Companions of Xanth Hints
Where do I mix these ingredients?
1 of 8: You need a container that will also let you crush the flour.
2 of 8: Think of something that a pharmacist might use.
3 of 8: There is a stone mortar and stone pestle in the barrow back in the Region of Earth. Use the mortar as a container.
4 of 8: Add the flour and fire water (see the previous hints if you don't know where to get them), and then grind the ingredients with the pestle.
5 of 8: Now you're ready to bake the mix.
6 of 8: There's a natural oven down here in the Realm of Fire.
7 of 8: Put the mix on the opening near the fireman, and cook until it turns a light golden brown. When you take your mix, you should get a firecracker.
8 of 8: All that you have to do now is throw the firecracker on the wall of fire, and if you wait a bit, the wall will explode.
