edit Walkthrough
Talk to Martin the Master Gardener in Draynor Village. He will tell you to come back once his crops are grown. Don't pickpocket him, and after 5 minutes or so return. He will tell you rather crossly that there is still something wrong. Agree to investigate.

Fairy Nuff's grotto
Go to Zanaris, and head toward the bank. Just north of the bank is Fairy Nuff's grotto. Walk in, and you'll see a short cut scene.
Underneath one of the shelves is Fairy Nuff's healing certificate. Pick it up. If you lose it, you can get another by searching the shelves again.
Study the certificate: The back is covered in strange symbols.
Talk to the fairy chef (just south of the bank) about the certificate. She will tell you to go to the mysterious ruins (leading to the cosmic altar), also in Zanaris.
On the wall south of the mysterious ruins that lead to the Cosmic alter is a rune temple sign, with similar symbols on it. The sign says Cosmic Rune Altar. Using this, you can decode Fairy Nuff's certificate, showing that it reads:
The Godfather attacked us. We have fled to safety. If you are loyal to her majesty, find us by using the co-ordinates "AIR", "DLR", "DJQ", "AJS".

The Godfather
Talk to the Fairy Godfather near Chaeldar, pick the first option, and get permission to use the fairy rings. From this point, the whole fairy ring network is available to you.
Talk to the Co-ordinator for her to explain about the fairy rings. She hovers outside the room the Fairy Godfather is in.
Head back to the centre of Zanaris near the fountain and you should see a fairy ring. Talk to Fairy Fixit there, and then try and use the fairy rings. See our Fairy rings guide to see what all the possibilities are.
Use the fairy ring four times, always returning back to Zanaris before using the next one: AIR (to small island), DLR (another small island), DJQ (nowhere), AJS. If you end up on an island with some penguins, it is because you need to be holding Nuff's certificate - go get it and start again.

The War Room in the Fairy Resistance Hideout.
You should hopefully be in the Fairy Queen's new location just go down the corridor and enter the middle room, talk to Fairy Nuff there, and she will tell you that the Queen is not well, and that the Godfather has betrayed her.
Back to Zanaris and pickpocket the Fairy Godfather. If you fail you will be teleported outside Zanaris, so try pickpocketing from the side. You should get some golden Queen's Secateurs. Also, at this point orks start to appear out of nowhere.
Take this back to Fairy Nuff (sequence AIR, DLR, DJQ, AJS).

The Queen and Nuff can be found in the NE part of the dungeon.
The Queen is not completely revived so you now have to make a magic essence potion.
Go back to the bank and equip your armour and weapons, and take some food. Prayer potions will not help you.
Return to the main fairy ring and use the sequence DIR to get to a room full of goraks. Kill one or more of these - protection prayers are ineffective against them so eat food as required. They are level 145 and occasionally drain stat points. Kill them (you can stand inside the fairy ring for protection if the gorak is trying to attack someone else) until you get a Gorak claw. Crush the claw with a mortar and pestle to get Gorak claw powder.

Starflowers!
Return to the main fairy ring, and this time use the code CKP which transports you to a higher plane. Hang around for about 2 minutes whilst the starflowers grow, and pick one when ready (level 49 farming needed).
Put the starflower in a vial of water, and add the Gorak claw powder in to make a Magic essence potion. The Gorak may have lowered your stats while fighting, so you may have to wait until your herblore restores, or you can drink a Super restore potion.
Note: 57 Herblore is needed to make a magic essence potion, but for those who have completed the parts of Recipe for Disaster up to where you can make Evil Dave's Stew of DOOM!!, it is possible to beat this quest at 51 Herblore. The closer you are to 57 though the easier it will be, but the minimum requirement is 51 Herblore.
Return to Fairy Nuff (sequence AIR, DLR, DJQ, AJS). If you have problems, remember you must have Nuff's certificate with you, otherwise the sequence won't work. Use the magic essence potion on the Queen, she will recover, and you will complete the quest.
Note: If you return to talk to Martin the Master Gardener in Draynor Village he will still tell you to come back once his crops are grown. Hopefully he'll pay up in the next installment
