Notes

At'lordrith's cave is found at 17, -17, 4 in the Northlands. From 18, -18, 3 (Global: 18, 144, 3) go nwd; in.

Say "riddle" or "yes" to him and he will ask you riddles. The riddles are the same set, but in different order, so an alias would not work here. When you've answered all of his riddles, say boon and he'll give you some dragon scales. Answering the riddles gives about 260 experience each and you can answer as many as you want. Getting one wrong isn't a problem; he just waits for you to give the right answer. If he makes a motion of disgust or disappointment, the riddle has timed out. he does not have an unlimited supply of riddles - a character starting from level 1 can get to about level 10 or 11 max by relying on his experience.

"crush scales", and you'll have dragon scale dust. You'll need to mix it with water, so you'll need a canteen (other water sources might work). Then "mix dust with water" and you'll have a white potion.

Head on over to -30, 22, 1 in Cimbra (Global: -30, 103, 1) and you should see a massive oak tree. "pour potion on tree" and the quest is complete. This gives about 6000 xp. (go 9nw, 37n from LH)

if you ever have a riddle you don't understand, most players know the answers by heart.
