She raised her eyebrow at Luci's 'Scha...Sta....', but didn't say anything. Ah. "I do, yeah," she said, reaching into her bag and pulling out the textbook. She didn't mind finding the Stargrass on her own because, for the most part, she preferred working alone. "No problem," she said and scanned the garden, looking for the herb she needed, which was pictured in the textbook. It was quite easy to spot with it's distinctive shape and fairly bright colour. Though, compared to some of the other herbs in the garden, it was quite dull.
As soon as she spotted it, she headed over to it and took out the tools she would need to harvest it.

Soon enough, it was done.
Stargrass in tow and tools packed away, Rhea headed back over to Miranda and Luci. "Did you get all fifteen pieces of Betony leaves?" Because there were three of them in this group, obviously. "I've got the Stargrass. We should head to the library. I heard that's where the Fireseeds are."

She came back quickly and started helping her harvest leaves, very carefully might I add. Making sure to take her knife and cutting it down close to the base of the plant..
" Don't forget to cut it long enough to hang in the drying room, Guys"., Randa said. If there was one thing she knew about this particular ingredient it was that it would take a few days of drying before it was ready to be shucked off the stem... Nice and dry.
"Right, fifteen." Luci was first thinking they would all this in one, but probably didn't make sense if each, in an exam or something would have to do it alone. Complete panic.
Luci followed Miranda's suggestions and grinned. "You're quite skilled at this. Thank you, girls." She said, as she carefully put the betony leaves in the bowl and continued cutting the last three...There, finished.
"Yes, let's get going!" Luci nodded, while cleaning up the area they had used to collect their ingredients.
