Anachronox Hints

Where can I find 4 gold leaves?

  • 1 of 6: Two of them are nearly yours for the asking, once you have the quest to get the leaves.
  • 2 of 6: Go back to the entrance to this city.  One of the creatures here, who's near but not right next to the pool of water, will give you a gold leaf if you ask.  (You need to have this quest first, or he'll just talk about the leaves without offering you anything.)
  • 3 of 6: You'll also find a merchant close to the Chieftainess who will trade you 4 silver leaves for a gold one.
  • 4 of 6: If you have those two leaves, you shouldn't need to do anything more -- just go to the Chieftainess, and she'll supply the remaining two.  But if you'd rather find them all yourself, there are ways to get them.
  • 5 of 6: You can get a third leaf by cheating a merchant.
  • 6 of 6: And you can get a fourth leaf by stealing it outright.
