Walkthrough
Edit

Starting off
Edit
- Start by talking to Wendy just North of the Wizard's Tower.
- Ask Wendy about purple cats. She will tell you to bring her a Cat and some magic unguent. She says you can get it from Lottie, Wendy's best friend, who is working with Betty in Port Sarim. Lottie is in Betty's Magic Emporium basement.
- Talk to Lottie. She will tell you the unguent is in the same chest from the Swept Away quest, but Betty has strengthened security (last time you did it, she became paranoid) and you must move all 6 animals at least once this time.
- Lottie will give you the magic slate again to view your progress during the miniquest.
The puzzle (Take two)
Edit
- This is essentially a smaller puzzle box, see the Treasure Trail Puzzle box guide, and can be solved using the same methods. By solving one of the vertical columns the rest is no different than the first puzzle.
Bat | Raven (aka blackbird) | Reptile (aka Lizard) |
