Echo: Secrets of the Lost Cavern Hints
Where can I find the third color of pigment?
1 of 11: You won't find any ready-made red pigment. You will need to "make" some.
2 of 11: There is information about pigments in the documentary database.
3 of 11: The database mentioned that sometimes pigment won't be ready-made, but will need additional work. We've already made yellow pigment by crushing the ochre block.
4 of 11: What would happen if you tried the idea in the database, and heated some pigment?
5 of 11: There are many blocks of ochre pigment available. You'll just need to find a way to heat it.
6 of 11: There are several fires in the area -- but the one you can use is the one outside the cave entrance.
7 of 11: When the block of ochre pigment gets hot enough (at the edge of the fire) it will darken to red...
8 of 11: ...but it will also become too hot to handle with your bare hands.
9 of 11: What did you do before when you needed to handle hot objects?
10 of 11: Use the wooden spatula to retrieve the red block of pigment.
