"Well, honestly. Our stocks are getting pretty full." Tuli said while making her way into the medicine room and instructing the new recruit with her to take a seat. "But I might have something for you to do, nobody else wanted to take this request."
Tuli vanished behind a shelf and came back a few seconds later with a jar that had four red berries rolling around in it. She placed it on the bench and looked up at Merlin, but before she could say anything, Merlin spoke first.
"You want me to find you yew berries?" Merlin asked.
"Yes, and the needles too." Tuli nodded.
"Why does nobody else want to do this?" Merlin asked with a confused expression. "Is it just because it's a deadly poison?"
"No." Tuli shook her head. "It's because the closest yew trees are deep within the territory of the giant bear."
"Oh, that place that I've been specifically told to run away from at all costs?" Merlin quipped with a lighthearted tone.
