In this world, mugwort was nothing but grass that grows here and there. It was even considered a weed by farmers since, in some parts of Valyenor, it grows a lot.
However, unlike in her former world, people here didn't use it as a herb just like in her former world as Yeong-ja.
As such, when Stella saw some growing somewhere in the duchy, she got some pretending to make it an ornament in her private garden because she liked the shape of its leaves.
But in fact, she grew it there because of its medical capabilities. Her periods sometimes gave her terrible cramps and mugwort helped relieve it.
Stella also knew of other uses for it such as digestive problems, diarrhea, menstruation problems, birth control, or even abortion.
As such, seeing Alina consume it made her crease her brows.
'Is she suffering from period problems or has irregular menstruation?'
