| | Lesson 1: A look into the past As you enter the classroom, you first note how at the right and left you can find empty long tables. It seems that they have been used frequently, and you are left wondering how they have been able to withstand so much use.
The herbology tables are made out of wood and are spread out enough to give everyone enough room to take notes and practice with the plants.
However, currently, this classroom is locked. Professor Virohsa will surely open the classroom tomorrow, once the class starts. Once the classroom is opened, you are free to walk inside, find your spot, and await your first herbology lesson.
OOC- Students: Please wait for Professor Virohsa to open the door. Thanks |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Katie Minnson | Angel was writing as best as she could. The answers seemed to be over flowing from all of her fellow students. Notes were more important than trying to answer so she scribbled away trying to keep up. It seemed her fellow Hufflepuffs were doing better at answering anyways so she didn't feel as bad.

| Professor Virohsa frowned. "I said it was published during the Ming dynasty..." She looked around to see if any of the students knew the name of the book. |

Nabiya was terribly unsure about this, but decided that she would never know for sure unless she tried, so she raised her hand and answered, "Was it Caomuzi?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Tonksamelia (Tonks) for short. Third | Tonksamelia looked up from her scribbling of many notes and quietly asked the professor..." Is it The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine?" Hoping she might be right, she waited patiently and then went back to note writing.

Professor Virohsa nodded. "Very good! The name of the book is Compendium of Materia Medica. 3 pts to Ravenclaw", she replied.
"Now, can anyone tell me how these herbs were classified?", she asked the class. |

Bella said: "Professor...
The Compendium of Materia Medica has 52 volumes in total:
1. At the very beginning is the table of contents, containing a list of entries included and 1,160 hand drawn diagrams to serve as illustration.
2. Volume 1 to 4 — an 'index' (序例) and a comprehensive list of herbs that would treat the most common sickness (百病主治药).
3. Volume 5 to 52 — the main content of the text, containing 1,892 distinct herbs, of which 374 was added by Li himself. There are some 11,096 side prescriptions to treat common illness (8,160 of which is compiled or collected by Li).
The text is written in almost 2 million Chinese characters, classified into 16 divisions and 60 orders. For every herb there are entries on names, detailed description of appearance and odor, nature, medical function, effects and side recipes etc."

Rachel raised her hand, she wasn't sure if she was right, but she thought she would give it a try anyway, "perhaps they were classified by their use in certain potions, professor, or the certain conditions they live under." she winced a little, she hated being wrong.
