I'm working on the Scent of Incense quest in Flotsam (Chapter 1). I got the real recipe and talked with the scholar. I refused to be blindfolded, so he marked the location of his laboratory on my map.

Unfortunately, I can get close to the marker, but I can't seem to find a way to actually reach it. I've gone up and down the path with the two bandit groups (the way to the field full of Kayran mucus.

I also tried searching around the other path in the area, which leads to the graveyard area a little ways outside town. All to no avail.

How do I get to the laboratory and get my reward?

  • I let myself be blindfolded, but I remember that it was a cave that was a bit uphill. I don't think you have to go up the path with the bandits, the path to the laboratory branches out somewhere at the foot of the hill. Commented May 22, 2011 at 14:40

  • I'm playing the game already, but am still amazed at how gorgeous the screens look.

  • @Bora It does look nice, but I'm hoping there are some brighter areas later on. So far it's nothing but dark forest and blue light everywhere. I need some color!

  • I suppose this cave is sealed after the quest? I opted to be blindfolded and now want to go back there to take a look but the it's all rocky cliff side; no cave in that area.
