What grows where

Gathering, the hearth and the kitchen

What grows where in the realm, and what you can make out of it.

Walk into a region and you can gather what grows there. Nothing else in the realm grows it. Herbs, berries and mushrooms are the exception: they scatter the whole realm with the seasons, and fish come off a line at the water.

9 materials, one per region

Every row is one material: the region it grows in, what it looks like on the ground, and what you can make out of it.

Oils and potions

Every town has a hearth. Walk up to it and press [E]. An oil coats the weapon in your hands and wears off. A potion goes into your pack, and you drink it when you choose. An oil needs a weapon equipped before it will take.

Brewing at home

The Kitchen is a room in your own home, 30,000 gold. It brews all 8 of the Potions that raise a stat forever, where a town hearth makes 3. One brew at a time to start with, and the wait is real time, so you can log off and come back for it. Each one goes into your pack, and you drink it when you choose.
