Temple's Treasure is a quest in Fable III. This is a quest that requires the Hero to locate the flowers scattered throughout Aurora. It is also linked to the Flower Power achievement. There are a total of 30 flowers in six different colours. You must collect all five of one colour to unlock the corresponding dye.

Walkthrough[]

Flowers can be collected before or after starting the quest, but to start the quest officially, speak to Priestess Mara in the right chamber in the temple on top of the City of Aurora. Upon collecting all the flowers of any colour, the quest will prompt you to return to the temple, though you may continue collecting as you like and cash them all in during the same visit.

As you turn in each colour of flowers, Priestess Mara will give you an explanation of each colour dyes meaning to the Auroran culture. Each returned dye becomes available to dye one's tattoos as soon her dissertation is finished. When all 30 flowers have been returned, the quest reaches a conclusion and Priestess Mara ends the quest with a summary.

Flower Locations[]

The City of Aurora[]

  1. Blue Flower - From the docks, dive into the water and swim to a strip of land on the left.
     
  2. Green Flower - Climbing the hill towards the top of the town, you'll pass between two flags. The flower is near the base of the flag on the right. This area is also up the hill to the right of the Demon Door.
  3. Orange Flower - By the shrine in front of the Curious Cottage house. To the right of the shrine is a fallen pillar, the flower is behind it.
  4. Yellow Flower - Start at the steps of the temple where you retrieve your quest. Walk foward and you will see a fork in the road. Take the path on the right and walk a bit until you see an opening leading to Sandsky house. To the right of the house is a little room. Go in there.
  5. Purple Flower - Behind the Cold Star Manor. From the front entrance of the building, proceed to the right to get behind the manor.

Shifting Sands[]

  1. Yellow Flower - When you first enter the area, there will be a long set of stairs with pillars lining both sides. This flower is behind the farthest pillar on the right.
  2. Orange Flower - As soon as you enter the region from Aurora, veer left and follow the wall.
  3. Purple Flower - Follow the path to the right from the Aurora entrance. You'll come across an alcove with a diagonal pillar in the center of it; the flower is right beside it.
  4. Yellow Flower - Proceed past the diagonal pillar towards the huge stone arch that looms overhead. Right before passing under the arch, hang a sharp left up an incline. If you allowed the army fort to be built in Aurora that is beneath the stone arch.
  5. Purple Flower - Go under the arch and past the fort if you chose to build it and take an immediate right. This flower is in a sunken dip of land between two dunes.
  6. Orange Flower - After passing under the arch from the Aurora side, past the fort, look for a jagged slanted rock jutting out of a sand dune, with another small rock next to it. They should be directly in front of you from the arch. The flower is next to the smaller rock.
  7. Blue Flower - After going through the arch and fort (if you decided to build it) take an immediate left and hug the wall and follow it for a long while. The flower is on a hill in the northwestern corner.(You will see an almost entirely flat rock.)

The Veiled Path[]

  1. Blue Flower - On your immediate right when your first enter the area.
  2. Orange Flower - The area opens up, where you'll see an unpaired Sentinel statue on the right. The flower is located a little further on, just behind a tall rock formation on the same side.
  3. Purple Flower - After the last flower there is another Sentinel statue on the left. Follow the sand mound directly to its right to find the flower at the base of a non-functional door.
  4. Red Flower - From flower #3, turn your back to the door to see a fallen pillar, situated between two rows of Sentinel statues that face each other. Walk between the statues, past the fallen pillar that blocks most of the path, to find the flower just below the second statue on the left (before reaching the stairs).
  5. Orange Flower - After flower #4, bear left up the stairs, to find the next flower at the base of the wall.
  6. Purple Flower - Vault down from the ledge or go down the stairs; the next flower is again on your left-hand side by the wall (just after some rubble and the aforementioned steps).
  7. Yellow Flower - Continue forwards from #6, moving up several flights of stairs to find several Dark Minions. After the first flight, you'll see another set further ahead, with this flower to their right. It's located immediately below a ledge lined with three Sentinel statues, alternating with two stone pillars (there is also a gnome on the wall below the statues, to your left).
  8. Yellow Flower - Climb this next flight of steps to find another batch of Dark Minions and the door to The Enigma. Once the coast is clear, look to the left of the door to find the next flower at the base of a stone pillar. You should be facing several flights of stairs, flanked by rows of stone pillars with two more Sentinel statues towards the apex.
  9. Blue Flower - This is located by the left wall, two flights of stairs after the Sentinel statues mentioned in #8. A gnome is atop a nearby pillar on the right.
  10. Red Flower - Three flights up from #9 you can find this flower on your left, just after a large pile of rubble.
  11. Green Flower - The last flower is located atop the grand staircase, to the right of the enormous, grand, completely non-functional doors. Note there is a silver key hidden nearby.

Sandfall Palace[]

  1. Red Flower - Descend the first set of stairs and the flower is in a small pile of sand to your right.
  2. Green Flower - At the first branching path, where you can either take stairs ahead of you or to the left, take the left stairway down to a pond. The flower is behind a tree by the water.
  3. Green Flower - Double back to the branching path and take the alternate set of stairs. Keep going straight across the walkway and through an enclosed passage that leads to the second large room of the palace. Head left through the trees and keep an eye out for a giant semi-circle structure. The flower is in a grassy patch right by the structure.
  4. Blue Flower - To the right of the first set of stairs in the second large room, past more circular architecture, is a shrine housing the flower.
  5. Red Flower - After entering the third large room, hug the wall to the right to find a door. Immediately to the left after entering that door is the last flower in the palace.

The Enigma[]

  1. Green Flower - In the centre of the second room after the first treasure chest, can't miss it. Shoot the Flit Switch above the door directly in front of the treasure chest to open the second room.
  2. Red Flower - In this room, there are unlit torches that correspond to the various side chambers. Use the Fireball gauntlet to light the torch on the left to open the next door, and the last flower is right out in the open of the adjacent room.

Description[]

Collect the rare flowers.

Dialogue[]

Upon restoring any single colour[]

When you have collected all five flowers of any given colour, Priestess Mara will prompt you to turn them in to her. If you have collected all five of more than one colour you will be prompted to turn them in, in the same order that you found the fifth flower of each colour. She will then recite the following dialog for that particular colour.

  • The Purple dye represents our dreams. It is worn by those who wish to find wisdom in their sleeping state.
  • The Blue dye represents sorrow. As you may imagine this dye was the first to run out.
  • The Green dye represents growth, whether through birth or learning.
  • The Yellow dye represents prosperity. It is used in times of shortages and famine.
  • The Orange dye represents strength. In ancient times our fiercest warriors would wear it whenever they went into battle.
  • The Red dye represents love in our culture. Whether that be shared by betrothed couples or parents and their children.

At the End[]

After the sixth and final set of flowers have been returned she adds this summary.

  • The sacred dyes have been restored and our culture is close to being whole again.

Rewards[]

  • 10 Guild Seals after collecting all five flowers of each of the six colours. 60 total Guild Seals when you collect them all.
  • Restored dyes can be used on your tattoos, making them glow the colour of whichever dye you choose. Dyes can be toggled on and off by interacting with the bottle in the Auroran temple, but multiple dyes can not be mixed to create new colours.

Notes[]

  • Upon turning in the yellow dye, the priestess states, "It represents prosperity and is used in times of shortages and famine." However, the quest completion card says, "You have restored the sacred yellow dye, which represents courage in the Auroran culture."
  • Fully restoring one colour of flower does not count as a completed quest. Restoring all six sacred dyes by finding and returning all the rare flowers will only count as one completed quest.
