Hey! I've been thinking about Meatlug's special ability to make new alloys in her stomach. Gronckle Iron is a little hard to make, but last time you also made something else very interesting, glass. I know you made it by accident, but I think we can find some great uses for it!
Um, maybe not a sword or shield, but something simpler, like containers that you can see into. Heather challenged us to create some colored glass to create different containers for the lab. I think we're up for the challenge, buddy! Can you go back to the Wilderness and find three sandstones?
1- Find sandstones in the wilderness (3)
Hiccup
Perfect!
We'll need a few more tools to make different colored containers. Will you talk to Gobber and ask him for a pickaxe?
2- Ask Gobber in Berk about his pickaxe
Gobber
Sure lad/lassie, I've got a spare pickaxe named Bernice that you can use! Here you go.

I've seen a lot of nodes of ores and minerals in the Wilderness that could help us out. The ores are created with different minerals and elements that we might be able to use to make colored glass. Elements are substances that are the building block of all matter.
Go to the Wilderness to find some minerals to mine. Try looking in the caves!
3- Find chromite ore in the Wilderness
Hiccup
That looks like one! Great!
Click on the pickaxe button and grab any ores that you can mine!
4- Click on the node and pick chromite
Hiccup
Great!
You're getting the hang of it! You should be able to find manganese and cobalt nodes in the Wilderness. Will you find them, click on the pickaxe button, and collect the ores that come out?
5- Find the cobalt node and click on the pickaxe
6- Find the manganese node and click on the pickaxe
Hiccup
Amazing job, buddy!
You should talk to Heather to create a hypothesis.
7- Talk to Heather and form a hypothesis
Heather
Intersting choice! Let's go into the lab.
Lab 1 - Feed Meatlug Chromite and Sandstone, use the Feather tool on Meatlug, then cool the bowl with ice.
Lab 2 - Feed Meatlug Cobalt and Sandstone, use the Feather tool on Meatlug, then cool the bowl with ice.
Lab 3 - Feed Meatlug Manganese and Sandstone, use the Feather tool on Meatlug, then cool the bowl with ice.

You were able to make colored containers! I can definitely use this to store different elements in Alchemy Adventure. That's so exciting! Why don't you enter the lab and play the game? It looks great now, thanks to you!
8- Play Alchemy Adventure in the lab
Heather
Your hypothesis was proven to be true/false. Will you go back to Hiccup with the rest of the colored glass? Thanks for your help, [your Viking's name]. I'm so excited with the result!
9- Return to Hiccup with the colored glass
Hiccup
Wow, that worked out great! I wonder what else we can do with glass? I'll try to come up with some other cool things that you, me and Meatlug could make together. Thanks, [your Viking's name]!
