Dialogue
Kakooroo
 * "Do thoo haffa thovel?"

You "Oh, no. You dropped your teeth again?"


 * "No. I was just chanting the spell. And it worked! Though the gargoyles really do have atrocious handwriting. Ah, this must be it. Here is a formula for an immunity charm which protects creatures against the power of a Blade of Madness."

You "Yes, that's it! That's what I need!"


 * "The recipe calls for some Deepwater Angler fish scales, a few Pyrrite Ore, some Specter Oil, and, well, this is strange. I don't recognize this last ingredient: Five Strands of 'The Breath of Life.' Huh... Maybe Yaphet will know."

Yaphet


 * "I've about had it with those obnoxious little critters! Nothin' cute about eating my plants!"

You "Hey, Yahpet. So listen, I need to make a special charm that will protect against the Blades of Madness curse."


 * "Aye. That is some sinister magic, I can probably help you out. Do you know the recipe?"

You "I do! I need some fish, pyritte, specter oil, and something called 'The Breath of Life.' Do you know what that is?"


 * "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? DO YOU WANT TO GET YOURSELF KILLED!"

You "Um, no?"


 * "The Breath of Life is an extremely rare Planimant, beautiful, but dangerous. It grows only in the soil of the dead, and I've known more than a few gardeners who lost a hand when trying to pluck a ethereal petal off its pretty vine."

You "So it's a flower with teeth? That grows in graveyards?"


 * "Yes. And not just teeth. Fangs, I tell you, fangs! Only real gardeners know the secret of how to pull The Breath of Life from the earth."

You "And are you, Yaphet, a real gardener?"


 * "I am! The secret to The Breath of Life is that only the dead can pick the petal. So if you're partial to keeping your hands, I recommend you go find yourself a ghost to do your plucking for you."

You "I don't know any ghosts."


 * "You might try the graveyard in Sapphira's Lament, find a grave and call out the name of the person buried there. Maybe you'll get lucky."

You "I'll go try my luck."


 * "If you manage to find it, bring everything back to me, I'll get you fixed up with that charm."

Yaphet - Turning in quest
