Description

Now, mix a tiny amount of rot into the water, and mix thoroughly. There, that's it. This solution will still be very powerful, and we only need a little bit of it.

On the lake's southeastern border, you will find a plague cauldron with several cultists nearby. Put on your cultist disguise, then approach the cauldron and put in ONE DROP of the solution you made. No more, or you may risk your very life!

To summarize -

You have three options for this quest. They each produce a different visual result, but ultimately the quest is completed by choosing any of the three.

1 - Put in 1 drop (as recommended). This completes the quest with no excitement or pizazz.

2 - Put in 1 flask. This causes a minor "explosion" which causes you to fall down (like when you are charged by something).

3 - Put in 12 flasks. This causes a major explosion which knocks you back pretty far but does not cause you to take damage.
