Spirit of the forest quest

[StefanPravda]

Hey guys

I need a bit of help please. So I have the spirit of the forest quest. I have a silver ring. When night comes, I start a fire and a torch so I can see, then go over the top of the ant nest, General sacrifice the ring, it says that I feel at ease, then press - to wait. Nothing happens, three nights in a row. What am I doing wrong? No messages that I sense the spirit, no nothing.

Cheers

Are you alone? So that there are no companions, or other people nearby.

Very alone, closest village/people are 10+ tiles away. Not sure if even 20. Tried it about 7 times, all kinds of variations, sitting on the top of the ants, sitting near it, dropping the silver on the ants after the General ritual. Nothing works.

I built a shelter near and also 2 fires. Is that a problem?

[Sami]

Shelter and fires shouldn't be a problem.

Hmm. Have you had it working before?

Also, how long do you wait? You could try until small hours, or even early sunrise.

[StefanPravda]

I had it working a long time ago, before I took a break. I will try it again. Wait for night, General sacrifice the silver, Wait until noon on the ants nest.

It seems I lied. I have a village close to me: https://prnt.sc/r59mh3 . Maybe that's the issue. My mistake, sorry, I will try further away.

My next idea was to suggest trying at another ant nest anyway.

But yes, village that close may be a problem. Forest spirits tend to exist deep in the wilderness.

Good! And it sounds like the forest spirit really likes you.
