Once I awoke I finally had a stroke of luck in finding some help. Another Undead warlock Alekzan, slightly less traveled then myself, was looking for more people who he'd been told had also been tasked with collecting mudsnout blossoms for one of the local apothecary's elixirs. As one of those individuals also given the task, I jumped at the chance to join him and Bellende, a troll of the Roguish persuasion, around the same level of skill as myself from what I could judge.
