To complete Leda's "Captains' Drink Recipes" perform quest in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, players will need to collect pepper leaves. While these can occasionally be found in crates, the most reliable method is to visit specific nodes on the world map and utilize the "Search" command. This guide details the locations of these essential resources.
Pepper Leaf Locations
Pepper leaves are not as rare as wonder leaves and can be gathered from multiple nodes across the world map. The specific node chosen may depend on proximity or other objectives a player might have.
The Myugria Great Tree in Saveilon is an accessible node for obtaining pepper leaves. This location is situated in the southern part of the map. Players can reach it by traveling to the Salacia Posthouse and then proceeding south.
Another convenient location is the Traveler's Garden node, found by heading northeast to the Castalia region. Using a carriage to the Eochaid Posthouse brings players close to this node. From there, players should move east of the Port of Pandora and then north upon reaching Zethus Falls.
For players willing to travel further, two additional nodes offer pepper leaves. The Forest of No Return in Pasithea is one such location. It is located in the northwest area of Pasithea and is a significant distance from the closest carriage point, the Chiron Posthouse. Players should ensure they have enough turns to make the journey back and be aware of potential enemy encounters in surrounding areas.

The final identified node for pepper leaves is Cape Nereus in Solidus. Situated in the southwest corner of the region, bordering the Nysiades desert, this node can be reached from either the Aragona Posthouse or Cartodo Posthouse via carriage. Prioritizing Aragona Posthouse may save turns.
