Rune Mysteries
Rune Mysteries is a novice level quest, and a requirement for mining rune essence within the Rune Essence mine or using lamps and books on runecraft.
Note that multiple air talismans can be obtained by using the drop trick at Duke Horacio. Grabbing 50-200 talismans can be useful for early runecraft training methods such as crafting air tiaras or mist runes. For details, see this guide.

Walkthrough
Talk to Duke Horacio on the Template:FloorNumber of Lumbridge Castle, and ask him if he has any quests to give out. He will explain that although he himself has no tasks for the player, he did find a strange talisman. Curious about its origin, he will give you an air talisman and ask you to bring it to the arch mage of the Wizards' Tower. Note that at this point, it is possible to use the drop trick to collect any amount of spare air talismans, either for banking some Runecraft experience on ironman accounts, or for making a small amount of money. See the money making guide for more info.
Go to the Wizards' Tower, which is south of Draynor Village. Once there, descend the ladder into the basement and converse with Archmage Sedridor. He will take your air talisman and give you a research package. He will then instruct you to deliver it to Aubury in Varrock.
Aubury is located south of Varrock's east bank, inside of his rune shop. Talk to Aubury, and he will give you some notes and instruct you to deliver them back to Wizard Sedridor.
Make your way back to the Wizards' Tower, and talk to Archmage Sedridor once more. He will give you back your air talisman and will explain to you the basics of Runecraft.
