"Right. And feel free to keep that or ask me for more, if you need it to refresh your memory or for anything else." There's plenty more where that came from, both in the sense of what he's carrying around in his pockets and back in the caves.

"Anyway. Here, take this. This is blue herb." Leon passes her another sprig, this time a tall stalk of tiny bunches of flowers, almost like lavender - albeit a pale baby blue in color instead, not that that matters to Drelasa. The oil the petals give off is sticky to the touch and almost cloyingly sweet. "This one is mostly used for the way it absorbs and neutralizes poisons in the stomach if you eat it quick enough afterwards - either as-is, or dried and powdered to make it even more effective. Be careful with it, though. If you take any sort of medications orally it'll probably cancel those out too."

He turns his own sprig over in his fingers, a memory floating to the fore in the way that only certain smells can prompt, and sighs. "It also gets used as a flavoring in desserts and baked goods a lot. There's this one brand of ice cream back home that's my favorite. Huh. Didn't realize how much I missed that stuff until just now."
