Observations on Certain Herbs and Their Applied Use
By Doctor Ambrosius Mérimée
I have spent the last two weeks attempting to find and research any other plants than those with which I have already experimented, but there seem to be none left (I feel slightly ashamed to admit that I have also noticed some of the previously plentiful edible plants nearby are now lacking, too. Blaming the animals. It had nothing to do with my stew-making. None whatsoever.)
Here is my final list of plants and their properties – now, I suppose, I should return home!
Here, then, are the herbs which I encountered in these areas:
Yellowroot: immediately upon taking, I observed what I felt was increased dexterity and reduced fatigue. The effect lasted about two minutes. In my experience, the herb was usually found in marshy areas and forests with regular rainfall.
Hemlock: the reduction of fatigue was considerably quicker than that achieved by use of yellowroot. I observed healing properties when a poultice of this herb was placed over my scratches. Picked from the small bog behind my summer cottage.
Bloatroot: Felt healthier upon taking this root, but, my feeling of fatigue increased - not as if I needed sleep, but as if I had just woken up from having too much. Further research confirmed its relaxing qualities, so I would recommend administering this herb in stressful situations.
Hot Rot: increased my strength substantially and seemed to give the feeling I was healing. Did a number on my memory, though. Where have I heard this before...?
Blue Eye: temporarily increased my vitality, but little else.
Adder Brother: this herb, uncommon but to the grassland regions, can be used to fight organic poisons. I first observed this property after an unfortunate encounter with a particularly aggressive wasp.
Traveler’s Joy: temporarily increases one's resistance to some forms of physical damage.
Saffron: permanently increases physical strength.
Might of Nine: regenerates one’s bodily powers quickly, albeit temporarily. I was, in fact, quite surprised to encounter it in this region, for it is supposed to grow mostly in higher mountain areas.
Arborusia: incredinly rare, but belongs in every alchemist's chest! An essential panacea.
