Flax field

The Flax Field is a place next to the beehives where the player can pick flax. There is also a building with a spinning wheel to the west where players can spin the flax into bowstrings. It is just south of Seers Village and west of Catherby. It is a popular area with players picking flax as an early temporary moneymaker as flax can sell for up to 100 coins each.

Back when there were flax picking macro people used to wear pale Gnome clothing and the macroers used to mistake them for flax, they then used to lead the pickes to the bats and the macroers would then be killed, you could be punished for this but is was unlikely because it was 'for the greater good'.
