"Write about a magic potion. What is it made of? What does it do? What is the antidote?"

____________________________________________

Sea glass (powdered in a stone pestle) - the colours of the great Neptune - the remnants of mermaid tears and a memory of unattainable eternal love;

Red berries of the belladonna (crushed in a wooden bowl)- deadly nightshade - eye of newt - dreams and delusions

Horn of the unicorn - or rather the tooth of a narwhal (ground to powder in a stone pestle) - to cleanse and purify

Be careful how you mix it; during full moon nights, gently stir them together ( a pinch of each) in a clean shallow wooden bowl, in the open, and allow the dewdrops to seep from the sides. Remove before dawn.

Bottle in blue glass with a cork stopper and take sparingly, before you sleep at night.

What does it do? It shows you your deepest desire, how to achieve it and the price you pay. There is no antidote, all it shows is how to get your desire and what you lose as you gain.

What you do with that knowledge - is all up to you.
