"Before I head out, what do you all think we should name this place? Other than rodents hell".
Talk to people around town to see what their needs and wants are. See how much it would cost to make a store sign with the suggested name on it. See if I can find out more information on the current Lord >;]

Nara looked at the Owner before turning back to her work.

"Wasn't this already open in the first place?"

Oops, I meant gather herbs in general =P

Gather as many herbs as I can, as quickly as I can!

You should open shop soon - the local lord collects tax each month on the 28th.

"We have not yet opened the shop."

Attempt to breed the guinea pigs. Those that had a taste of the Aphrodisiac. But after a while, so no artificial discrepancies are added.

[4,1,3] - You successfully breed two of the guinea pigs! They create 3 baby guinea pigs, despite their gestation period of two months!

Spoiler: Guinea pigs? (click to show/hide)



The People tell you that healing potions are useful. Potions that cure diseases might be good, too. Also, potions that can be used to clean out vermin will be very useful.

It will cost 1 gold piece to make an ornate sign.

The current lord is a fair man, but otherwise has no achievements to speak of.



Kyrby finds many herbs!

[4+5+6 = 15] herbs, of [6] types, [1] of which is a already found herb.

15 Longland grass
15 Vorpal clovers
15 Kimerli moss
15 Alpha root
15 Tobacco leaves
15 Drunkard's bane




Today is the 5th of Troubard (month 1). It is cloudy. The lord collects taxes on the 28th.

Feed one pig a Vorpal clover, one a Drunkard's bane, and one a Tobacco leaf.
Look up the local rules for potion making/selling
"How about 'One Stop Potion Shop' as the store name? I would say "Hero's Blood", but they might catch on after coming back for the same thing ten times in a day."

"Keeper, I'll try to make the sign. How does wood sound?"

Create the Shop Sign. Names are open to suggestion through the Owner

Then make it Ornate, through the use of one gold, and try to embellish it with art.

Mix a Basilisk herb, White-spotted red mushroom and a Soelta flower together.

I wonder if there's a way to counter the petrification...

The pig fed the Vorpal clover is instantly decapitated.
The pig fed the Drunkard's bane says, "Anti-alcoholic. Tastes like red wine!"
The pig fed the Tobacco pipes, "Slightly addictive! Tastes like tobacco!"

You ask around for potion making regulations.

1. Do not sell potions falsely. Example: Selling a poison as a health potion
2. Do overcharge. That's the way to maketh a profit.
3. Compete fairly with other apothecaries.
4. Pay taxes, or else all potion makers are double taxed for your blunder.
5. Always buy guinea pigs directly from the guild. Do not attempt to breed them.
6. Taxes for start-up apothecaries are usually 40% of your wealth.




One shop sign ornately decorated with images is requested and completed!

You can create a name at any time.

You mix a Basilisk herb, a mushroom, and a Soelta flower together.
After a long period of brewing, you look at the congealed mass that is in the pot. You realize you forgot to add a base herb.

The potion is ruined. You lose one glass bottle, and now have infinite glass bottles left.

The pig fed the Vorpal clover is instantly decapitated.

1.Write a sign for the other co-owners stating: "All Vorpal clovers are now to be put in a completely sealed barrel with a brick on top. No access to it may be permitted without good reason that the group can agree on and without the customer calling for it by name. Documentation of its order must be made and the ordered identity must be verified by a noble and a guard must be around when the order is delivered."
2.And then seal them in a barrel with a brick on top.
3.Test the bittersweet potion on the moderately addicted pig
4.feed same pig fools herb.
5. Mix a Basilisk herb, a Longland grass, a Weeping herb, and a snowberries  together

Nara whistles nonchalantly as she tags the three baby guinea pigs as 'pets' and not for store usage.

Peter throws the potion into the bin, hoping no-one else saw his blunder.

He then goes out for herb-hunting!
