Potions

It seems every prompt at the moment is Halloween themed. Here's a couple in quick succession. From Lillie McFerrin Writes Five Sentence Fiction prompt for this week - potions. She's picked a marvellous picture to illustrate it, too. Simply gorgeous.
People always say that the Arcane Arts aren't something you should meddle in, but how hard can it be? It's just like cooking really - you follow the recipe and get the desired outcome. Water of Lethe, hemlock, down from a phoenix, dryad's moss and a dragon scale. The master has them all in labelled jars... I should know, seeing how it's me that had to sort them away. This stupid musty old tome doesn't specify what colour dragon scale, but that shouldn't matter, should it?

  1. I hear that the green scales are the worst. Nicely done - I'm a little afraid to find out what happened next!

  2. Sweet!

    The worst dragon scales are Barney Purple.

    Trust me; I know these things.

    Cheers!

  3. Ha ha, forget the colour of the scale, I know he had to sort them but who had to go and collect them? I really enjoyed this!
