I've taken an interest in young 35's strange dreams. I know there was some concern about whether or not Mrs. Umbra was paying our colleague a visit, but I don't believe this is the case. Mrs. Umbra isn't much of a dreamer herself. She prefers a more active approach. And considering whatever it is that plagued 35's dreams also woke her up in a fright, it is safe to say it's not Mrs. Umbra. Not this time. But if we could have a... sleep study, of sorts, perhaps I could study her sleeping patterns. Although I know it can be hard to fall asleep in a clinical setting, so perhaps an herbal tea is in order.
I'll need Valerian Root, Chamomile, Corn Flowers, and Peppermint. A fairly simple shopping list, but it might still take a few days or weeks to find the proper ingredients. From what I could find in the yellow pages, most of these herbs can be found at Carroll's Naturalist Pharmacy. I've never personally been there, but it shouldn't be too hard to find. The recipe is straightforward, first the Valerian Root, something I am familiar with. Then the Chamomile should be... well, not too hard to work with. Then the Corn Flowers are something I can figure out by taste. Oh, and of course, there is Peppermint to worry about.
While I am more than happy to make this blend myself, there is, perhaps, a more skilled tea artisan than myself. Perhaps the Owner would rather take the reins on this? Of course, I'll be assisting through the whole process, but I can't say for certain what lurks within 35's dreams. There is a good chance that whatever secrets would be uncovered at our sleep study would be better kept by the Owner. Of course, there is a slight problem with this plan. While I already know how to work with Valerian Root and (more or less) Chamomile, the Owner, to my knowledge, has not worked with these ingredients before. Well, at least not Chamomile. Ultimately it is up to him. But perhaps her dreams can help us better understand the Owner's own affliction.
