Blake raised his hand to catch the Headmaster's attention, "Headmaster, is it the Ipomoea alba Moonflower we're looking for?"

Lydia stood, opening her book. "So what sorts of creatures are native to the area then...?"

The headmaster looked to Blake. "Professor Snape will elaborate on any questions you may have."

she finishes off her food, her hunger satiated. She flips through her book looking for potential quests, "hmmm three and under...." She rises and cleans up. She raises her hand to ask Headmaster a question, when it's her turn she speaks, "headmaster are we to be looking for something out of the ordinary or rare for this area?"

Professor Snape skulked quietly into the ring of campfire light, vaguely hoping his absence had gone unnoticed.

Theo thought for a moment. "I'm sure there are fairies floating about somewhere but they aren't too exciting."

Blake nodded and waited patiently for Professor Snape to free himself from business. Meanwhile, he spoke to Nyssa and pointed to a creature in his book, "What about this one?"

"Any creature will do. It does not have to be rare or different. It may not be nocturnal as some beasts may still be awake but nocturnal should be a preference."

He nodded in approval at Blake.
"Yes, Mr. Deimos, it is the Ipomoea alba genus of Moonflower that you are bid to search for. And to expand on the instructions the Headmaster has given you, you are to collect specimens of what is more formally termed Ipomoea alba moonflower. After that, you are to look up the properties of the moonflower. Keep these in mind, for tomorrow we will be using these in a special healing potion, and do try not to crush its petals," he said to the campsite at large.

"Fairies might be the easiest to find. Perhaps a Jabberknoll? It'd be interesting to find one, though they are silent until they die." She pointed at the page in the book.

She looked at the creature Blake was pointing to in his book. "I don't see why not. I really wish it was a full moon so we might see a mooncalf."

Blake nodded and left the campsite, returning with a smaller bag. Inside it contained a pair of shears with a diagonal cutting blade, gloves to not infect the petals with skin oils, and a few crystal cases cushioned from one another to put the flowers in- it was always better to collect more than one sample in case something happened or went wrong. Holding the bag under his arm carefully, he kept looking though his book, "Maybe we should walk on and keep an eye out for wild life instead."

With his announcement made and assignment given, Professor Snape went inside his tent to rest from the exhausting day he had had, and to prepare for the next day.

"Sounds good," she said summoning her collection supplies. "Where do you think we should check first?"

"We can walk around and see what we find and if needed we can search out creatures if needed." he suggested.
