There's no guarantee that it'll still be there. We can stay safe with liberal use of Jungle's Scent and keeping clear of any and all confrontations.

From anything that relies on scent, right?

This probably works with Flesh Moths too. There is a reason why this even exists to begin with.

Yep. But given the mystical nature of the substance and how it even removes the smell of Yaxkin's blood, I'd say there's a high chance that it'll help hide us from angry spirits as well.
Yeah, basically this.

Hmm, I had an idea that could give us resistance/immunity to flesh moths. It'd just be so expensive that we'd need to be rolling in money to pull it off.
Metal supplement pills.
We've seen that spirits are adversely effected by metal, so what if we were able to increase the iron content in our body. It'd possibly prevent flesh moths from digging into us.

Xochi points out that preventing them from tracking you isn't the same as preventing them from attacking you. If you had something to repel them, it would be much safer.

Clever, though the iron content would kill you before becoming noticeable.
That being said, the metal thing is less metaphysical repulsion and more that... I think that would be too spoilery, but let it be said that painting yourself with metal based paint would be a pointless waste of money.

Needless to say we'll be taking a LOT of alchemy lessons with Matlal when the time comes.

I'm really surprised nobody looked at the recipes you already know:

What makes you think it doesn't?... that works on Flesh Moths?

It just never occurred to me. I thought the old empire just hated normal mosquitoes so much that they made an alchemy formula to use against them.

It works on insects. Are flesh moths insects? Are fire sprites?

Flesh Moths: In a sense.
Fire Sprites: No. They are living flames.

And how do we know from the description when sth. works versus spirits and when not?

Generally speaking, spirits are not automatically immune against things. There are cases where they are immune against specific things, like a serpent spirit shrugging off any poison, but those are exceptions, not the rule.

... I really want to kill one of those. Imagine what we could do with a spiritsnake's hide.
Would prefer to get either the fangs to help deliver poison or the poison glands since that will provide a very useful poison that possibly could be used for medicine.

We could instead do a ritual to imbue our dagger with the venom, this would be nice if not an acidic one, we would only need to take care to not touch directly with our skin.
