Dialogue
Hm, I don't know whose familiar you are, but won't you lend me a hand?
A plant creation has recently dropped its fruit, and I'd be grateful if you could gather a few samples for me. You should find some along the northern edge of this isle. Large as they are, you won't mistake them.
Be warned, however, that the fruit are covered in an acidic secretion. Before you handle any, you'll want to apply this steelskin balm on your hands.
Remember, the fruits are covered in an acidic secretion. Before you handle any, you'll want to apply the steelskin balm on your hand.
You liberally apply the steelskin balm to your hands.
Creations lie prone near the fruit, alive but insensate...
Ah, you're back. Were you able to get the fruit?
Oho, such marvelous specimens! My thanks!
You appear none the worse for the wear either, so you must have used the balm like I suggested. Very good, very good.
You may be wondering why the fruit is covered in acid. One day, each fruit will become a carnivorous plant that preys on herbivores, keeping their population in check.
But until it matures, it needs protection from those selfsame herbivores. To that end, we tried giving the mother plant the impulse to spray its fruit with its digestive secretion.
The fruit you brought, we will examine to determine its resistance to the acid, and make adjustments as necessary. My thanks for your help!
...Hm? You're looking a bit unwell. You must've gotten the secretion on you, you poor thing. We'd best treat you at once.
There, you'll be fine now. You did well to endure the pain, but you should've used the balm. Remember to do so next time, all right?
