Zareen has always loved tales of adventure, but had never had the chance to go on one herself. A story teller, or at least that's what he called himself, had passed through her herd a few days back talking about all the adventures he and his friends have had. Zareen knew she had to come out and try her hooves at adventuring too. She left her family in the middle of the night and started on her journey. Of all the jobs on the job board she decided Herbology 101 would probably be the best place to start. After all she's new to this.
And that is how she found herself alone in deep dark woods looking for odd herbs to even odder potions. "Okay," she said to herself with every bit of confidence she could muster "this is the area. So now it's time to find the herbs. That really shouldn't be hard," she said to herself. "Right?" but only silence was her answer.

Your pick some purple flowers. In the back of your mind, you swear you recall being warned about them as a foal... (-5 potency)

6 - 10: The potion doesn't seem to have any effect at all. He knows you tried your best, however, and he grants you a reward. (+2 gold pieces)
11 - 15: The potion has a pretty positive effect! While it won't solve all his problems, it does invigorate him and give him plenty of energy to get through the day without any groans or sighs! (+3 gold pieces)
