Game	Description
	A special stone that encourages evolution. Alchemise it!

Agate of evolution is used extensively in the Krak Pot for creating the strongest weapons and armour. One can be received as a reward for completing Quest #178: From Rust to Riches. It is both expensive and time-consuming to create one, as the materials must be made through Alchemy or found in high-ranking blue treasure chests and require access to Sterling's whistle received as a reward for completing of Quest #39: Follow That Fish! in the postgame. It can be sold for 30,000 gold coins, but it is not recommended to do so due to its rarity.
