When Rita returned to the cave, she would see Loki sitting on Fafnir, who now was wearing the saddle. Two blue pieces of cloth hung on each side of the saddle, coming from underneath it, both had the insignia Loki designed at the center.

Focusing on riding Fafnir, Loki didn't see Rita approach.

"Ah, excellent." Loki said as he tugged on the reins, pulling slightly to the left, this making Fafnir turn towaards Rita. "Were you able to procure mandrake also?"

Data enters a library, and begins reading as many books on the history of both nations as he can find, sifting through every book in the library.

OoC: I'm just hoping he'll stumble upon something that can be useful for the plot....
And this will be my only post, for now.

"We will need to have those that are to be removed ingest the plant, as any other means of applying the poison are of course, less then inconspicuous. So, it is to be grinded up into a fine power so that we can claim it is an unusual spice." Loki answered Rita after a moments thought. "Should this route prove to be imposible, as a last resort, we can turn the power into a paste and use this to apply it more directly."

Rita nodded and headed over to any rock that would serve as a suitable table and brought out her mortar and pestle. Using her gloves she removed some Wolfsbane and began grinding it into a fine powder as instructed, dumping the powder into a separate, sealable hazard bag. She left a small amount of undamaged Wolfsbane in the original bag she had placed them in, in case they would need it for any reason.

From atop Fafnir, Loki watched Rita worked whilst ponder what the oppertune moment to have his target ingest the powerdered wolfsbane, and the best way to do it. His train of thoughts shifted once Rita was done grinding the plants. Climbing down from Fafnir, Loki walked over to Rita. "Very good. Now, give me bags, and I shall make them vanish until a time approached when we have need of them. This way, in the event we are searched, they shall never find a thing."

Rita handed Loki both bags "This one has a little bit of the plants left, in case something were to happen to the powder, and this one has the powder. Both bags are sealed so they won't spill." said Rita, motioning to the respective bags when describing their contents.

"Yes. I had noticed." Loki answered as he took the bags, then made both of them disappear as he had done with various other objects in the past. "Now then, will you set out to look for the mandrake plants?"

"Of course, remind me though, what do mandrake plants look like?" asked Rita as she packed up her equipment

"If memory serves, you need look for leave-rosette, the leaves being approximately four to five inches wide. When the plant is picked, you will notice the brown roots vaguely resembles a human body. The bell-shaped flower of the plant is either yellow-green or purple in hue. The mandrake grows in sandy fields or rocky soil, so you likely need not search very far to find it." Loki explained.

OoC @Furioso: That's the best description I could come up with. :p

Rita nodded and headed out in search of the Mandrake plants

OoC: @Nail, other option could have been "Looks like Envy's hair." :p

OoC @Furioso: Nu.Envy's hair looks like a palm tree. Not like this [http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yJoCuFDdh7s/TAQbYJ_TnOI/AAAAAAAAAB0/O7FUdSreOzE/s1600/mandrake-42.jpg] weird, wierd thing.

When Rita began her search, Loki attempted to get Fafnir to fly, with little to no sucsess.

Rita would find next to no vegitation at the top of the mountain path save for the odd resiliant weeds, the more substansial flora growing closer to the foot of the mountains.

OoC: @Nail,
Envy's hairstyle mimics the leaves of the mandrake, a plant with human-like roots associated with magic. In Chapter XVI of Eliphas Levi's findings, the Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie, alchemists were said to attempt the creation of homunculi using mandrakes.

Rita headed closer to the foot of the mountains, staying near the area described to contain Mandrakes

OoC @Furioso: I guess there is a slight [http://www.horizonherbs.com/images/products/Mandragora_autumnalis_3_leg.jpg] resemblance. I still say it looks more like a palm tree, though. :p

Heading further down the mountain, Rita would find the soil becoming more lose, alowing more vegitation to grow, it being mostly short grasses. Heading down further, Rita would find the area matching the description. And indeed, there were mandrakes to be found, the plants being easily distiguishable from other plants. As Loki had said, some mandrakes had yellow-greenish flowers, while others had purple flower. The latter also had yellowish fruits.

OoC: @Nail,

Not sure which type of Mandrake would be the best, Rita decided to gather both kinds. Using a separate bag for each, and using her hazmat gloves to gather them
