:''Main Article: [[Neopets: The Darkest Faerie]]''
{{spoiler}}

====Act 1====
Illusen sensed [[The Darkest Faerie]]'s return before anyone else, but before she could warn anyone she was attacked in her glade by the [[Werelupe King]] and his [[Werelupe]]s. The Werelupe King steals '''Illusen's Charm''' and her glade is taken over by The Darkest Faerie.

====Act 3====
[[Tormund]] and Roberta find the charm in Werelupe Woods and bring it back to Illusen for help into Meridell.

==Illusen's Glade==
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/medieval/ef_big.gif
|}
Illusen's Glade is a [[quest]] a user can choose to complete once per day. Upon accepting the quest, the user has 16 minutes to find the [[item]] Illusen asks for through any means they can ([[Shop Wizard]], [[Trading Post]], asking a [[Neofriend]], etc.). Upon completion, the difficulty level of the next quest will increase. There are 50 levels of quests to complete, which Illusen rewards the user with a special item (every two or three quests) which gets more valuable the higher the levels go. Should a user start a quest and not return with the item in time, the user starts back at Level 1. When a user choose to do a Illusen's Glade quest, [[Jhudora]] will refuse to offer the user a quest, just as Illusen will do if the user does a [[Jhudoras Cloud]] quest.

{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/earth_leafsheild.gif
|}

It blocks fives icons of earth and three of physical, bother very common icons at low levels.  It also blocks five icons of water, which isn't very common in the battledome. It doesn't block fire, light, dark, or air, so it shouldn't be too heavily depended on, but it can still give the user an extra edge at the end of a battle. It is priced at about 8000 NP on the Shop Wizard, due to the fame it's gained in the Battledome.
<br clear="all">

'''''Level 32''''' - ''Illusens Earth Potion''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/faerie_earth_earthpotion.gif
|}

Averaging about 1500 NP on the Shop Wizard, Its solid attack and low price (due to its availability) means it is usually the first bomb weapon a user will equip. A downside of Illusens Earth Potion is, even at full, it is cut down to only one earth icon of damage by the [[Leaf Shield]], another item common with low level battlers for the exact same reason as Illusens Earth Potion. Only one may be equiped at a time.
<br clear="all">

'''''Level 35''''' - ''Honey Potion''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/earth_faerie_honeypotion.gif
|}
'''Honey Potion''' is a Magic Item used in the Battledome. Honey Potion is essentially an Illusens Earth Potion with twice as much earth icons, dealing  13 earth and 1-3 icons of damage. The Honey Potion suffers from the same problems as Illusens Earth Potion. The [[Leaf Shield]], commonly used even by low-level pets, will reduce the Honey Potion to only eight earth icons of damage. For this reason the Honey Potion is usually used only after freezing an opponent to guarantee a solid hit.

The Honey Potion is too expensive to be sold in shops and goes for about 800,000 NP on the [[Trading Post]]. It's expensive because it's one of the most commonly used "bombs" in the battledome, and come in small supply due to the high level needed to be rewarded it. It's definitely worth the price, however, and is still much cheaper than the [[Ghostkerbomb]] or [[Rainbow Clockwork Grundo]], which are a step after the Honey Potion.

Because freezing an opponent and using two Honey Potions the next term became such a common tactic in the battledome, users are only allowed to equip one Honey Potion.

'''''Level 38''''' - ''Illusens Scroll''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/earth_scroll.gif
|}
Illusens Scroll is a book written by Illusen herself, telling of her many adventures. Because books disappear after one use and the high level it takes to be rewarded this item, Illusens Scroll is expensive, going for 800,000 NP in the Trading Post.
<br clear="all">

'''''Level 41''''' - ''Illusens Blade''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/earth_blade.gif
|}
Illusens Blade is a [[Battledome Equipment|Battle Magic]] item, dealing 5 earth and 1-6 physical icons of damage in the Battledome. The amount of damage it does is random, but the results fall onto a nice bell curve, averaging 8.29 icons of damage. There are a number of problems with this weapons. It does earth icons, which are common and commonly blocked. The weapons is also too sporadic, while other weapons at a similar price can consistently deal 10-12 icons of damage. The [[Portable Kiln]], a weapon in the same price range, does a constant 11 icons of fire.

Because one must complete such a high level quest to receive Illusens Blade, it is very expensice, going for over one million Neopoints. This weapon is overpriced due to rarity, but if it can be found for about half it's price it might be worth a buy.

'''''Level 44''''' - ''Leaf Taco''

The Leaf Taco is a food item. It is a rare and hard to find food both because it is hard to complete such a high quest level for Illusen and because it is a gourmet food.
<br clear="all">

'''''Level 47''''' - ''Illusens Orb Plant''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/illusen_orb.gif
|}
Illusens Orb Plant is a [[gardening]] item. Because it is so hard to get to quest 47, the plant is very expensive, and rarely seen in the Trading Post.
<br clear="all">

'''''Level 50''''' - ''Illusens Staff''
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/earth_staff.gif
|}
Illusens Staff is a Battle Magic item and the ultimate weapon of the Illusen, allowing only her most worthy friends to use it. It is rewarded for completing her final quest at Level 50, but due to the expense of getting to that level, it's nearly impossible to receive. Very few of this item exist, having them cost well over 600 million Neopoints.

Illusens Staff attacks for  13 earth icons and 1-6 physical, for a maximum of 19 icons of damage. It heals 20% of the users max HP when it is in the red. Although this weapon does heal, it does not take up a healing slot. The defense of the weapon is complicated. It blocks all dark icons, but if attacked with light icons while dark occurs the light makes copy of itself into dark (now there is x light and x dark). The user then receives receives 100% of the light and 25% of the dark, and reflects the 75% of dark. (similar to [[Jhudoras Wand]]).

Illusens Staff is one of the ultimate weapons in [[Neopia]], however, it is rarely seen in the battledome because of its rarity, and one could buy a top-level battledome weapon set for the price of the staff.
