''Give me one moment.'' Michael spoke. He wore dragonskin gloves and with a pair of tweasers he held a piece of a black flower covered winered vine that strangely enough seemed to actually move like how a serpent would. On thin extensions however that were curled up were sharp thin thorns which attempted to go through the gloves.
''The plant looks lovely but when it senses something alive, it shows it's true... colors... the more I work with it the more I start to think that it is actually sentient.'' Michael explained as he seperated the flowers and stingers from it, puting each different kind of piece in a mortar grinded it all until every part had stopped moving and a paste existed from each part.
He then moved his stool a bit backwards and put the gloves in a basket that held a strange liquid in it, causing a sizzling noise but the gloves themselves seemed to not be affected by it.
''Now. Let's take a look.'' he said calmly. He checked each potion and paste on their scent, texture and taste. ''Rejuvination potion, approved. It usually works better if it stands for a month or so. Cold paste...'' he applied a little bit on his wrist. Knowing by know what kind of sensation it had to give despite having no fever. ''Cold paste, very well done. No leftovers of plants.'' He wiped the paste off his skin with a piece of cloth before turning to the last one. The woundheal paste looks well too. Maybe a tad less honey next time but, you've done great.'' Michael said with an approving nod. ''You can store these in the medicine cabinet and clean up your workspace and head towards home. You can be proud of yourself on todays results. First time though that I had a student who grew their own plants in that fashion. There is no nessesary need for it though. Fresh plants can be taken from the herbal garden. There is a patch of ground at the back too where wild flowers and herbs grow but for beginner potions and pastes, the things found in the cabinets are enough.''
