The fabled sun orchid elixir is much sought after for its ability to temporarily halt the aging process, restoring the drinker to the age of its race's young adults. The secret of its creation was discovered by the Thuvian Alchemist Artokus Kirran in 1140 AR.
It is difficult and dangerous to make. The key ingredient is the nectar of the rare sun orchid flower. The flower can be found only in Thuvia's desert interior, regions infested by the corrupted Geniekin. Orchid hunters must also contend with the local tribal leaders, known as Unknown; many of these lords are little better than bandits.
