Walkthrough

• You must zone after completing the previous quest before you can start this quest. Quest cannot be started if you are currently on Lost for Words or The Sixth Ministry.
• Tosuka-Porika informs you that The Library of Magic wants you to help retrieve its overdue library books.
• In this case, a Hume by the name of Orn has checked out the book "Art for Everyone", but has failed to return it by the due date.
• After you accept he tells you to talk to Furakku-Norakku, behind the counter in the same room, who gives you an "Overdue Book Notification" (key item) to give to Orn.
• Orn can be found in Hostelry Room #2 above the Timbre Timbers Tavern (F-10).
• He tells you about how some Yagudo waylaid him and how he had to throw things at them to escape, including the book. Orn asks you to request for an extension for him. Speak to him again and he will tell you he heard that the Yagudo store their stolen items in the Treasure Room of Giddeus.
• If you want you can ask Furakku-Norakku for an extension, but it is not necessary.
• To save time, you may wish to purchase or obtain a Silver Beastcoin before proceeding.
• Head to Giddeus and go down one level through a side tunnel at G-8 or I-8. The Yagudo in the tunnels can drop Silver Beastcoins.
• Head to G-6 Treasure Room on 2nd map. There is a Yagudo NPC patrolling the Treasure Room named Quu Bokye (not Uu Zhoumo) who wants a Silver Beastcoin for the book.

• If you have the DRK AF quest Dark Legacy active and are ready for the battle with Vaa Huja the Erudite, Quu Bokye will not ask for a Silver Beastcoin but will mention a Yagudo Cherry instead. You must defeat Vaa Huja the Erudite before Quu Bokye will initiate Silver Beastcoin dialogue.
• If you have the quest The Lost Book active, he'll ask for a Mythril Beastcoin instead. You may still trade him the Silver Beastcoin for this quest.

• Trade him the Silver Beastcoin and he will give you "Art For Everyone".
• After obtaining the book, you may wish to talk to Orn again before returning it - this is just for a more complete dialogue, you can skip this without any impact on the quest. He would show some gratefulness and ask you to help return it to the library for him.
• Head back to Windurst Waters and talk to Furakku-Norakku to complete the quest.
