Anachronox Hints
Where do I steal that leaf?
1 of 7: Look for the merchant who complains about the bird that eats his fruits.
2 of 7: Notice that the merchant has a bag hanging from his stand.
3 of 7: The gold leaf is in that bag.
4 of 7: But you have to distract him if you want to look in that bag.
5 of 7: The bird will provide your distraction.
6 of 7: Click on the bird several times, until he flies onto the fruit stand. The merchant will then go to chase the bird away. While he's looking at the bird, you can reach into the bag and steal the gold leaf.
7 of 7: However, you don't need to do this -- the village elder will supply the extra leaf if you skip this puzzle and decide to be honest.
