    2. Objective 2: Retrieve the residue of the Kazetama flower in the Detsukoto Ruins

      Hidden objective

      Journal: I must venture into the ancient ruins deep within the Nakibani forest to retrieve a Kazetama flower. It's said that these elusive blossoms only grow in the shadowy depths of ruins and caves.

      Success: I've located the residue of the Kazetama.

    3. Objective 3: Find the tooth of a karuntak
    4. Objective 4: Find the underground entrance to Detsukoto

  2. Phase 2: Find a way to heal Rhia Sako

    Journal entry

    Umarate Sako has gratefully accepted my offer to help heal his daughter. I am determined to find a cure, but the path remains unclear. Someone must have some sort of information on what this illeness is.

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Talk to the temple Shaman.

      Go to the temple north of Garkai and talk to the Shaman.

      Journal: Perhaps the oldest and wisest of the temple will have some idea as to what this might be.

    2. Objective 2: Ask the Shaman how you can help cure Rhia

      Hidden objective

    3. Objective 3: Find someone else who knows how to heal Rhia.

      Success: An old Sand Elf at the edge of the swamp in a makeshift hermitage who calls herself the Lone Healer seems to know what is afflicting Rhia Sako. She calls it 'Grey Fever'.

    4. Objective 4: Go to the Sheru Tombs

      Hidden objective

      Journal: According to the Shaman, whatever Rhia has contracted is contagious and widely forgotten to the people of Garkai. She seems to think there may be information about it in an old book somewhere in the Sheru Tombs.

    5. Objective 5: Locate the book Hands of Healing

      Hidden objective

    6. Objective 6: Read the text of Hands of Healing

      Hidden objective

  3. Phase 3: Bring salve to Umarate

    Journal entry

    This is it! This should return Rhia to full health. I can't wait to see the look on Umarate's face.

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Tell Umarate the medication is prepared
  4. Phase 4: Heal Rhia

    Journal entry

    Moment of truth ... I hope this works.

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Heal Rhia

      Go to Umarate's pod and heal Rhia.

      Success: I've healed Rhia Sako.

  5. Phase 5: Speak to Umarate

    Journal entry

    It worked! Rhia should be back to living like a young Karu women in no time at all. Time to tell Umarate the good news!

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Speak to Umarate Sako
  6. Phase 6: Make the salve

    Journal entry

    I've gathered the ingredients for a salve that could treat Rhia Sako's grey fever. Now, I need to deliver them quickly to someone who can make use of them. The Shaman mentioned a healer named Dento at the temple who could craft it for me.

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Bring the salve to Dento at the Temple
    2. Objective 2: Make the salve yourself

      Journal: Or, of course, I could always take a stab at making the salve myself.

  7. Phase 7: Bring the ingredients to Lone Healer

    Journal entry

    I have the ingredients the Lone Healer sent me for. I should get these back to her quickly.

    Objectives

    1. Objective 1: Return to Lone Healer
    2. Objective 2: Make the salve yourself

      Journal: Or, of course, I could always take a stab at making the salve myself.
