On this page of The Forgotten City guide, you will find a description of the steps you must take to obtain the Silphium Resin for Iulia. Talk to Lucretia and go to the merchant. We described what you need to do to push the plot forward, get more tasks and make progress. However, you can stop here and ask around for as much information as you can. It is worth noting that you can get the medicine in several ways.
You can get a few achievements in this part of the game:
- Looper
- Kleptomaniac
Lucretia
After receiving information from the soldier, it's time to go to Lucretia. She is kind of like a doctor who helps people with serious illnesses.
On the spot, you will learn that Iulia was poisoned. There's only one way to save her. You need the Silphium Resin. There are several ways to obtain this potion. The woman needs it to recover - it will unlock further story quests.
To learn that information and accept the next task, select the following dialog options:
- "What happened?"
- "I'll get right on it".
Desius
After you accept the next task from the woman, a marker leading you to the merchant will appear. You need to talk to him. Only he has the cure to save Iulia.
Start the conversation with "I need some silphium resin". What you choose next is up to you. It is important to leave this conversation by selecting "I'll be going now".
There are several options for obtaining Silphium Resin. We have described them in detail on a separate page of our guide. Here we will choose the easiest of them.
Walk away from the merchant, turn around, examine the bottle and take it. This will cause an earthquake - run to the temple to break the loop.
If you don't know the way to the temple, the quest marker will show you. In this case, you immediately get the information to escape and reset the loop. Remember that after you reset, you will still have the Silphium Resin in your inventory.
