Deed Lore

Find the many interesting varieties of flowers within the Wildwood.

To complete this deed perform the following objective(s)

  • Find eyebright
This lovely little plant is said to be able to do everything from spreading cheer to curing ailments of the eyes. Some whisper that a tonic of eyebright dripped into the eye before bed will grant the sleeper prophetic dreams.
  • Find ragged robin
Legends say that someone wearing this scraggly pink flower on their lapel will soon find love. They are more likely to be swarmed by butterflies, who have a deep fondness for ragged robin.
  • Find teasel
Sought after by clothiers, the spines of the teasel can be used to raise a fuzzy nap on fabrics, especially wool. Water that collects in small cups which form around the stem is said to reverse signs of aging when applied to one's skin.
  • Find speedwell
Small and delicate, speedwell makes a fine tea, but does not make one move more quickly, as rumours often suggest. It may benefit one who suffers from leprosy or gout, however.
  • Find shepherd's purse
A versatile plant that has both medicinal and culinary uses, Shepherd's Purse is often mistaken for a weed. Though its healing properties span numerous ailments, Shepherd's Purse is also thought to be beneficial in addressing a great number of blood-related issues.
  • Find wood spurge
Leathery, dark green leaves and bright yellow flowers make wood spurge a lovely ground cover. When cut, however, the plant bleeds a milky white liquid that may cause pain and irritation of the skin.
  • Find yellow-rattle
Towards the end of summer, the seed pods of the yellow-rattle turn to paper thin, dry husks. The sound made when the wind blows and rattles the seed within is how this lively plant got its name.
  • Find knotted thistle
Often looked upon with grimaces or trod underfoot, behind the needle-like bristles, the stem of the knotted thistle can be boiled down and used in pie like rhubarb. The flowers, however, have a history of being used to curdle milk by jealous neighbours.
