Amethyst It's some time later, maybe the next day, or a few days later. And it's day time this time around - midnight doesn't need to be a habit. Amethyst's shop is not terribly busy, probably at least in part because of the location. Still, she's inside somewhere, doing things.
Hoarfrost Hoarfrost makes her way back to the alchemy shop. While the sudden appearance of another spooked her off she finds she is still rather enamored with the idea of getting the glue she needs. This time she makes her way up to the door in the day light hours giving a soft knock. If there is an open sign she can see she enters, if not she waits to see if Amethyst is at home.
Amethyst There's an open sign clearly posted, in many different languages. Riverspeak and Old Realm are obvious, the rest are from tongues a distance away from the Scavenger Lands. But she thought it might be of use to include that she knows many languages.
Hoarfrost "Hello?" The familiar voice of the pale woman calls out as she opens the door and steps into the shop proper. Curious eyes scanning over the bits and bobs within. "We talked before I was hoping to get some glue? You mentioned perhaps making a trade?" closing the door softly behind her and taking a few more steps into the room.
Amethyst "Ah! Frost, was it?" Amethyst raises from a book she was buried in to greet the pale woman. The girl looks up at her. "Hmm, yeah, I do remember that a trade was an order. But I'm not even really in need of medicine as much as I need connections." She weaves her hands together. "I, don't really know anyone in this city. Back in Champoor I could've just pulled on my mother's ties, but here?" She shakes her head.
Hoarfrost "Connections?" head tilting just a little, eyes widening a little as she realizes Amethyst means her. "Me? I-ah well I suppose though I don't live in the city." Stepping through the store and making her way over to where Amethyst is. Glancing at all the things in the shop as she goes by. "I live near a small fishing village named Tideshore a bit of a boat trip up the Yellow River." Gesturing in a vaguely western direction. "My friend Neza only brought me to town to assist her patron with some fauna research."
Amethyst "Huh. Maybe it's Neza that I should speak to then. Still, finding somewhere I can get alchemical supplies, or where I can sell my completed mixtures in bulk, would be of equal use. Doesn't even necessarily /need/ to be here." Amethyst goes over to a cabinet, opens it and starts lookings inside. "What do you think? Help me get one of those, and I'll help you with your glue and maybe other things."
Hoarfrost "Perhaps she seems quiet but she seems to know allot of people." A warm smile touching her lips and bringing just a little blush to her cheeks. "I'm a fair hand at collecting herbs for my remedies." A little bit of a reluctant look on her face. Calculating just how much she can give up without hurting her ability to perform the medicine that is needed. "I have a limited ability to humanely collect some rare animal based ingredients. I think we can make an arrangement though."
Amethyst The girl considers, and nods. "I think we can." Amethyst says, "And maybe, hmm." Amethyst's ears go to the side as she contemplates. "I'm searching for a peculiar sort of plant, as well. One that grows either at the edge of the wyld, or at the edge of shadowlands, and is useful in knocking folks out cold. I'm going through my library here, but perhaps you could help me in my efforts. I'd especially love to see if I can make some way to either counteract it or grant someone temporary immunity."
Hoarfrost Hoarfrost gives a nod "I think I know of the plant you speak though I'm not entirely sure I've seen it in person. Do you have a picture or description?" looking almost eager to get started on a new adventure. Already plotting out all the different places she is going to start to look first. "Is it primarily used as a poison then I take it? Not some kind of anesthetic."
Amethyst Amethyst's eyes light up as she realizes that Frost can really help here. One more step to combating the Order. "It's actually largely an anesthetic. It leaves its victims sleeping but otherwise ok, and they wake with no ill effects hours later. And this stuff is fairly potent as well. Alas, I only knew the symptoms and how to identify its effects, not what it looks like. And it was in my mother's book that I read about it."
Hoarfrost Face wrinkling a bit in thought she digs deeper form her memory on what she knows about the flower. "Interesting, I assumed if you where trying to build an immunity response it was a poison of some kind." Voice full of allot more confidence and drive when she has a task in front of her it seems. "I know a few middle marches I can check, but without at least a rough description it would be a shot in the dark." Chewing on a nail she sighs. "Perhaps I can check my own notes perhaps I have found something similar and its not coming back to me."
Amethyst "Let's meet sometime later then. I'll keep compiling whatever notes I can get from these books, and you'll get your own notes together, and we'll find some way of dealing with this stuff." Amethyst says surely. It's then the girl gets what she was looking for. It's a jar filled with some sort of off-white liquid. "Glue." And she holds it to Frost.
Hoarfrost "Very well we can reconvene when we have had a better chance to review what we know. Having the glue is going to do wonders for organizing my notes." Taking the glue with a rare bit of joy for something so seemingly mundane. "Thank you Amethyst." She gives a polite bow holding the jar to her chest as she does. "I will what I can to help."
Amethyst Amethyst returns the bow. "Thank you. I appreciate it." She breaths deep, "I just hope I'll find him someday. There's some more information to go over too. But that too can come later. Just, stay vigilant on the streets at night."
