“It is time to further your knowledge of the art of Philtering.”
Aoren looked up from where he was sweeping the floor of Stormhold Salves into the eyes of his employer. Sahfri Blackleaf stood with a book tucked against her chest, a hand on one of her hips and a few glass instruments in some of the others. He arched his eyebrow slightly. That was met with a smile.
“You are my apprentice after all. If you are to excel in the Philter’s craft I am going to have to teach you more than just how to piece together formula’s in the hopes that you produce something effective. Come.” Aoren did as he was bidden. He set the broom aside and followed the apothecary into the work room. He had barely seen the proprietor of the shop all day. She had forbade him from entering the work room until she called for him upon arriving at the shop that morning. He now saw what it was that she must have been working on.
In the center of the room was the large work table that served as the working space for all of the apothecary’s craft. Assembled around the table were various stations dedicated to a different process of Philtering. Aoren blinked at the different stations around the room. He recognized some of the equipment but there were bits and pieces that he was unfamiliar with. They were mostly those pieces of equipment he didn’t work with. The more advanced tools of Philtering that only Sahri could use. The Epharyian woman went to stand by the table setting the book and her various tools down. She then turned to Aoren running a hand through her dark hair before fixing him with a calm steady gaze.
“What are the processes of Philtering?” Always straightforward and to the point. Gentle with her words but firm in her expectations. It was something that Aoren admired about her. He answered without hesitation.
“Absorption. Assation. Calcination. Chromatography. Cupellation. Distillation. Insuration. Sublimation.” Sahfri nodded folding two of her hands before her at her waist level. She gestured to the equipment set up around the work table.
“I have gathered here all of the instruments of Philtering, Aoren. One station for each process in Philtering. We will not cover all of the processes today but each day we shall move from one station to the next until I am satisfied you can go through them without prompting.” The Drykas man took a look around the table then placed a hand on his head running it through his hair before rubbing the back of his scalp.
“Great.”
