Quest Walkthrough
Frita asks you to get her some Ephedra. When you bring it back, she suggests that you should research it at the library, which is inside the school building. She also mentions there are additional notes that were hidden by Chukwu that need to be found. These notes are available in the northern archaeological dig site, located on either side of the two tents in the image. They will have a different appearance up close than the normal dig sites. When you find them and bring them to her, she will quiz you to see if you read the notes and the book in the library. If you are successful, she will reward you with a new recipe Vigor Potion and invite you to stop by for tea.
