Speaking of witches, there’s one that needs a Cauldron in Graveyard Keeper and if the protagonist can find her one, she’ll teach them the fine art of using spices. Her name is Clotho, and she’s the guardian of many secrets. The Cauldron is only needed to complete the first quest she gives the player, and doesn’t appear in the game again.
1 The Politics Of Graveyard Keeping
There are two main religious factions in this strange universe. The Church, which keeps the graveyard and is connected to the ruling class, and the Witches, which are now few in number due to persecution. However, the power of witchcraft still has some uses, and certain townsfolk are willing to pay for their potions and cures.

After players bring Hiccup Grass to the Merchant, who is located in a yard south of the Dead Horse tavern, he’ll lose his sense of taste. Alarmed, he’ll impart a story about how he was cursed and needs a witch to help him cure his affliction. All he can tell the player is that old witch Clotho is somewhere out in the Swamp.

4 Krezvold The Blacksmith
Krezvold is the town blacksmith. He’s one of the first NPCs that the protagonist meets after delivering a message to him on their first visit to town. Once he reaches Tier II, a Cauldron will appear in his inventory for the price of ten silver.
