Drífa watched as Rhythm sniffed the herb the Archmaester had placed at her feet. Sight was a vital tool to her herb hunting but scent was even more so. Some herbs looked alike but one could be a poison. Even so she couldn't imagine relying on scent and touch alone to identify herbs. It was truly an impressive skill. Rhythm stated that the herb was a plant called 'Salvia'. It was used to cause hallucinations.

"Goodness, well, I'm glad I asked before letting Halla try it. Are the hallucinations caused mainly by ingesting the plant? Does it have any benefits or is it more of a poison?" She knew some poisons could have beneficial effects when taken in minute doses or when used topically. She wondered if it would be the same for this plant.
