Quest Offering:

Djau says, "You will need a nice, large bunch of mustardgrass, a few stalks of tigerbalm, ground sweetsalt, crimped wizard's folly, and…" He glances you over ans days, "Why don't you take the list to Geeshou and see if she has any of it on hand. She can tell you if there's anything else she needs."

Geeshou is the apothecary that I mentioned. She may be willing to brew these potions for you, if you can convince her it's for a good cause."

Npc Dialogue
Geeshou

You say, "Geeshou, I hear you're a talented apothecary."
"I am," she says, eyeing you. "What do you want?"
"Djau Hasqo sent me to you," you say, "because I am trying to help a blind woman."
"What's wrong with her?" asks Geeshou.
"Well," you say, "she's blind."
"And?" asks Geeshou.
"That's the problem: she is blind," you say.
"Well, I can't brew anything that can change that," she says.
"But Djau says you can brew potions that enhance the senses," you say. "Giving the individual such command of their other senses that it almosts make up for the blindness."
She waves her hand and says, "I have heard of them, but I am not sure what goes in."
"It just so happens that Djau sent me with a list of herbs," you say. "If you're as skilled as I've heard, maybe you can figure out why they work." You show it to her.
"Let me see that," she snatches it and holds it close to her face, examining it closely.
"I am beginning to see now!" she says. "Yes, the tigerbalm soothes… the sweetsalt stimulates…" She looks up at you with a delighted expression. "This just might work."
You nod and ask, "And you'd be willing to do it?"
She says, "Why, I want to do it just to see it work! It will be a test run though - you understand?"
You nod and say, "So long as you're willing to try."
She nods and once again examines the list. "I have all of this on hand… except the wizard's folly. I know an herbalist in Raia who might be able to help though. Her name is Moshni. Get some wizard's folly for me, and we will be set. I'll get to work on the rest while I wait."

Moshni Wedjejeh

You say, "You are an herbalist, Moshni Wedjejeh?"
I am," says Moshni Wedjejeh, nodding.
"Do you know much about wizard's folly?" you ask. "Especially that which has been crimped?"
Moshni Wedjejeh examines you and says, "Why would you be wanted to know about that?"
You say, "I was sent here by Geeshou. I am trying to gather the ingredients for a series of potions that will enhance the senses."
"Oh?" she asks. "You aren't planning on doing anything unethical, ar you?"
"No," you say, "why would you presume that?"
"Well," she says, "such potions are popular among footpads and all manner of disreputable types."
You shurg and say, "Well, that is no why I want it. I am trying to help a blind woman."
"She has had a hard time adjusting to a life without sight," you say.
Moshni Wedjejeh nods and says, "I suppose this is your blind grandmother, eh? Do you really expect me to buy that tale?"
You grown and say, "No she's not my grandmother, just a women I am trying to help. She is a seamstress, so you can image how much this has devastated her. She was one the court tailer of Ahgram."
"Oh, so you expect me to believe you're just doing this out of the goodness of your heart," she says, shaking her finger at you. "This is a dangerous herb and the implications of its effects are even more dangerous!"
You grown and say, "Fine then, don't give it to me! But understand that you are crushing the only hopes of a woman who has lost everything!"
She looks taken aback at your passionate tone. "I…" she says. "Very well. You can have it. If you story is true, well, then, I am glad to know there're people out there willing to go through so much for another."
"If you're not, well, then, just don't ever make me see your face again."

Geeshou

"Ahh… excellent. Fresh wizard's folly!"

["You can brew the potions for me then?"]

"Here you are. Hope these help your friend."
