Tap Tincture

Alchemists and potion makers alike value this spell for its ease of use in collecting ingredients for their work. 

This spell allows the caster to concentrate the essentia of a non-sentient thing into a small amount of the essence of the thing/event. The caster must concentrate for the fill minute to withdraw a liquid containing the essence of the thing/event. The caster must be present and able to "touch" the thing/event. The caster, in commanding voice, must state the essentia that they desire to capture. This spell yields 1 milliliter of essentia.

Proper labeling is crucial to the use of the draught at a later date. Casting this spell as a ritual will yield ten times the material at double the strength, providing the thing/event is present for that long. The essentia is stable in its containment vessel if the lid/cap remains tightly sealed if not the essentia is released and is gone. Essentia can be used in place of or along side regular ingredients.

Use this spell to coalesce the essence of:

Sight of a sunrise in the desert or a lost love

A baby's laugh or the sound of freedom

The smell of rotting fish or defeat

Touch of the last breath of an ancient dragon or insanity

The taste of Mom's chicken soup or victory

These and other essentials for alchemy or potion making can be extracted and distilled into the container with a lid of your choice for later use.
