Herbal Essences

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 6012

Ahead, Fred sees a small, somewhat run-down shack. A peeling, sun- bleached sign above it reads "Herbal Essences". Fred, seeing nothing better to do, decides to enter. Once inside, Fred is almost knocked back by the overwhelming smell. If it smelled strongly outside, in here it was a thousand times more potent. Taking in a whiff, Fred detects traces of almost every imaginable fragrance, all mixed together into a nauseating concoction. Fred is tempted to leave, but curiosity gets the better of him. Aside from the smell, the store is really rather unremarkable. It looks just like the apothecary back home, thinks Fred. The walls are lined with shelves of bottles of all shapes and sizes. Obviously, these must be the magical herbal remedies the store is named for!, reasons Fred. He picks up a bottle marked "Rejuvenating Peach Blend!". Ah, a healing potion! This should prove quite useful for my quest! he thinks, stowing the bottle away in his satchel. As he turns to leave the store, Fred sees a skeleton behind the counter. Judging from its shoulder-length black hair, it once belonged to a young woman. "Poor girl," he says aloud. It's clear that she must have died suddenly, or else she would have been laid to rest by now. In an uncharacteristic display of resourcefulness, Fred realizes that he still has the healing potion with him. Maybe that would help! Then again, it might not be such a good idea to resurrect the dead. Hmmm...

  1. What the hey, let's resurrect her.
  2. No, but he lays her to rest.
