The Hand of Fate Hints
How can I pay for my trip on the ferry?
1 of 11: You will have to pay for it with gold.
2 of 11: Don't forget that you are an alchemist.
3 of 11: So you know how to turn lead into gold.
4 of 11: But you'll need the proper equipment first, now that yours has been stolen.
5 of 11: Something that could make gold is probably very treasured.
6 of 11: And guarded like a treasure.
7 of 11: You first need to get past the rat in the cave. What you need is stored in a chest in the next room. See other questions in this section if you don't know how to get past the rat or how to open the chest.
8 of 11: Now all you need is something that's made of lead.
9 of 11: Lead is heavy enough that it would probably make a good anchor.
10 of 11: The fishermen are using a lead anchor. But they'll need it until they catch a fish. See another question in this section if you haven't helped them catch one yet.
11 of 11: The boat will then move to the dock. Use the alchemist's magnet on the anchor, and then take it to the ferry.
