Walkthrough

Naja will require you to successfully complete three mini-games. If you fail any portion, wait one real-life minute and speak to Naja again.

Trial 1 : Push-ups

  • In this trial, you must count three NPCs doing push-ups and determine who did the least.
    • A reliable and low-tech way to do this is use a piece of paper and make a mark in three different sections each time a NPC does a push-up.
    • It is either one of the three, or none.


Trial 2 : Sit-ups

  • In this trial, you must give a "message advancement prompt" with proper timing as the three NPCs do sit-ups. To pass, you must time at least 9 out of 10 advancements prompts correctly.
    • You must press enter/accept when a sit-up is completely finished.
      • If your timing is correct, you'll hear a sharp whistle. If your timing is off, you'll hear a dull whistle. Audio is helpful to confirm correct timing, but is not required.
      • Correct timing is when the animation is completely finished.
      • The Windower addon Enternity must be unloaded for this trial, as it will repeatedly queue the advancement prompt.
    • You can practice indefinitely with Abquhbah.
    • The real challenge will involve three NPCs with slightly different timings. You must press enter/accept when the slowest NPC finishes.


Trial 3 : Running

  • In this final trial, you must give prompts to the three NPCs so that they finish running at the same time.
    • If a NPC falls behind, quickly select their name from the menu to blow a whistle to make them catch up.
    • If you select a NPC when they aren't behind, you will be penalized and can fail the trial.
    • After the NPCs have stopped running, select "Not now" to finish the exercise.

After the final trial is complete, speak to Naja to finish your quest.
