Walkthrough
- After reading a note in the lair, you discover that pouring water into a basin with your watering can will cover your hands in Flow, allowing you to chop down infected vines. You will use this repeatedly while you escape from the cave.
- Optional: There is a chest behind some vines on a platform in the main room.
- Climb up the rope ladder on the right side of the cave by the campfire. This will bring you to a door that you can go through.
- Use the nearby basin to chop down the vines.
- You enter a storeroom with a locked trapped door. Use your hoe on the dig spots in the room to find the key.
- Go through the trap door.
- Walk forward to trigger some dialogue.
- Make your way through the ruins to get to the trapped boy. The correct path to follow is:
- Chop the vines to the left and slide down the ramp.
- At the bottom of the slide, turn right. Just before a dead end with a grate, climb onto the ledge to the left.
- Chop the vines to the left and slide down the ramp.
- Turn right and follow the tunnel until you reach another basin. Past the basin is a drop off and two paths blocked by vines.
- Chop the vines on the right and slide down the ramp.
- Continue forward until you reach the next basin. Chop the vines and enter the maze. The correct path is as follows (using the directions on your compass). You may need to backtrack occasionally to refill a basin.
- Go to the south towards the red light.
- Turn west and chop down the vines.
- Go to the north and chop down the vines in front of a basin.
- Use this water basin to chop the vine to the west.
- Continue forward, chopping vines until you reach the main room with the lost boy.
- Optional: Behind the trapped boy, there is a treasure chest.
- Once again, fill up the water basin and free the trapped boy.
- Finally, talk to the boy.
- Speak to Subira outside of the cave to finish the quest.
