Obtain Meat

Once a wolf is captured, you will be able to harvest their Meat from the trap. You may put this harvested meat into the Wolf Traps again, or use it for cooking.

Capture Midas

Midas Skull Hatchery

You can use the Midas Skull to hatch Midas as an eventual follower of your cult. However, if he grows into an adult, he will steal Gold from you and eventually leave your cult. He will continue stealing from your cult until a follower complains about him.

If a follower complains about Midas, you can accept the follower quest to catch him. Simply set up a Wolf Trap with a Gold Bar as bait. Once caught, you can indoctrinate him and turn him into a follower again.
