Hearing the name of the nearby forest, Emery thought that this wasn't a simple coincidence. He recalled that the Forbidden Forest was the single place where blue powder could be obtained according to his late-friend, Lanzo, and with Killgragah mentioning that direction of the place of power was around there, Emery grew a bit inquisitive to learn more about the Forbidden Forest.
Now that he thought more about the blue powder and the rumors surrounding the Forbidden Forest, Emery came up with a possibility of explanation. The place of power somewhat affected the herbs and possibly the animals residing in it, hence the blue powder being a powerful alchemical ingredient as well as stories mythical creatures, scary monsters, etc.
Still, this was all conjecture in his mind. Nothing was concrete yet, so he asked the caretaker further, "Can you tell me more about it?"
