I sat among the small flowers as re-oppened my book, this knowledge did indeed have some great detail that I would like to know, but I had already read the book previously this morning, my point of focus moved away from the book and back to reading the book this morning. The wind blowing the yellow hair from my face as the sun looked upon me chearfully. A flashback started playing through my head of this morning.

;flashback]

The cereal tasted crunchy in mouth as i took another mouthful, the bowl of cereal to the side of the book as i opened the cover, of the book from the strange words that titled the book, opening the cover of the book I had to use my empty glass of orange juice from preventing the hard cover from closing again, afterall it was a very new book. Forcing another bowl of cheerios down my mouth I began to read the printed text held within the infamous grasp of the book.

"Lets tackle this mother fucker"

I said as i folded the coarse paper over and flicked to the first page which detailed me upon the story of herbs, I began to flick to the first page, a bird whistled outside my window as i enjoyed the sweat melody before rubbing my head from the headache the pigeon had caused and began to read the first paragraph of the book. Although the book had a set words, they were somehow translated inside my head;

welcome to herbalism

Stepping back to my table I pulled the chair from under the table and plonked myself down onto its cushiony surface, my buttox feeling relaxed and comfortable I looked back to my book, the glass had slipped and was now rolling across the table slowly, grabbing it before it ran over the edge I grasped the cool surface of the class and stood it up as I ran my fingers across the hard surface of the book, the words scratched into the surface of the cover tickled the tips of my fingers as i caressed the book before opening the cover to greet the new book smell that still lingered over the books.

Turning over the pages again, that displayed the vast obvious knowledges of the herbaist art I returned to the tellings of how to find the herbs, the book sounding different in my head than it did on the actual paper.

• Seasons
  Some herbs are unique in the coastal region and can only be picked within certain times of the year, as due to climate and multiple other factors the part of the plant that is taken for the herb will not grow, or bloom till a specific time of the year, this time was different for each herb. Although some are effected little by seasons blooming constantly throughout the seasons.
  
• Cost
  Herbs can be sold, only if they have not been used and therefor still retain their unique ability, otherwise they will not be able to be sold and will be reguarded as useless. The herbs also have different prices depending upon which reqion you sell them in, if you sell the herbs in a country that has a reqion opposite to the region the herb is from then you will be able to sell the herb for 80% of the opposite price.

I turned the book i was previously reading over, the front cover facing upwards as I ran my fingers over the ruby coloured book, the gold lettering ingraved into the cover, but unfortunately the book did not have the region on it, but instead it read the words 'B.I.N.G.O' the words did not make too much sense to me, but I heaved a heavy sigh and pushed the book to the side and picked up the second book that he had purchased, the second book he had brought fell onto the table with a soft thump, as I pulled it from the floor and dropped it on the table. I heaved a sigh tilting my chair back onto its hind legs as I rolled my eyes up as i arched my back over the edge of the chair, my back popped several times as I arched my back further. With a loud laughing scream I tumbled backards, hitting my head on the floor as the chair lost its grip on the floor and stumbled to the ground, pulling me along with it. I flet a bang across the back of my skull, A bump under my skin forming, with a bruised sensation in my head and a feeling of my brain being shook up rang through my head, essentially giving me a headache.

I shook my head as I gathered myself to my feet, my hair a muck, I ran my hand through it, straightening my hair with one hand I grasped the solid bamboo chair in a grasped fist, the chair comprised of wooden poles was not too hard to lift. Replacing the round seat cushion back onto the appropriate position on the bamboo seat. I drew myself to sit back comfortably down to rest my buttox on the seat as I began to read the book before me. Opening the book, I began to read the book, as witht eh previous book, the words of the book translated into my own words inside my head. This is how I read the introduction of the book;

• Introductory Section
  Welcome to another book about the book of Herbalism, this book teaches you about the gathering of herbs within a certain region, the book this region tells you about is the coastal region. The coastal region is a region in all countries with a coast to the ocean, there are four countries that do not have the coastal region inside them, they are: Land of Grass, Land of Bear, Land of Rain and the Land of Bear. Herbalism is a morally rewarding proffession, and if done right can also be financially rewarding.
  
  
• Gathering
  When you are gathering herbs you must always take precautions, these precautions are for your safety and to retain full quality of the herb, if the herbs lose their properties, they are both priceless and unable to be used for the purpose it is designed to be used for. This book will teach you how to gather and extract the herbs without the effects of the plant reflecting onto you and the effects of the plant wearing off and therefor becoming just any piece of plant, as a herb without its unique property is just that.

