I was walking through the nearest town which I found very familiar. It wasn't until I saw a specific building that I realized where I was. I looked a little ahead of me and saw a building called the 'Slaughtered Prince' This is the same place where Sal went to get a drink at the beginning of the movie, and where Yvaine and Tristan stayed near the end of the movie.
I was in the market town. From what I remeber, it was about a mile from the gap in the wall that separated both universes. I then saw another thing I recognized, the yellow caravan that belongs to Sal. One thing I noticed though, is that Una, Tristan's mother wasn't there. I could only assume that she hadn't been tricked into being her slave yet. This is great news for me, it means that I had arrived far before the events of the movie. The only problem is I don't know how far before.
There was another thing I was glad about. With there being no kind of magic protected money, all I need is at least one piece of each element of this world's currency, and I can use the Gemino Charm to duplicate it, and voila infinite money.
To acquire said currency, I used my magic to quickly and discreetly set up a stall and created a sign that said 'Magic Potions For Your Aches And Ails' and below that I had a list of different potions with corresponding prices depending on the effects of each potion. The powerful healing potions such as the potion that could regenerate limbs, that potion was particularly difficult to make, well, they all were as I had to find replacement ingredients that had roughly the same properties. I was able to substitute some diluted Unicorn blood to help make the regeneration potion very potent. I had to dilute the Unicorn blood as it's blood had some negative properties, but as far as i could tell, that was only when ingested directly.
Luckily this world had magical plants. I was able to recreate the Veritaserum Potion using Limbus Grass which was an herb, that when ingested, caused the drinker to unknowingly recite the truth when asked. The effects of herb itself could be noticed and even stopped from affecting the drinker if they were powerful enough. My improved Veritiserum potion had no such constraints as just using the herb.
I was also able to find a way to make almost all potions taste better. It wasn't anything I did to the potions themselves but some of the magic I placed on the potion vials I used to hold the potions. When the vials were uncorked, the magic activates and a spell that affects taste is activated. I derived this spell from the love potion which has the properties of smelling as whatever the drinker finds most appealing. In this case, the potion would taste just like their favorite thing to drink.
My stall recieved plenty of customers and I even had Sal come over and buy a potion I created especially for women which completely treats their complexion, getting rid of any blemishes and the like, and it also removes slight wrinkles.
Sal, being a witch herself, understood the importance of my potions and had decided that I was a powerful warlock. Seeing some of the potions I was selling that she had never heard of, she had assumed I had used a potion to make myself appear younger. She decided then and there not to antagonize me and even flaunted my product to some of her friends at the Slaughtered Prince and caused me to be flush with customers, mainly older women who wanted to be prettier and appear younger even if only slightly.
After just 4 hours, I was out of stock and had to close up my stall and told the remaining customers that I would have to get more potions before I had the chance to sell them again. This wasn't entirely correct as I still had at least one of each potion left over that I could simply cast the Gemino Spell on to duplicate them, but I had no need to sell anything anymore.
I had at least 10 of each form of currency and they were placed in my Mokeskin Bag that I made, I never liked the name Mokeskin, so I just use the term Spatial Bag to describe it. My bag started to be filled heavily with the duplicated currency and I could now say that no one in this world should have as much money as I could have. I don't currently have the exact amount of money that would make me considered as the richest in this world, but I had the potential to be the richest due to me being able to have infinite money.
I went around to a few shops I saw and got some nicer clothes which I charmed to be unbreakable and had size changing capabilities.
I felt I had explored quite enough for the day and decided to head back to my cabin. While inside my cabin I was getting back into my research into time magic as I had hoped to create spells similar to stopping time and even traveling into the past and future as exhibited by items such as a Time Turner.
Deep in my contemplating about my magic that I actually had a tendency to practice in my cabin in lieu of the suitcase as i wanted to study the interaction my magic would have on certain things in this world, I saw a bright light shooting through the sky.
"A shooting star? Could I be more than 400 years before the events of the movie? Would this star be the one that was found by the witches and they used her heart to go after Yvaine?" I questioned aloud to myself.
'Well, only time will tell. Better head over there, I will just follow the light and make sure I get there before the witches if this is indeed the same star that they found. Guess it's time to meet a star' I thought to myself as I created my wings and began flying after the trail left from the falling star.
