The Root of the Problem

Nigel, Head Botanist / The Backyard, The Hideaway

At the hideaway, medicine is in constant short supply, but botanist Nigel is of a mind to change that. If he can get his hands on several samples of morganbeard—a rare flower renowned for its curative properties—he plans to cultivate his own in the backyard... Or at least try to.

To show his thanks for the morganbeards, Nigel distills the flowers of several samples into a concentrated essence that, according to the botanist, will fortify Clive's potions and elixirs with but a single drop.