I took a deep sigh as I drew myself from the book and took my eyes once again to the room, my crystal blue eyes gazed deeply around the room, looking out at the flickering candles that iluminated my eyes to a light blue haze, with a smile that curled around my mouth as I reached into my pocket, pulling out the long slender form of a cigarette, the cigarette was tipped orange at the end where the filter was, as if someone would try smoke it backwards. Sliding it discreetly between my pale skinned lips, i could taste the dried and treated herbs that was rolled in the paper. Lighting a match, my face was illuminated by the bright flame that was folded in the reaction on the tip of the match, as the wooden stick began to burn, I put it to the tip of the cigarette, the leaves inside the cigarette were not really a true herb, they after all did not hold the proper porspects. The smoke of the leaves filled my lungs as I took a long drag through the filter and the soothing feeling of smoke filling me put my head into a spin, my last cigarette had not been for a while and I was currently feeding his fix.

Taking another deep puff through the cigarette, i felt my smokey breath tickle over the unshaven lip as i exhaled the smoke in a large puff through my lungs. I cradled the burning stick between my index and middle finger, the cigarette turning to ashes, i flicked the filter of the cigarette with my thumb and the ashes sprinkled to the table top. My eyes gazed off into the distance as my brain ran aflux with smoke, the strong pungent smell of the smoke soon filled te room as the smoke trails danced across the candle light, producing patterns across the dark night sky. I smiled mindlessly as I turned the page, to a greatly detailed two pages, one consisting of a large picture, as always I read the page differently than the page was actually viewed.

• Anserke
  
  SPOILER: Click to show
  Location: During the Summer Season, this can be found in Tropical Coastal regions
  Preparation: None
  Special: There is a 30% chance this can be found in the Summer in Tropical Regions.
  Description: The root must be applied to a bleeding wound. Within three rounds it will have stopped the bleeding. The recipient must not move for one turn or risk the wound reopening.
  Drawback: None
  Cost: 11,750 Ryo Full Price in Region, 23,500 Ryo Full Price in Opposite Region, 3,750 Ryo Extract Cost for 2 uses in Region, 7,000 Ryo Extract Cost for 2 uses in Opposite Region
  
  
  The name of this herb, much like many others is named for unknown reasons such in a language I could not understand, the name was an interesting name. This is a herb off a plant that grows only in tropical parts in the coastal regions, and due to this the herb can not be extracted from the herb in a season other than the summer seasons. If it is extracted in a time other than summer, it will not display the properties that make it a herb, this herb is not extremely rare, but as there is only a thirty percent chance in finding this herb it can still be quite a common herb to find, but of course only in the summer time on the tropical coast of the coastal region. The herb needed no preperation at all, the herbs special effect being that if the herb is applied toa bleeding scratch, gauge, cut or other bleeding wound, it will have stopped all bleeding in 3 rounds aslong as the recipient does not move for at least one round or the wound may reopen.
  
  The science behind this herb is that if you apply this herb to a bleeding wound, the herb will increase the process of the blood clotting around the wound and decreasing the blood flow exiting through the wound. Even though the blood clot will stop the bleeding, it will infact will not be strong enough to stop the bleeding and allow tension on the wound, so the one with the bleeding wound must stay still enough for the blood clot to build up strength to resist the tension of movement.
  

I sighed as I took another drag from the shortening cigarette, the paper burning slowly with the herbs inside it, my eyes drifting from the white paper of the book and onto the white smoke drifting through empty space in the candle lit room. The cigarette filter gripped between my pearl fangs as I breathed through the smoking stick, tails of smoke drifted from my nose, to spread into the smoke show of dancing patterns across the candle light. The smoke show becoming my own personal show of alternating patterns. I turned my deep blue eyes back to the book, a black and white picture inked on one of the pages, I ran my fingers over the bumps of the ink on the page, I saw the picture differently to how others may have seen the picture, it was after all translated in my mind.

