Vizet continued analyzing the other potion ingredients. On the potion table were four more potion ingredients: Rosemary, dandelion, Morning Glory Seeds, and Frog Brain Pulp.
Morning Glory Seeds were relatively common in Ritual Magic. The simplest way to use them was to stuff them into a Cloth Bag, write the rune "?" on the Cloth Bag, and press the Cloth Bag under one's pillow, which could stop a person from having nightmares.
However, in potions, formulas using Morning Glory Seeds were comparatively rare. As he searched his mind, he looked at the next potion ingredient—Rosemary.
Rosemary counted as a very common potion ingredient. The previous Wolfsbane Potion, for instance, had also used Rosemary, drawing on its magical property of "wakefulness."
At this thought, Vizet said, "Rosemary has the magical property of 'wakefulness,' which means it can 'clear the mind'..."
"Since it can 'clear the mind,' that means it also has some connection to memory. This is a common usage in some Potion Formulas. The role it plays here..."
After thinking for a while, he continued, "Professor Snape, Rosemary is used here to strengthen the overall effect of the potion, right?"
"In other words... after the drinker recalls their 'fear,' the 'fear' they recall will be presented more clearly."
"Yes!" Professor Snape confirmed.
Vizet found a book in his mind, Let Yourself Have a Bottled Carnival!, which mentioned one use of Morning Glory Seeds.
"Morning Glory Seeds... Sweet Dreams Sleeping Draught... Rosemary..." He browsed through the contents of Let Yourself Have a Bottled Carnival! "So that's how it is!"
"What a marvelous combination!" he praised again and again. "Professor Snape, pairing Rosemary with Morning Glory Seeds can present the drinker with a clear dream, right?"
Professor Snape's cheeks puffed out. Only after a few breaths did he answer, still tersely, "Yes!"
