"Blacksmith Ironforge, Wester, and Ms. Alderleaf sent them. Good for milk and hair and to fend off that winged cat. Haven't seen it or that dragon recently though; thank Chauntea."
"We are heading south to warn others of the dragon and then inspect an area that could possibly be used to house the townsfolk if things go badly," Wolfsong answers. "You were on our way so we thought to check in on you. Though if you have any potions for sale we have come to a fair bit of coin in our travels and would be looking to buy anything you have."
Robwin says, “Yes I’ll take one as well!… And do you have any of your tasty, restorative tea?… Or anything else of interest? Any new concoctions?”.
Robwin also shows Adabra the formulae the party gained for potions of invisibility and necrotic resistance. “Also, we came across these formulae… for potions that might prove useful. Are these something you’d be able to prepare for us??… if it helps, we have a working lab set up just outside of town, in the old redbrand hideout, or do you have your own equipment?”.
He also takes out his spellbook and shows her the recipe for the Philter of Love he acquired from his visions with the women in the weave. “Or this one? I have a couple of owlbear feathers if it helps”.
While listening to Robwin and reviewing the formula,
Ms. Gwenn says, "Well, these are incredibly rare, aren't they? Yes, I would need a laboratory. I will tell you, I have a bit of an apprentice in Phandalin. They could assist you with the Invisibility and resistance potions, if you have the ingredients. That Philter is too advanced for them and frankly I'm a bit uncomfortable that such alchemy exists. Still, come winter, I would be willing to visit and prepare it for you. Provided you pay compensation accordingly, of course.
As for the tea, yes, I have some available. I will give you a batch. You look up my dear, Narelle Dendrar. Lovely girl. Grandmother was an excellent alchemist."
[Medical tea: Five small packets. Boil a packet during a long rest. Makes three small servings. Each serving provides 1d4 healing. The tea only works on one per person per short rest. It doses don't stack on itself.]
[House rule: taking a potion or applying a poison is an advanced bonus action; do it before your action. Giving a potion to someone else is still an action.]
Robwin pays for and stows his healing potion. “Thank you, Ms. Gwenn, and remind me: once brewed, how long does a small serving of tea last if we keep it in a vial or flask?”.
Then a concerned look comes over Robwin’s face, “To be honest, I was concerned like you, about the powers of the Love Philter… … But my research has lead me down this path. The Weave moves in mysterious ways, to say the least!…”.
”But consider this: for now this formula is safe with me. Better it be here in my book than in the hands of others. Hmm?… I hope we’ve proven our honour with the town? You can trust me not to abuse the power, I swear.”
”And besides, actually, I think you’re right! Maybe we DON’T brew that one just yet… … Yes, I say we save that one for another time, and hope we never need to brew it!!”.
”For now, if we can work on the potion of invisibility? That one might prove very useful in the near future. Can I leave that one with you to create for me? Will you see your apprentice in town soon? Or should we approach them when we come back through?… Oh, and how much would one or two potions of invisibility cost us?”.
Ms. Gwenn starts laughing, "It seems, Robwin, your thoughts outrun your ears at times. Ha! Ha! Now, listen a moment. My apprentice is in Phandalin. Her name is Narelle Dendrar. Find her. Give her access to your laboratory, formula and ingredients. She'll be able to make the potions for you. I don't have what is needed here."
"Now, the tea will keep for a tenday once brewed."
"And, I don't know what you've been up to in Phandalin but it sounds like you're very busy."
"Now, I need to get back to my garden. And you all be careful."
She's mercurial in the way she swings from doting aunt to shrewd business woman to crochety hermit. It is exactly who she has been on each of your encounters.
"If anyone else wants a batch of the tea, fifteen gold, but I only have two more. Otherwise, I will be back to my work."
"Thanks, Miss Gwenn," Rinn says he puts the potion in his pack. "Have you seen that manticore again lately?"
"I haven't seen that winged cat nor that dragon, but a goat did go missing without so much as a bleat, so I assume that manticore took it. The dragon was quite a bit louder wasn't it."
Robwin replies to Adabra, “Ah that makes more sense. Thank you for all you’re help. And for the potions and the tea. I’m glad you’re okay. We’ll leave you in peace”.
((OOC: Robwin is happy to move on when the party is all finished))
It takes a bit longer than you expect to get to Umbrage Hill, but you arrive without issue.
You do see Ms. Gwenn tending her herbs.
There are a few new wind chimes and a goat pen near the old house ruin where you camped last time you were here.
What are you doing?
(( Waving and moving on, engaging, batttering/buying, checking in, something else? ))

TT would be very happy to see Ms Gwenn is doing well.
"Hello Ms. Gwenn. You've been busy, look at all the adorable little goats"
"Hello, again, TT, wasn't it?"
"Blacksmith Ironforge, Wester, and Ms. Alderleaf sent them. Good for milk and hair and to fend off that winged cat. Haven't seen it or that dragon recently though; thank Chauntea."
"What can I do for you lot?"
"We are heading south to warn others of the dragon and then inspect an area that could possibly be used to house the townsfolk if things go badly," Wolfsong answers. "You were on our way so we thought to check in on you. Though if you have any potions for sale we have come to a fair bit of coin in our travels and would be looking to buy anything you have."
"Ah! That's very good. Yes. I have six Potion of Healing for forty gold a vial."
Rinn rifles through his bags for forty gold, "May I have one please, Miss Gwenn?"
Robwin says, “Yes I’ll take one as well!… And do you have any of your tasty, restorative tea?… Or anything else of interest? Any new concoctions?”.
Robwin also shows Adabra the formulae the party gained for potions of invisibility and necrotic resistance. “Also, we came across these formulae… for potions that might prove useful.
