In Rush camping and at Homhil you can buy very nice pockets with pure frankincense collected from the trees of Socotra.

    As far back as in Alexander of Maсedon’s times Socotra supplied a great deal of not only frankincense and myrrh, but also Dragon’s blood, which was rubbed in by gladiators before combats for quick wound healing.
