The adage 'No animals were harmed in the making of this....' certainly doesnt apply today does it?

Limply he takes the container of leeches in his gloved hand. Leeches may be generally disgusting, but they have proven to be useful medical aid. And it is a creature, it has as much a right to exist as anybody on the planet.

Its takes him a full minute just hovering that container over the pot, so much so that the steam rising from it has prompted the leeches to start moving out and over his gloved hand. First the Jobberknolls, now the Leeches? "A worthy cause guys, I promise...." he murmured regrettably as he plucked the leeches from his gloves and lay them down into the mixture. He wasnt watching them gorge themselves into self destruction. He just waited and peeked into his cauldron until he can fathom the bubbly edge of the mixture has indeed changed into heartbreaking crimson.

He took his wand and with a swift stabbing motion he cast "Verax!" Now he nears his cauldron...

...... it looked like he's just been boiling water.
