Once you finish Dantro's quest, he'll send you to the Nebra South Bank village to talk to his wife. He'll also be asking you to take the flowering cactoid's flower, as she needs it to complete medicing for an injured adventurer in the desert. Here is where the quest of the 'Desert Patient' begins. For more information on the prior quest, follow this link:
How to Defeat Flowering Cactoid
1 | Dantro will be asking you to take the flower to his wife. His wife will be on the banks of the Nebra. |
---|---|
2 | Dantro's wife will be giving you items once she meets up. However, she'll also be asking you to pick up some items for her. |
3 | The items are, namely, the Semclam Shells, a phial of Nebralim, and some Valeblossom Dew from the valley near the village. |
Dantro's wife will greet and thank you for bringing her the flower from the previous quest. However, she will immediately ask you to complete another quest for her. She will be asking you to help her to look for items to help the injured traveler in their camp, which will kick off the quest for the Desert Patient.
The search for the Semclam Shells is fairly simple. Look at the banks of the Nebra River for 'mysterious glints.' These are the Semclam Shells, ingredients that Dantro's wife needs to cure the injured adventurer.
Go back to Dantro's camp when you're searching for this item. His wife will point you towards there, anyway; when you get there, Dantro will be giving you one phial of the Nebralim. It's sitting in plain sight, right on top of some crates.
4 | Return to Dantro's wife after completing each task to start the next one. Note that there is an area here that will remain closed until you complete another hunt. |

The Valeblossom Dew is a tricky item to gather; you have to complete the events at the Tomb of Raithwall first. However, once you're done with that, the way is cleared for you to collect these ingredients. You'll know these trees for their pink blossom-like leaves. Collect the required amount and return to Dantro's wife to complete the quest. If you want to know more about the Tomb of Raithwall quests, take a look here:

Dantro's wife will thank you once you hand over these items, but another item - the Great Serpentskin - will bump up your rewards from good to great. However, it is only an optional item, and your completing the quest isn't affected if you don't have it by the time you complete her requests. Here's a link to where you will find the Great Serpentskin:
