Echo: Secrets of the Lost Cavern Hints

Where can I find a bullroarer for Lharik?

  • 1 of 14: Tika has a good idea of where it could be.
  • 2 of 14: Find Tika sitting at the fire outside Klem's cavern.
  • 3 of 14: Tika won't tell you about it until you've helped her gather the ingredients she needs.  Note: Helping Tika does not seem to be a requirement to finishing the game, however, it does add some extra conversation choices.
  • 4 of 14: She needs peppermint and juniper berries.
  • 5 of 14: Once you give Tika her ingredients, talk to her again.  She will tell you where she thinks the bullroarer is.
  • 6 of 14: Tika says the bullroarer is stuck in the tree that Lharik often sits in.
  • 7 of 14: The tree in question is back where you first arrived in the grotto area with Tika.
  • 8 of 14: Notice the tree with the pile of stones beneath it?  The bullroarer is in that tree.
  • 9 of 14: Arok cannot reach the bullroarer from the ground.  He'll need to climb up the tree a bit if he's to retrieve it.
  • 10 of 14: Arok cannot climb up without some sort of help...
  • 11 of 14: ... perhaps that pile of stones under the tree might give him the boost he needs...
  • 12 of 14: ... if he could just move them over a bit closer to the tree.
  • 13 of 14: Once the stones have been piled directly under the tree, it will be possible to climb up the stones and reach into the tree branches.
  • 14 of 14: From in the tree, you should be able to find the bullroarer hanging from a branch.
