The shopkeeper's eyes widened when she saw this. He opened the chest, revealing a sea of coins.

Archer shook his head. ''I'll take it now, like I said. Can I start storing stuff now?''

The woman nodded as she led them to one shelf full of glass jars with all the different ingredients inside.

He watched intently as Hecate approached the shelf, and her fingers danced along the jars. With a soft smile, she told him about the ingredients in each one.

She gestured to a jar with twisted roots bathed in a faint, beautiful blue glow. "Here, My Love, we have Mandrake Root. Known for its magical properties, it's common in many potions. It's one of the best for extending a potion's shelf life."
