Alright, well, at least Professor Reed hadn't said he'd been completely wrong or anything.
It had been worth a try.
Now, onto the actual brewing of the antidote. After he'd carefully copied the list of ingredients as well as the procedure, Cameron put his notes and quill to the side so they would get in the way of his brewing but were still close enough for him to check and add comments if need be. After quickly getting up to wash his hands he then returned to his work station and pulled out his wand, meticulously cleaning every piece of equipment and ingredient he'd be using today. After that he set his wand down so he could put on his gloves.
Wand in hand again he leaned forward and pointed it into his beaker to measure out 50ml. "Aguamenti." He then lit the fire under his cauldron before poured the water into it, setting it to boil at medium heat as instructed. So far so good. Taking the other half of their stargrass, Cameron weighed it again (JUST IN CASE) but was satisfied with Junia taking exactly half of it. Okay. After finely chopping up the stargrass he added to the water, followed by the Boom Berry Juice. Now onto the boring part of brewing a potion:
Stirring. Three minutes was a long time.
Text Cut: Notes Antidote to Uncommon Poisons No. 005 Ingredients:- 50 ml Distilled Water
- 14 ml Liquefied Antimony
- 32 grams Stargrass
- 302 ml Boom Berry Juice
- 23 drops Essence of Dittany
- 5 pieces Fire Seeds
- 15 pieces Pure Rock Salt
- 5 strips Wiggentree Bark
- 5 pieces Fresh Betony Leaves
Procedure:
Clean all equipment to be used: Cauldron, Scales, Stirrers, Phials, Etc.;- Bring 50 ml Distilled Water to a boil in medium heat;
- Add finely chopped 32 grams of Stargrass. Use a silver dagger for this step;
- Add 302 ml Boom Berry Juice and stir counter-clockwise for three minutes pause 5 seconds, and continue to stir the solution counter-clockwise for another two minutes. Use a glass stirrer for this step;
- Remove the stirrer from the cauldron, and add 23 drops of Essence of Dittany into the solution;
- Let 3 minutes pass, and then adjust the heat to low. Slowly add 5 fire seeds into the solution after 2 minutes. Use your dragon-hide gloves for this procedure;
- Add 15 pieces of pure rock salt one by one, and stir the solution counter-clockwise for five minutes until the solution turns primrose yellow. This will indicate that the solution has been activated to counter the effect of poisoning;
- Lay 5 strips of Wiggentree bark on the surface of the solution, and slowly push it one by one to the inner wall of your cauldron. Turn the heat back to medium and wait for the potion to boil;
- Once bubbles appear, crush 5 fresh Betony Leaves with your hand, and add it to the boiling liquid. The potion should turn a shade of Sapphire Blue;
- Wait five minutes, and then turn off the heat. Let the potion cool for 15 minutes, and then bottle it in glass phials using a clean Pasteur Pipette (dropper). Label your potions;
- Scrape off the dreg at the bottom of the cauldron, and pack it in a tin box. Draw the Asclepius Staff with your wand, while saying the incantation: Venenum Inverto (nullify the poison).
