Echinops

The book that has echinops in it is the first of a two volume set. I did not find it for a long time and I think it was in the Antiquarian stall, though my memory is not as good as it used to be. :laugh:

Did anyone finish the Gardener's contract for the three rootstocks for echinops? Where were the echinops found - in the garden or somewhere else?

You'll have to go to the swamp forest to find them.

Thanks for the response. I found them, or rather they found me - attacked by two but whipped them with a blast of incinerating fire. I thoiught it was somewhat silly for the Gardener to ask for the echinopsae when they were not in his garden! :rolleyes:

I'm sorry that I made this incorrect suggestion about the two volume set. Please excuse my poor memory, but I did warn about that. The book on echinops (and other things) is sold by the Antiquary in the Temple Quarter near Shani's house and is called "Curses and the Dammed". IIRC it costs 500 orens.

You can also learn about echinops from the old women outside in the Visma Outskirts. Just ofter them some food and ask for old tales and the last tale they will tell (there are 5 or 6, though some are just pure wives tales) is echinops, and will give you their journal entries. This is handy to know if you plan on entering the caves by Visma as its full of them.
