Shedding Layers

We must preserve the skin from putrification. To do this you have to lay the skins down on a flat surface with the scales facing down. Then you will have to rub the curing salt onto the inside that was connected to the meat and fat. Allow the salt to absorb the moisture. While the salt does its work, you should not waste time. Scour the depression near Dread Lake for the Shadowblossom flower for its seeds, we will need them later.

Lay the skin on the Tanning Bench by selecting the Tanning Bench and then right clicking the Blackheart Hydra Skin in your quest inventory. Then right click the Curing Salts to apply them to the skin. While the curing salts absorb the moisture, you should look around Dread Lake for Shadowblossom flower seeds. Return to the Chracian Hunter with the seeds.
