upper building and obtain the {{Itemlink|Lightweight Tome}}, found in the basement library.
#* If you obtained a Blue Orb in the Hieromancer's Halls, give it to Eaushi the Trainer to obtain the {{Itemlink|Globe of Auberean}}.
#* Enter the Lyceum Training Grounds. Kill the golems until one drops a {{Itemlink|Sunstone Geode}}. Give it to Eaushi the Trainer to obtain the {{Itemlink|Hieromancer's Orb}}.
#* Enter the Lyceum Training Grounds. With Lockpick, unlock the 350 resistance chest and loot {{Itemlink|A Boot}} and {{Itemlink|Another Boot}}. Combine to create the {{Itemlink|Boots of the Vault}}.
#* While at the Lyceum, present Eaushi the Trainer with the various items from this quest. The golem often gives a response.

=== Part 4: Kindling ===
# Add one kindling stone to each piece of armor to create Thaumaturgic Plate Armor - armor for trained War Magic.
# Add a second kindling stone to each piece of armor to create Exarch Plate Armor - armor for specialized War Magic.
# Failing any step reverts the piece to the unkindled state.
# Skill increases chances of applying the kindling stone, but there is no hard cap. It is recommended that you apply the kindling stones in the Heiromancer's Hall if you are lower level to have unlimited chances.
# Adding a third stone to a piece of Exarch Plate Armor reverts it to the unkindled state, allowing for the color to be changed.

{{Dialog|
;Eaushi the Trainer
|The golem stirs to life at your touch.  "Kiya auranil..." it grumbles, then pauses
|In your mind, a mild voice says, "Good day. It has been many turns of the stars since this servant has greeted visitors. Welcome to the Ishelai Lyceum, serving in good faith His Most Serene Majesty Kellin II.
|"If you are a student, the written permission of the caloyer is required for me to send you to the trials.

;Handing in Slip of Paper
|You give Eaushi the Trainer Slip of Paper

|{{Magic|Eaushi the Trainer teleports you with Portal Sending.}}

;Opening the First Threshold, Lyceum Training Grounds
|The door swings wide, and a melodious voice in your mind says, "Beyond lays the first and easiest test. Once you jump into the abyss, you may not return this way. You must enter the test grounds again later."

;Opening the Second Threshold, Lyceum Training Grounds
|The door swings wide, and a melodious voice in your mind says, "Beyond lays the second test, more difficult than the previous. Once you jump into the abyss, you may not return this way. You must enter the test grounds again later."

;Opening the Third Threshold, Lyceum Training Grounds
|The door swings wide, and a melodious voice in your mind says, "Beyond lays the last and most grueling test. Once you jump into the abyss, you may not return this way. You must enter the test grounds again later."

;Kindling armor, first attempt (success)
|With a burst of warmth and heat, the Kindling Stone fuses itself into the [coat/girth/leggings]. This piece of [color] colored Thaumaturgic Plate may now be worn!

;Kindling armor, first attempt (failure)
|Your war magic skill is insufficient to kindle this piece of armor. Your Kindling Stone breaks!

;Kindling armor, second attempt (success)

|You give Eaushi the Trainer Boots of the Vault.

|Eaushi the Trainer tells you, "This task was given to them by Caerlin I, at the behest of the mage Asheron."

;Sasalia's Dress interaction
|You give Eaushi the Trainer Sasalia's Dress.
|Eaushi the Trainer tells you, "This was once worn by the mage Sasalia, who became one of our instructors. In addition to the combat arts, Sasalia was also a master of culinary magic."

|Eaushi the Trainer tells you, "This book was crafted by Rurinah, a member of the last class of students here. She was quite skilled in the art of parchment-making."

|Eaushi the Trainer gives you Lightweight Tome.
|Eaushi the Trainer tells you, "This servant recalls her well - a terribly serious silver-haired girl, given to calling more lighthearted people 'fools.'"

;Permission Slip interaction
|You give Eaushi the Trainer Permission Slip.
|Eaushi the Trainer tells you, "This golem fears it does not recognize these letters, young master. It humbly apologizes. This golem was granted the capacity to impress its words upon the softly glowing mind, but not to read languages other than its own."
|Eaushi the Trainer gives you Permission Slip.
