She said and demonstrated.
Violet scratched her head in confusion. That was one too many steps to follow, but she tried her best to follow the professor as she did it. Okay. So first part was to get two dock leaves. That was simple enough. She followed the rest of the students to where the dock leaves were and plucked two of them.
I'm thinking you need to clean the mortar and pestle before I crush them right? Violet thought so she cleaned her mortar and pestle before placing the dock leaves and crushed them. Then Violet followed another group of students to the refrigerated section to get an Ashwinder Egg. That was simple enough right? But wait. Did she need gloves first? Violet quickly pulled on some gloves and carefully retrieved the egg. Violet hesitated a bit before breaking the egg and decided to break it like a normal chicken egg. She cracked it carefully on the side of the mortar and dumped the contents with the crushed dock leaves. Where were her sprigs Fluxweed. Frantic, Violet searched everywhere until she found the 4 sprigs and added them to the mixture just in time. Violet wiped sweat off her forehead in relief. Potions was harder than she thought it was.
After five seconds of breathing in and out, Violet carefully picked up the mortar and poured all the contents into her cauldron. Once more, Violet scourgified her mortar and pestle. She was now done and jotted down the rest of the steps she had done. Violet sat back down to wait for the professor's next steps.
