Alright, I managed to do it. It's definitely not easy to do but grinding adventurers helped a lot with wracking up the money. Also, Aha/Dark Ritual/Haste makes for a very good combo once you get violet weapons. Defend also seems to work as far as filling the violet requirement it seems but it also doesn't seem to be super consistent when it wants to work. On one more related note, cooking seems to confuse the passage of time. Or at least how Rest works.
