>>43324656the macguffin juice is the sap of an very old ent, once revered by druids as a deity and many druids still to this day prefere to turn into trees (it's still a death, but it's a death that is as close to nature as possible yadda yadda, the ent has over the many, many years become a shamwow for corruption and the shrine where he rest is twisted. a group of blights, some vine monsters, and then the ent as encounters, fairly straight forward.
alt random encounter. the party finds a lens for a pair of glasses. when they look into the lens they see treasure and a landmark. adventure ensues
an old man is willing to part with something the party needs if they fulfill 3 wishes for him, they are 1, get him a bottle of special rare booze. 2, get him a few specific scented candles. 3, let him spend an evening with his wife-
the booze was very rare, when it was in production, now, 20 years later, it's close to impossible to find. (after a clue search they can buy it expensivly from a family of collectors or raid a dead familys vault(with combat)
the specific spice for the candles is not in season/illegal/other, they will need to track down someone with a greenhouse or smugglers, or something.
the wife has been dead for years, find a necromancer and bribe him, find a spirit medium or find someone who can allow the ghost to posses someone who looks like the old mans wife.
