Seluvis Questline Routes Guide

Route 1: Give Nepheli Loux The Potion

This route is to make Nepheli Loux drink "Seluvis's Potion" as requested. Dolores the Sleeping Arrow Puppet will be available for purchase and Spirit Ashes "Nepheli Loux Puppet" will be obtained as final reward.

Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone As Nepheli Route Reward

Location	Map

You can obtain Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone after completing Nepheli Loux Questline. However, this item is also obtainable from Gostoc. If you are giving the potion to Nepheli for the Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone only, it is recommended to not use the potion.

Route 2: Give The Potion To Sir Gideon Ofnir

The route of talking to Gideon Ofnir about the potion and handing it over to him. Since no one takes the potion, no one will die, but the number of puppets available will be reduced by one compared to other routes. This route is recommended only if you want to proceed with the Seluvis Questline without any casualties.

Route 3: Give The Potion To Dung Eater

A route to make Dung Eater take the potion, which makes the Spirit Ashes "Dung Eater Puppet" available for purchase, but makes the Dung Eater Questline inaccessible. Since Dung Eater is an NPC involved in the ending of the game, the Dung Eater route is not recommended, but if you really want the Dung Eater Puppet, you may choose this route.
