Plant the Seed With Your Saurian Buddy

The little Tepetlisaur will immediately look for a good spot to plant the seed. Wait for him to finish digging before interacting with the hole.

Infuse the Seed With Phlogiston

Next, you must infuse the seed with Phlogiston from your own reserve. If you're out of juice, look for an Everflame Seed, Flaming Seeds of Phlogiston, or other sources of Phlogiston before coming back for the seed.

Defeat the Attracted Monsters

A swarm of Phlogiston Aphids will suddenly appear and try to absorb the Phlogiston from the seed. Defeat them to regain Phlogiston that you can also use to re-infuse the seed with if necessary.

Another group of monsters consisting of Pyro Slimes and an Eroding Avatar of Earth will appear behind you. Protect the seed from this final wave to complete the quest!
