Event: Craft of Dreams


Sometime later on that same day, it seemed that in the middle of a random task that Elisabeth was performing, there was the most inconvenient cough from somewhere nearby. The moment she turned, there he was again - that familiar face, with that familiar strange and eccentric outfit. "My my, what a stroke of luck! Two problems that you need solving... and two problems that I require to be solved. Our paths seem perfectly crossed twice over." This time, he reached into his jacket and pulled from it an assortment of diagrams, sketched with meticulous precision and organisation, on which Elisabeth could just about glance a rain barrel, wooden structures to direct the flows of water, a metal container with multiple internal chambers... a desalination device! "Haven is abuzz on the topic of fresh water and its lacking availability, while right on the coast of such a large body of unavailable resource. This, once constructed, should make short work of that. I only have one small request of you, if I could!"

With that, he flipped over the sheets, and revealed a second stack underneath the first... a large glass jar, containing what looked to be a dense amount of plant matter. "What I require in return is something equally interesting, if I do say so. This is my work-in-progress mobile bandage creator. Cotton and wool are so difficult to come by, when travelling long distances as I do, and when accidents happen... well, you only have so much you can stock, before it starts to take up unnecessary room. However, I have a solution. I can grow my own bandages, using sterile plants in a sealed environment! All I need you to do is procure the best plants to fill my contraption with, using your gardening and medicine knowledge."

With that, the sheets all folded back into his jacket, hidden in an abnormally large pocket. "Complete my diagrams, and I shall hand over yours! Do we have a deal?" he asked, his hand extended.

Should she take his hand, when she pulled back, there was a little vial of liquid in her palm. "Uncork that and pour it on the floor when you're ready. It'll tell me I should return. Thanks for your assistance!"
