A particularly insane Sultan of Narak once had a great greenhouse built, and used it to house a number of strange plants brought from around the world. There were rumors of workers disappearing and never being heard from again. Now, it is said, a fearless balloonist will take adventurers there, for a price.

In Narak head to the Sultan on the east side:
To get inside of the gate - RING GONG
go in
To get out of the gate area TURN CRANK
ask sultan greenhouse
You ask the Sultan of Narak about his greenhouse.
The Sultan of Narak tells you: "How did you come to hear of this? Yes, I had it commissioned and specially built to house my unique collection of plants from about the realm. I didn't think those laborers would be so inclined to gossip of my secret plans."
ask sult plant
You ask the Sultan of Narak about the plants in the greenhouse.
The Sultan of Narak tells you:
"Oh, they're unusual. If you go there, and I won't tell you not to, you better be well-armed. Some of my laborers disappeared while working there. Huh, that's not a bad idea...perhaps I'll send the ones who gossiped about my secret plans back there for, uh, repairs!"
The Sultan of Narak throws back his head and cackles with insane glee!
The Sultan of Narak tells you: "In fact, I'll even give you a little hint about finding it. Go to the bank and look around for a way to climb up onto the roof. There's a...oh you'll just figure out the rest, I'm sure."
The Sultan of Narak tells you: "You come back and see me... if you survive... and I'll offer you a job. Just come back with proof you've been there and hand it to me. In fact, if you give me something I consider worthy, I'll give you the job!"
Go to the bank and climb plant to the balloonist.
look sign
The sign reads:
HABIB'S HOT AIR BALLOON SERVICE
Round trip balloon rides to (crossed out), (crossed out), and the
fabulous greenhouse of the Sultan of Narak. Only 1 gold piece per person
(and we don't make change). Just type 'buy passage' and you'll be off on
a grand adventure through the skies!
The remainder of the sign consists of fine print which you cannot seem to make out.
buy passage
You hand Habib a gold coin and he ushers you into the balloon and takes off. You fly across miles of sand to the east and land in a circle of large red rocks.
Look brick at the locked door.
The brick appears to be very loose, and is raised about a half inch above the other bricks as if something were hidden under it. The brick also bears a strange set of initials: "ROYGBIV" (guessing something to do with a rainbow, but not sure).
Search brick
You lift up the brick and discover a small glass key beneath it. Amazingly the glass has not been shattered by the weight of the brick.
A Child of Anor - Sahya (all east from entrance)
ask sah plant
A child of Anor listens carefully to all you would ask of her and prepares herself to answer.
The Sultan of Narak himself asked for me, although I do believe this place is supposed to be his little secret. No one knows how to tend to these exotic plants properly, and some could not possibly give them the loving care they each require.
The Sultan created this place to house his private collection of plants, but he kept its construction secret. He intended to sequester the specimens of combative vegetation separately, but some of the workers were attacked and those who escaped are not likely to have kept the Sultan's plans such a secret anymore.
These exotic plants are from all over the realm. Each one is quite unique. Most of them are dangerous. Some, even the Sultan himself has no idea where they came from or for what evil intent they were created.
This town of Narak is a perfect place to house such exotic plants, but I really think the Sultan needs to consider posting some guards here. Even warning signs would be helpful here, but I haven't found many. Do be careful should you decide to explore here. The town itself is quite a bit safer and most inhabitants are friendly, the balloonist is another matter entirely.
