Arsen's OWL

Arsen signed and prepared himself for making the potion. Potions never had been his best subject, but at least he could control the temperature without a wand. With a quick glance around to make sure everyone else has started he thought back to the lesson he had when he did beautifying potion and remembered they started off with 6 drops of rose water. That was simple enough. Once he'd counted six he lit his finger on fire and lit his cauldron to wait for a minute to pass.

Whilst he waited he began to count out 6 mint leaves so he was ready and waiting for the next part of the potion. When the time was up he dropped all 6 leaves into the cauldron and began to stir it 6 times first clockwise then 6 anti-clockwise. Now came the worst part... waiting. Arsen never was big on waiting around. It required patience and that wasn't something Arsen had so moving to take a seat Arsen sat back and waited, impatiently watching the clock until finally 16 minutes had passed. With a sigh he picked up the cocoa beans and dropped 6 into a mortar before moving onto the berries and repeating the process. Then he moved on to crushing them into a paste, that was easy enough. Once done he added the paste to the cauldron and stirred 6 more times, anti- clockwise and added 6 more rose water drops before bottling it up and handing it to professor Prince.
