The Canary Calls is a medium level 85 quest located in the Thesead mines.

Preview

The player approaches Grenot, a coal miner that says that he and his crew can't get in the mines because of a gas that makes villagers ill. The player goes in to fix it, but then things go south.

Stage 1

» Speak to Grenot outside the Thesead coal mine.

Location

Thesead 676, 78, -5019

Wynncraft Map

Dialogue:

• Grenot: If you're here to get some coal, we're all out. It's like we told everyone else, the mine isn't safe.
• Grenot: Wait, you don't know what's happening here?
• Grenot: Coal is the heart of Thesead, it provides us with fuel, warmth, and wealth. Usually it's pretty easy to supply, since we mine it right here.
• Grenot: But recently the mine filled with a strange gas. It's poisonous and makes everyone who inhales it extremely sick.
• Grenot: If we could just get inside, we could fix the problem. Until the mine is cleared, we can't get any coal to Thesead.
• Grenot: We've only seen how the gas affects villagers, I wonder if it is less potent for humans...
• Grenot: If you are willing to take the risk, we would greatly reward you for helping us restore the mine to full operation.

Stage 2

» Enter the coal mine.

Dialogue:

• This must be the gas Grenot was talking about, luckily it doesn't seem to affect you...

Stage 3

» Progress through the coal mine.

Dialogue:

• This crack must be the source of the gas. Maybe you can use something here to seal it...

Spoiler alert: The hidden text contains spoilers relating to the solution of the minecart puzzle.

Configure the tracks by stepping on the pressure plates so that the minecart follows the route shown in the picture. Press the green button to spawn a minecart. At the crossing you have to switch the track while the minecart is in the loop going counter-clockwise. At the hill you have to push the minecart up a bit. For best results go to the hill before the minecart arrives there. When the minecart drops in the crack, it closes and the nausea goes away. At the same time a hole in the wall next to the buttons appear. Go through the exit to advance to the next stage. It closes after a while.

• The crack closes, and stops the gas from pouring out. It seems an exit has appeared, too.

Stage 4

» Escape the coal mine!

Dialogue:

• Even though you contained the gas, there appears to be some leftover. That thing must've been responsible.
• With all this fire, the leftover gas might make this place explode! Get out of here, quickly!
• That was a close call, but it seems you made it out safely.

Stage 5

» Return to Grenot.

Dialogue:

• Grenot: What happened? I heard the explosion, and when one of the other miners went to check what happened, the gas was gone!
• Grenot: Well, I have a hunch that you were responsible for it. I don't know how you did it, but that was extremely brave.
• Grenot: Even after I told you how dangerous that gas is, you still went in to stop it. Now we can get coal to the town again! Ha! Only a Human would care about his fellow men!
• Grenot: On behalf of all of Thesead, I thank you. All right everyone; Thesead needs a lot of coal, so get to work!

Tips

• When you see the magma cube, be prepared to run.

Trivia

• The thing that was causing the gas to flood the mines was most likely a Fleris.
• This is the first quest implemented to use a timer on screen for an action stage.
• The quest is named after a security measure miners did in the past - they carried a cage with a bird with them to detect dangerous gasses. If the bird died, the area was not safe. In this quest we are the bird.
• This quest will be updated in 2.0. For the upcoming version, see The Canary Calls (2.0).
