[She hefts a rather large looking book onto the table in front of her, a bright smile laid upon her face.]

It seems my fortune that the High Queen of the Seelie Court has granted me a skill of this kingdom. I've been given an old tome of the previous potion master here, and while I have no knowledge of magic not witchcraft it seems my interest in alchemy, poisons, and antidotes may transcend realms.

[A hand smooths over pages as she begins to turn.]

I wish to do whatever I can to help those here, to both protect myself and do what I can for those who cannot. But as I said I've no great skill in magic. I have already met one kind witch here, and I must call upon the kindness of others to guide me. I will not squander this gift.

If there be any in either court with any knowledge in potion making, I would wish to speak with you. My thanks. [It's a noble bending of her head before she leans in to switch the feed off.]

What would you do with potions?

The work I do back home (chemistry) is likely equivalent to what they're calling potions here. Do you have any specific aspect of the field in mind? I can try and assemble a reading list.

Oi, I've got one, darling! One part molasses, one part sugar, one part water. Add in the tiny yeasties. Do various and sundry other things to it. Then give it to me.

[It's worth a shot. The rum at the Station is so mediocre.]

[ curious. ]

I was not aware you had such interests, my lady.

[ringbeast]

Sweet, sweet, sweet!!!!

[He jumps up, thrilled, making the image on his locked jiggle around.]

I'm really only able to do spells and stuff, but knowing anything at all about potions and whatnot is beyond me. I'm real jealous!

Oh, man, I wonder if you could make mayo, too.

[This woman carries herself well and seems to be of noble bearing, and so Flora makes her own adjustment before speaking, if only slightly; she's well-mannered by nature, it doesn't take much for her to be court-levels of polite.]

Good day to you, my lady. I do not believe we've met. My name is Flora. [There is a gentle incline of her head before she smiles.]

It just so happens that potion making is a favourite subject of mine.. [Not that there's a subject of magic she doesn't like, but still.]

You won't want a man with a loose tongue for these matters. The one who'll speak for your coin will sell you for another's. And the one who'll tell all freely will betray you for sport.

I have some knowledge of such things. [Rather an understatement, at least when it comes to antidotes and healing potions. But still-] Alas, I fear distance will prevent me from offering any proper instruction if you are in Caer Glaem still. [There is always the lockets, though, and the fact that she's spoken up at all shows that she's not entirely unwilling.]
