Mana Healing Potion

Mana Healing Potion Stats:

Difficulty Level: Extremely Advanced
Use: A mild

healing Potion

that specifically relieves some of the strain mana puts on the body of the user. It will lessen the effect on the body during the healing stage of mana, but will not speed up healing time.
Side Effects: One notable side effect is the euphoric feeling one may get when taking the potion with full mana health. And for those who have take large quantities over years, it can make the body build a high tolerance towards the potion, meaning it will be a harder strain on the body when recovering from magic use.
Appearance: Shimmery White, that looks similar to liquid pearl but has the consistency of water.

Mana Healing Potion Ingredients:

Apparatus Needed:

-  2 Cups of Snow water
-  3 Skullcap Leaves
-  6 Feverfew Petals
-  1 Pandanus Leaf
-  Salt
-  1 Pearl
-  Knife, or scalpel.
-  Stirring Rod
-  Cauldron
-  Mortar and Pestle
-  Bottle(s)

 

Recipe for Common Healing Potion:

-  First you need to slice the pandanus leaf and then add it with the snow water into the cauldron.
-  Let it simmer on a low heat and stir it clockwise for around 30 minutes. It should start give off a very specific calming scent and effect after a while.
-  Take your mortar and pestle and use it to ground the feverfew petals and skullcap leaves. Once done, add it to the cauldron.
-  Stir clockwise at a steady rhythm, however increase the heat from low to medium until the colour shifts to a milky white.
-  Using the mortar and pestle again, ground up the pearl and only add a small pinch of it, alongside a sprinkle of salt to the potion and continue stirring. The colour will start turning pearly white, or a shimmery white look when it is ready.
-  Keep stirring clockwise at a steady rhythm while brewing at medium heat until it slowly turns a milky white colour.
-  Bottle it up and keep it stored in somewhere dark and cool for 2 months. Once the two months have passed, check the consistency of the potion, it should be watery, and the shimmer should be more noticeable. If it is then you have successfully brewed the Mana Healing Potion.
