The dull ache of his serious injuries faded, transforming into mere discomfort. Just moments ago, the werewolf had nearly torn him apart; now, he felt like he could take on the world.

He looked down at the jar filled with a dense cluster of mushrooms, feeling a bit like he was in a mystical market on the silk road of old.
Glancing at the game prompts, he saw that these mushrooms had various magical properties; hallucinations, toxins, explosions, paralysis, and healing among them. However, only skilled pharmacists and potion makers knew how to harness their powers.
