Alyssa quickly sat up as Professor Lafay started speaking again as she revealed more ingredients on their table and explained to the class what each of them was. Alyssa quickly picked up her quill and noted down the ingredients in her potions journal.



She then watched as the Potions Professor demonstrated what they needed to do next. As she watched, Alyssa quickly noted those steps into her potions journal, making sure that she noted them down correctly.



Once demonstration time was done, Alyssa picked up the sprig of mint and tore it in half before adding it to the mixture in her cauldron. Then she dug into her robes pocket and put on her gloves, before picking up the stewed mandrake plant. She laid the mandrake on her worktable before picking up the dropper filled with the drops of honeywater and carefully dripped the 7 drops of honeywater on it making sure that she entirely covered the mandrake with the honeywater. Once she was done, she picked it up and added it into the mixture in her cauldron. She looked at the remaining ingredient left on her table, the glass of boom berry juice. She reviewed the steps that she had written and the Professor had not mentioned anything about using it, so she figured that the glass of boom berry juice would be required later and left the glass where it lay on her table.

Alyssa then reviewed her journal to make sure that she had completed the steps as demonstrated earlier by the Professor.



She then sat back and waited for either Professor to speak.
