Was Essence of Insanity a difficult brew? Well, yes and no. It all really depended. Nora continued stirring, thinking of a concise and not-so-complicated answer before speaking.
"It comes more difficult the more potent you want the potion to be," the blond replied as she stopped stirring and glanced at the few other ingredients she needed to add. "But, in general, I would say it isn't the easiest to brew. It takes a few days as it needs to simmer and there are some other ingredients that need to be added."
A hand then reached for some Billywig stings, which were carefully added to the cauldron one by one.
Her head briefly bobbed up and down when Hanna revealed what potion she was brewing. A Sleeping Draught, simple to make but quite effective. She had considered brewing its more potent counterpart, the Draught of Living Death, but decided against it because the Essence of Insanity was more difficult to provide an antidote for.
"I see," she responded, watching as the final sting disintegrated. "Need any help?" All she had remaining with her potion for the time being was to add a small amount of Lobalug venom and let it simmer in the corner all night.
