Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle Hints
Trench Three
1 of 18: The summary says charred bone fragments from the Melanogrammus Aeglefinus and the Gadidae species were found in this trench.
2 of 18: You're going to have to figure out what those two scientific terms refer to.
3 of 18: Go to the fish section, since they're the only things listed on the site that could have bones.
4 of 18: That's all you need to know in order to deduce that this trench's stone requires a fish offering, but if you're curious, you can find out that the two scientific terms refer to haddock and cods, respectively.
5 of 18: You might think the service station's cafe would have something suitably fishy, but it doesn't.
6 of 18: You're not looking for an actual fish.
7 of 18: Try to find an item that might contain something to do with fish or other marine life.
8 of 18: Like some marine-enhanced hair tonic.
9 of 18: There's a bottle of this lying around the service station's forecourt area.
10 of 18: One of the people from the abandoned car had it on him when the sentry stone fried him.
11 of 18: Check around the two large piles of ash that are near the car.
12 of 18: The one you want is on the passenger side.
13 of 18: Approach the car from the rear.
14 of 18: Get to where you can zoom in on the pile of ash on the ground just to the right of the car.
15 of 18: Click on the bottle next to the ash heap to see that it's the hair tonic I was talking about. It says "marine enhanced" right there on the bottom of the bottle (in small print).
16 of 18: Once you've got a bottle close-up, click on the egg cups to get one out.
17 of 18: Then click near the top of the bottle to get some hair tonic poured into the egg cup, making a fish offering.
18 of 18: Click on it to take it after the weird "balance must be restored" vision.
