Rare Potion Ingredients: A Giant Raven’s Egg

Six days ago in Agrenna City

Livol, a former Ranger: I’ll go get you a giant raven egg, Gustavus, but just know in advance that the Raven King drives a very hard bargain, so you’ll have to reimburse me for the riches he’ll demand.

Gustavus: Yes, yes! Just get me that egg. Money is no object.

Two days later, in the Great Forest

Raven King: So, old friend, have you brought me shinies and colorfuls?

Livol: Oh yes, my friend. 20 bright and shiny copper plates, 32 pieces of colored glass, many lengths of rope in many colors, and 10 mirrors. All of that cost me 15 gold pieces.

Raven King: Oh, how wonderful! Here is the egg. Now, do stay the night and catch us up on all the news of you humanoids.

Today




Gustavus: Four large diamonds? 6 gold bars? 3 silver helmets from the Elven Guard? For a total of 9,800 gold? That raven King does drive a hard bargain! Still, a deal is a deal, so here you go.