;still flashback]

Cigarette still clasped between my two pale lips, I sucked in smokey air before plucking the ripe cigarette from my mouth and sprinkling the ashes across the cheap wooden table, burns ran across the table in sprinkle as evidence of previous smoking. I exhaled clean air for the first time in a few minutes, as i stubbed out the remains of the cigarette, having burned right down to where the glue sealed the paper I after all did not want to smoke the glue. Sighing with a grin I felt his body go mellow as I relaxed himself, my chest heaving up and down slowly in my sleeveless vest, the woolen hat lay abandoned on the table under a deserted can of soda. Grabbing the can i pulled the metal tab at the top with the left canine of my mouth, the alliminium can opening easily and spilling cool liquid down into my thirsting throat. The soda tasted refreshing and different to the taste of the cigarette, the cigarette after all had a foul lingering taste that hung in my tastebuds, so at first the soda tastes wrong, then eventually it felt better as the raspbery flavoured liquid slid down my dry throat refreshingly. Swapping my invisionment from the soda can as i placed it down own the scarred table I paid attention once again to the herbalism book.

• Belan
  
  SPOILER: Click to show
  Location: This Herb can be located at a Coastal Region around the Summer Seasons.
  Preparation: None
  Special: There is a thirty five percent chance that this herb can be found within the Coastal Region.
  Description: The nut must be eaten to stop bleeding (including internal bleeding). Within two hours it will have stopped the bleeding. The recipient must not move for one additional hour or risk the bleeding restarting. The nut is small, but it is a light shade of brown.
  Drawback: ---
  Cost: 11,750 Ryo Full Price in Region, 23,500 Ryo Full Price in Opposite Region, 3,750 Ryo Extract Cost for 2 uses in Region, 7,000 Ryo Extract Cost for 2 uses in Opposite Region
  
  
  Belan is certainly an interesting herb, the product in itself, is not really in how people see a traditional herb, but is classed as a herb due to the definition of a herb does not take a specific physical form. Herbs can be roots, leaves or any other part of a plant and in this case the herb can be a nut, this nut is a small round piece of plant that falls from some sort of nut tree, the nut has a shell around it and the way the shell surrounds the nut in a protective manner. The way the nut is protected by the shell is similar to way the nuts effect acts in a passive and protective manner, although the effect of the nut is so outwardly protective it is after helpful and does protect you on the inside.
  
  The effect of the nut is almost like the last herb, it deals with the use of preventing the consumer of the herb from losing blood, but instead of directly stopping the blood on the inside like the previous herb, this small wooden looking nut will stop the bleeding on the inside, the nut will cause blood to clot on the inside, helping in the prevention of internal bleeding aswell as external bleeding, this will protect the consumer from losing blood after being stabbed or recieving large amounts of bleeding but is not as fast working as the last herb as it will take upto two whole hours to stop the bleeding and another hour the recepient of the herb must stay physically still to prevent the blood clots ripping or tearing and the herbs effect end up being a waste of time. The price of this nut in the region that you may pick it in will cost 11,750 ryo and this means that the price in a region that is not a coastal region will make this herb double the price than to buy it in a coastal region which is 23,500 ryo. The nut will sell for 80 percent, selling for 9,400 ryo in a coastal region and outside a coastal region for 18,800 ryo, the price is greatly larger than Anserke probably due to the higher rarity of the herb.
  
  The herb is also probably more expensive due to the stronger efect of the herb as to Anserke, which has a lesser effect of this nut. The nut is a light brown nut, almost a creamy colour. The nut is also almost pill shaped, being narrow and long, and can be mistaken for an almond if you did not understand the proper herbs. The shape of the nut is slender so it can be taken down the throat easier.

Taking my hands from the ground a roaring wind whipped past my ears and I knew it was time to go, the sandy yellow hair that flowed from my skull whipped around my neck and shoulders. I stood to my feet, the wind wrapping across my chest beneath my shirt, I grinned to myself eagerly, as I began to jump back to cloud.

I entered from the left this time, walking along the sandy beaches, a cool refreshing wind sprayed the ocean breeze across me as I began to look for the not so unique herb called draaf. Draaf was not the name of the plant of course, but more so it was the name of the leaves that were the herb, the herb was rare and yet again it wasn't, impossible to find in a time other than the fresh spring time, checking the leaves on the plants hidden among the bushes I searched the scrubbish growth that lined the coast, checking the bark and leaves of the trees to check if it was not draaf, I knew what the plant would look like and would knew it would not take me too long to find it. Once it had been found I would gather it and put it in my pouch which contained no weapons at the current time, therefor making it an easier to carry the herbs.
