If you want to get **kudos** from the **Varrock Museum** you'll need to get the book **Dagon'hai History**. You'll find it in one of the two bookcases furthest east. After the quest you can give the book to the **Historian Minas** on the 1st floor of the **Varrock museum**.

4. Head to the **Chaos Altar**, **with 15 chaos runes in your inventory**. Entering the altar requires either a **chaos talisman or tiara**, or access to the **Abyss**. (I took the route through **Edgeville** to **Abyss**)

5. When you have reached the **Chaos Altar**, you must use your **wand** on the altar, which you got from **Surok Magis**. This will absorb the **15 chaos runes** to turn the wand into the **Infused wand**.

6. Return to the **library of Varrock**, and talk to **Surok Magis** with the **infused wand** and an **empty bowl**. He will then give you **Surok's letter** for **Rat Burgiss**.
