I know, isn't a new topic, but I can't find the sick mermaid. Please if possible send me a picture from the place where she is at. Thanks. +::SOS [spoiler]

No picture but I'll try to be descriptive as possible.
Leave the mermaid kingdom and go back to the main path. Continue on that path until you reach the northern exit to the next map. Go to that next map. A few steps in front of you there is a fork in the path. Take the right fork to a cul-de-sac. The sick mermaid is in that cul-de-sac. She's not walking around. She's lying down.

You need 25 Indinera Algae. You get plenty as drops, but you can also buy them back at the Mermaid Palace. You need 1 Oyster Pearl which there are several in the ?? locations. Luci also has to have at least 30 uses of paralysis spell. If you don't have all 3 of these, continue fighting/searching until you do. The NPC will wait. Just don't exit that screen to the north, else you won't be able to return.

When you select the skill you'll see at the top something like
* 23 --> 60 *
meaning you've used it 23 times and you need to use it 60 times to master. Once you've used it 60 times, it will change to something like
*** (64)
meaning it's mastered and you've used it a total of 64 times

Ok. I went into a fight and Paralysis is (188), so something is wrong. +::Dunno

I guess Indi will need to weigh in on this one then. I thought sure those were the requirements. +:::|

I second that! I've seen you giving instructions on this quest all over the forum, numerous times, i bet you know it by heart! Sounds like some finicky sort of glitch.

All of you I manage to cure her; the only thing wrong was that every time she mentioned that she needed Oyster and more things I would only get about 8 ingredients
but not all what she needed, I went out of the game and came back again and was able to go down on items to use what should cure her. She is back with the Queen.

Glad to hear it. Now go talk to the other mermaid, Myrthra, on the left hand side of the same screen as the Mermaid Palace. And while you're taking her back to the castle, stop at the shrine in front of the castle and get a boost. (If you've already returned her, stop at the shrine anyway and she'll still give you a boost.) Then talk to her again inside the castle. This all pertains to Myrthra, nothing to do with Amulea (the sick servant).

Hold on. Make sure you talk to the Mermaid you just healed BEFORE doing this.
You lock yourself out of SR22 if you don't talk to her.

I didn't know that. I guess it was just dumb luck that I did them in the right order. This is what my notes say (and I wrote them down as I went along, so I know they're in order).
Amulea (Quest 5, requirements 25 Indinera Algae, 1 Oyster Pearl, Luci's Paralysis spell 30+ uses)
Boss Fight Karachiz x3, then automatically transferred to Mermaid Castle, talk to Icneba and get a full rest
Talk to Amulea, keep clicking until she tells you about the blue lobster
Return to Myrthra to get Side Quest #6, return to Mermaid Palace, stop at the courtyard before entering palace and click on pool area to get a boost +3 MDF all party members (only happens if Myrthra has left for the palace), enter palace, Myrthra leaves party to speak with queen, find Myrthra in palace and speak to her some more and Random will get +20% paralyzed on normal hits
Back to the main path, look for the blue lobster to the right just before the northern exit, find Secret Room 22
Indinera Algae, Oyster Pearl, Fish, Golden Pearl, Giant Pearl (several of each)

I'll make a note to talk to Amulea BEFORE leaving the palace to seek Myrthra. Thanks.

I spent 5 hours in the discord whining and crying at Malrist/Myst why he was mocking me for not finding SR 22 until I figured out that you cannot enter the room if you didn't speak in between them.
I share the news when I can.
lol.
