Leaping Lizards

The witch of Belliniton added some belladonna to her brew, then found the eye of newt complexly out. Well, nothing for it. She would have to go collect some.

“Stay out of the cauldron, Fang.” She gave her pet dragon a quick scritch behind the ear before heading into the woods to replace her stores. When she returned, she found that Fang had not obeyed. His bony remains coiled into a decorative but tragic shape. Returning him to life would take weeks.

“This is why you should always make sure you have all ingredients on hand before you start to brew,” she muttered.
