Book Text:
The Truth of Nostrums
By reading this you have already bound yourself to its secrets. If news was to come out about this then business would falter. Take this secret with you and only share it with your most trusted of apprentices.
| Nostrums do not have the effectiveness they advertise. It is simply an ingredient that helps reduce pain, with vodka to help dull the senses and convince the wearer to feel better by themselves. Any other ingredients are mostly for flavor, though they seem to have a small effect on the results.
|
| For example, you can make a fine Nostrum by using some shade fungus, and mixing it in with the quinine, soda water and vodka. It brings a nice woodsy flavor to the drink. If you prefer, you can use ranthok roots instead of the fungus to give it an earthier flavor.
| Quinine is made by dissolving ground up katuka bark in red wine. Be careful to not get too much on your hands or they may go numb.
