Kani

I was selling some of my regular cooked meat. I was at the Yellow Kingdom as normal. Gaining some money for more supplies to hunt and keep my house in check. Just a normal day, another normal day and... I prefer it that way.

While I was running my shop another shop set up next to me. I looked to the side to see a Green Steve who was selling herbs by the looks of it. I smiled to them and waved hello.

"Hello, is this your first time up here?" I asked the Green Steve. They nod.

"Yea... I wanted to see how well my shop would do here. I hope it's alright..." He smiles to me nervously.

"Of course I don't mind at all. What type of herbs are you selling?" I ask them and looked over there shop.

"Oh... mostly mints and lavender. Good smelling herbs and a few for remedies." I looked at one of the herbs and pointed to it.

"Isn't that Lobelia?" I asked and went over to there shop and picked up the herb.

"No? It's just a um... actually I'm not sure... Another Green Steve gave it to me telling me it's a good hit and helps with nausea." He explains. I shook my head and put the flower down.

"No... this is a Lobelia and they are very dangerous to consume... very toxic." I explained. The Green Steve qucikly looked panic.

"I'm sorry I had no idea... I... Thank goodness no one has bought any yet." The take the herbs and put them to the side of there shop so no one could try to buy them.

"Who gave it to you?" I asked.

"A green steve, they run a really expensive herb shop. I wanted my prices to be more affordable especially Steve's that are new with herbs." He looked to be close to tears by his mistake. I just gave him a hug.

"It's alright, it sounded like they wanted to get you out of business. We should talk to him." I say and the green Steve shakes his head.

"I just need to make some money today first... I haven't been getting much in sales as of late..." he explains. Anger boiled in my skin. No way am I letting this slide. That herb can really make Steves sick. He needs to be talked to. I went and grabbed my box of earnings for today and handed it to him.

"Will this be enough?" I asked. He looks at me in shock.

"I couldn't take this... I..."

"If you take this we can go and deal with him. Afterward we can spend a day working on our shops together. Until then take what I got today. You'll need it." He looks at me and begins crying and mutters a thank you. I smile and then closed up my shop as he closed his so we can deal with this jerk.

There are toxic plants in this world but they are easy to deal with. Toxic people... not as easy to deal with and a much bigger pain.
