Keepsake Hints

How do I obtain a nigilis fruit?

  • 1 of 7: The only way you will get one in this game is to grow a nigilis tree.
  • 2 of 7: Of course that means you will need a nigilis seed.  To obtain one, you will need to win at the Minotaur game.
  • 3 of 7: Next, you will need to find a good place to plant the seed.
  • 4 of 7: Once you've found the circle of soil in the garden, you will need to click on the soil to plant the seed.
  • 5 of 7: Your next task will be to bring magical light to the nigilis seed.  There is an apparatus nearby that can do that for you.
  • 6 of 7: And finally, you will also need to bring water to the nigilis seed.
  • 7 of 7: Once Lydia is has planted the seed, brought it some magical light, and provided it with water, she will automatically perform her first magic spell.  When the tree is done growing, it will be obvious to Lydia that the fruit may be accessible from an upper balcony.
