Lesson 1: Welcome to Herbology
Chapter 1
~Herbology is the study, along with the use, of magical and non-magical plants.
~For medicinal, protective, educational, or purely decorative purposes.
~Each herb, fungi, tree, and flower whether magical or "mundane" has unique quirks and gifts.
~A very common and equally poisonous garden plant -- may kill you just as surely as a Venomous Tentacula if you are not careful.
~A herbologist is any witch or wizard who understands the properties and nature of plants.
~One who uses their knowledge not only to grow said plants, but to enrich the world around them in a multitude of ways.
~It is useful to be able to tell the difference between elder and holly wood when assessing the aptness of your opponent for certain spells during a duel.
~Potioneers and healers alike need to be able to recognize the differences between plants and be aware of any toxicity hazards that may need to be mitigated.
~Without proper knowledge of herbology this world would be a far less enjoyable place to live!
