Hogwarts RPG Name: Sini Sarah Snider Second Year | Sini wrote looked at all of her notes on the potion before beginning the process. Quote:
Ingredients:
Water (200mL)- potion base
Salt (6 g)- emits light
Billywig stings, dried, powdered (2)- excitation
Essence of firefly (3 drops)- aids in the production of light
Instructions:
*Set water to boil and add salt, stirring clockwise until dissolved
*Powder billywig stings and add to boiling salt water, stir counter-clockwise 12 times, then clockwise twice and repeat six times
*Carefully add essence of firefly, one drop at a time, stirring 6 times counter-clockwise then clockwise twice in between each addition
*Reduce flame and simmer for 20 min before allowing potion to cool
*Carefully ladle potion into appropriately sized vessels
She set her water to boil and waited for it to boil before adding in her 6g of salt. After a few minutes the water started to bubble, upon seeing that she added the salt, stirring clockwise. Waiting to make sure that the salt as dissolved; she gathered her powdered Billywig stings.
She wanted to make sure she completed this part properly; she was determined to make her first potion a success. She added the powdered billywig stings to her already boiling water. She stirred the mixture counter-clockwise 12 times, then clockwise two times. She repeated that repetition six times till the billywig stings were added completely.
Now it was time for the addition of essence of firefly, she added one drop at a time. Making sure to stir 6 times counter-clockwise then clockwise twice. She had to add in two more drops, both one at a time. Adding another drop she stirred the potion as instructed, 6 times both counter-clockwise then clockwise twice. Adding the last drop she completed the last stirring motions for the essence of firefly.
Then, reading her directions again, she lowered the flame allowing the potion to simmer. Leaving it for 20 minutes, she allowed the potion to brew. After the 20 minutes had passed she let the potion cool, before placing the potion into two viles.
Once it was cooled she ladled the potion into two viles, labeling them both with Then she brought one up to the teachers desk, and returned to her seat waiting for further instructions before being able to test her potion.
