TheWoWDBLike all profession quests in DF until they were patched, not worth your time until they make the drop rate 100%. As of now, it's abysmal, as per usual.

Blizzard: Makes quest with horrible droprate
Everybody: We hate this and refuse to do it
Blizzard: Fixes horrible droprate. Three seconds later implement the exact same quest in a different area with the same horrible droprateI hate the specialization system
(also, it looks like only the Swooping Flayers drop this)
Quest is pretty annoying, took me 25-30 kills to get all 10. Mobs have a lot of hp too.

Description
Why, I just got another letter from my good friend Mistie. She's been looking for interesting ingredient ideas for her smelly concoctions! A while ago, the kithguards took down a deepflayer near Loamm. I noticed a peculiar dust it shed when it perished. It had a unique aroma to it, and I'm sure Mistie would love to experiment with something like that! Could you gather some from the deepflayers near Loamm, then bring it to Miss Mistie? You'll be doing us a favor, too!
