Heavens, does every first lesson of the year contain these inane 'safety' bullshit.
She leans towards Yoruga rolling her eyes and whispers.
"For real, doesn't she know everything is toxic in large enough quantities? Even water? Doesn't everyone?"

He hussed a chuckle at Otomo Mochihime's comment. "She knows me for two years now and has no idea what I'm growing." He whispered. "She looks only the bright side of things."

Momiko nodded somberly at the sensei's words about responsibility,having heard similar words in the past in other contexts. Still, she couldn't help looking over at Yoruga-sama; Was that Imperial girl a friend of his then? They seemed wuite familiar certainly...

Umeko took a few more moment to stare at the students, catching the eyes of each before nodding. "Excellent. As homework you will be researching the last 5 punishments that have been handed out to samurai for misuse and mispractice of medicine. I expect this by next class."
She turned, walking to the back of her desk and pulling out a box. "Now, moving to the subject you all came to learn." From the box she pulled out various dried plants in small bags, vials, and salves. "Herbal medicine is by no means a miracle cure. Very rarelly would one be more efficient then calling the help of the kami. They are, however, very good in some situations."
The botanist glanced up, making sure that those that were taking notes had time to jolt down her words before she continued. "Medicinal herbs usually come in three ways: Raw, solid or liquid." She pointed at a bag of dried leaves, a small jar of salve and what looked like a vial of some sort of oil.
"Raw, obviously, means mostly unchanged. A plant that has medicinal properties as harvested. Could anyone name me such a plant?"
((Students with 1 skill in medicine can get the most common answer (aloe) for free. Anyone else can roll intelligence/medicine TN 10. Skill 2 or one raise can give you Chamomille or licorice roots. If you want to roll and raise twice for an other answer feel free to))

Yoruga looked at the box. "Achillea millefolium and Aesculus hippocastanum." He said. and returned his attention to Mochihime. He could give her some tips but he wasn't sure how she would react to that so he waited for a clue. [Intelligence/Medicine (herbalism) roll: 46, only kiho on, 2 raises]

Mochihime raises her hand, sporting that cocky smile of hers. (( int+medicine 2 raises: 7d10o10k6 60)) "Well, obviously there's aloe, chamomille and licorice, but other examples are marijuana, lady ferns, hyssop, alfalfa, catnip, sage, blackberries, wild quinine, red clover and marjoram to name just a few..."

Momiko had the skill to know what they were without having to think too much about it. She let Yoruga-sama and that girl he'd been talking to do the answering though.

She didn't know much but she did remember hearing something about Sage. "Ano... what about Sage sensei? I heard it helps produce a calming effect when it's burned." int raw. 16 orokos.com/roll/589297
