Text Cut: Derry's Notes
Strength Potion
(Pyramids? Who knows... also anaemia etc.)

• 2 kilograms of dragon heart (a few grams more/less doesn’t matter)
• 1 pomegranate
• A cup of re’em blood
• One mature salamander’s blood
• 2 unicorn tail hairs
• Powdered griffin claw
• 2 snake fangs

1. Add 2 litres of water and the unicorn tail hairs one by one
2. Light a fire, highest heat. Add dragon heart.
3. Once mixture is boiled, add the pomegranate.
4. Turn the heater to medium and wait five minutes.Mix re’em and salamander blood in a bowl and stir them five times clockwise and five times counter clockwise and crush griffin claw whilst waiting.
5. Add the blood mixture slowly and THEN, the powdered griffin claw IMMEDIATELY.
Wait for ten minutes and add one snake fang
Put the fire out and add the other snake fang
Stir counter clockwise once.

Potion should thicken and turn a bright yellow colour.
Drink one cup at a time, whilst till hot - any more and it will make you dizzy.
Tastes like metal
After drinking it rest and let yourself adjust for a few minutes
Lasts 12-14 hours (jeez, really?)
Can omit the heart by adding a glass of water, counting to 18 and adding pomegranate.
Can also omit Re’em blood add another pomegranate instead, but this will reduce the effect to one tenth.


Okay... twelve to fourteen hours was a bit excessive, but there you go. Derry put out the fire, dropped in the final snake fang and stirred her potion once, anti clockwise.

...

Oh. Ew. Thick and yellow... like that gross banana flavoured throat medicine thing she’d had once. Eugh... she really didn’t want to drink it. It looked like everyone else’s, and she knew she’d brewed it right, but she didn’t want it. Eeeew.

Plus she wasn’t sure she wanted to be super strong for that long. Maybe if it’d only last for like an hour or so she’d be more excited about it but... eh. Anyway... she needed an O in this, right? Probably. So she should get this over with.

She carefully decanted a cup of potion and put it aside, then with a couple of charms, made an ice cube and dropped it into the potion. Okay... who wanted to drink this?

"Anyone want to swap potions?" Preferably someone who'd brewed theirs properly... because Derry's was done properly, and that was just a fair swap.
