Lilies of the Field

**Lilies of the Field** is a side quest in *We Happy Few*, it takes place in Maidenholm.

## Objectives

* Talk to Mrs. Sackville
* Find a Lily Bulb
* Give Mrs. Sackville the Lily Bulb
* Find the Secret Garden

## In-Game Description

Poor thing. She seems quite upset. I hope no one finds out she's a Downer. Maybe I should see what's bothering her.

Poor Mrs. Sackville. She does miss her Lilies. And I think her friend, too. Violet, was it?

Wasn't there a Violet wossname at the Shelly Street garage? Odd woman. She was a lady mechanic! Rode a motorcycle!

Hang on. There's lilies in the Garden District. Percy was always going on about them. I could dig up some bulbs for her.

Bulbs! Or rhizomes. They're rhizomes, aren't they. What's the difference, anyway?

These look almost edible. Percy said you could eat them, and he was never wrong about plants.

It would be rather awful of me, though, wouldn't it. Poor Mrs. Sackville's last chance to remember her, ah, friend.

She's got a secret garden! I could go have myself a decent salad for once.

This place is fantastic! I never could get anything to grow. That was Percy's department.

## Walkthrough

The player is going to need a Lily Bulb to complete the quest, lilies can only be found in muddy ponds in Lud's Holm.

After giving Mrs. Sackville the Lily Bulb, she will give the player a key to her secret garden, which is not shown on the map, meaning the player has to follow the objective marker.

The quest completes when the gates to the garden are opened.

## Trivia

* The name is a reference to 1962 novel *The Lilies of the Field* by William Edmund Barrett.
* Mrs. Sackville's garden has signs with the vegetable depicted on them, as well as their scientific name above them.
	+ In the Early Access 27755 version of the quest, there is a sign next to the Potato sign that seems to depict a Yam, with the name "Ipomoea Batatas", which is the scientific name for Sweet Potato. However, the player would only get potatoes from digging up that spot.
