If you are like me and can't find the Volatile Sap since it doesn't glow like the other three; it's the white smoking jar located between Hearthbloom and Saltpeper.
Actually doing this triggers him to say the following: "You... you just JUMPED into the pot! What would possess you to do such a thing!? We must start over!"

Description
I've been studying the parchment Lady Lucille sent with you and have translated some of the older language. They called it "Liquid Fire" and it was used to "burn away the Drust". Using this as a basis I believe we can adapt it to our needs. This is a complex recipe, but it just so happens I have everything we need to make this potent alchemical weapon! I will need your assistance in creating this. Would you be so kind as to help?
