Rowan noticed another witch enter, it was Cassandra. She had seen her around plenty and knew her name and all. But Rowan had to admit she had never gotten to know her too well. When Cassandra started brewing up a potion, Rowan didn't pay it much mind. 'Another witches business is their own' was a motto Rowan lived by.

“Hey, Rowan,”she said, giving the other witch a gentle tap on the shoulder, “does this look right for a clear mind potion? I’m not entirely sure.”

Rowan was always happy to help someone with a subject like alchemy. Even if the name 'clear mind potion' made her shudder a bit. None the less, Rowan knew of it and was able to have a look. [color=007236]"It does look a bit dark doesn't it. I swear it should be a lighter color. I mean it should probably still do the job, just maybe not to the extent you are hoping for. Hold on, bear with me."[/color] She got off her seat and walked over to the large book shelf. Rowan ran her finger over the spines of the books. She muttered the names of the books as she past them by [color=007236]"elements and alchemy, the magic of newt's tongue, Greenthumb's guide to flowers."[/color] Eventually her finger landed on what she was looking for. [color=007236]"Ah ha, here it is. Alchemy for the Human Mind by Elizabeth Moore."[/color] Most of the recipes in the book (including clear mind) were well known potions before even her grandmother was born, but it was more her work to improve on known methods.

The book was certainly one of her grandmother's darker projects. This made it not very enjoyable to read for Rowan, but she still forced herself to read cover to cover. The human mind is a very fragile thing and is extremely hard to recover once tampered with. Even with some of the most skilled healing witches from multiple covens called in to heal the subjects after testing, some still never fully recovered. It was for this exact reason Rowan had hesitated for a moment when deciding to help Cassandra with this project or even give the opposite advice to diminish the potion. But ultimately it was not her place to block witches from certain magical endevours.

Rowan placed the open book on the table, page open to the clear mind potion.[color=007236]"Yep, as I had expected you didn't do the timing quite right."[/color] She placed the potion back onto a stand and started fishing around for ingredients. [color=007236]"Don't worry though, because theres usually a fix.[/color] She pointed to the book where it stated corrections for the clear mind potion."[color=007236]"In this case, its crushed dandelion."[/color] She gave off a short giggle because of the absurdity of how common and mundane the ingredient was. [color=007236]"You usually want to get them fresh though. The insects really dig into them."[/color] Finding the crushed dandelion she sprinkled it into the bottle and began giving it a swirl. She gave off a satisfied smile as the color cleared up ever so slightly into the one pictured in the book.

[color=007236]"That should be good there. Might I ask who you intend to use this on? I can turn it into apple or something if you need to disguise it."[/color]
