Selik root

Selik is a plant found on top of the Eagle Heights on Cormorant Island. Up there nest the eagles in their eyries, with some of these nests being almost as old as your mother. In Spirit Walker, Torak and the Seal trio, believing Tenris’s malicious claim that the selik root could cure the yellow scab disease, climbed the pegs leading up to the nests, only to tumble down and have Detlan suffer serious injury. For some reason, I remember the selik plant being purple, but I don’t remember it saying the plant was ourple in the book either.
