The Ethereal Orchid

Level 31 · Adventuring · Coterie Infineum Sanctuary · Qalia

Return with pieces of flesh from any sirens in the valley, and a blue scale from the chromatic lizards to the north and south of the valley entrance

Objectives

Return with 10 pieces of flesh from any sirens in the valley, and 1 blue scale from the chromatic lizards to the north and south of the valley entrance. The flowers seem to have an odd effect on the wildlife in the valley, so be careful. - Ethereal Blue Scale (0/1) - Blue Siren Flesh (0/10)

Description

Alad says, "I believe that the Ethereal Orchid, which earned its by the heavenly glow of the petals, is what the sirens of the forest draw their magic from. This power is ancient. Its curses can deform you: crippling both your body and mind." "Everyone I have sent to harvest these flowers thus far has failed. If picked from the soil incorrectly, the flower will wither away, emitting a noxious poison. But with these tools, and some help from you, I think I may know how to properly cultivate them."

Notes

The source recorded the finishing NPC as “with”, which is a fragment of a sentence rather than a name -- its scraper cut the objective text mid-phrase. The field is left empty rather than filled with something that is not a name.
