8 First Ques (1/2)
”Hello, and welcome to my shop.”
”Do you buy herbs here?”
”I do, depending on the quality. May see what you have?”
I pull out the herbs I have and set them on the counter. The man delicately inspects each plant giving either a nod or a 'hmmm.' I have done some gardening in the past, so I knew how to handle plants a little.
”You are quite skilled at gathering herbs, but you could do better. I have been thinking of retiring for a while. My only regret is I have never passed my skills on to anybody. You appear to be a kind person and quite capable. Would you like to be my apprentice?”

I look at the quest window that popped up in front of me, and from what I know, the rewards seem good.
”Uh, yes. I would like to learn from you.”
”Excellent. My name is Atarum, but I prefer it if you just call me Old Man. For your first lesson, we need to travel to my garden. There I will teach you how to properly harvest plants. Come follow me.”
I follow Atarum to the back of his shop, where he had a small garden outside.
”This a basic harvesting kit. It comes with some basic tools to help in harvesting. Now, remember the first thing you need to know is…”
I spent the remainder of the day, learning how to properly harvest plants. It was enjoyable and relaxing, and the best part was Atarum said that once I learn how to make potions and medicines, I can make money with them.

I made my way back to the inn I stayed and had dinner to refill my hunger. I then debated on whether I wanted to go to the bath. I realized I was still covered in blood from the boar, so I decided to go.
Inside I looked around to make sure that girl wasn't in here at this time. I quickly washed and didn't soak in the hot bath.
I asked the woman on the first floor if I could have a bucket of water and if they had some soap. I wanted to wash my clothes to get some of the blood out of them.
Back in my room, I undressed and used the bucket to wash the clothes and scrub some of the leather pieces. I hung them up by the window and then laid down in bed. Once I was in bed, I was then able to rank up my harvesting skill.
Harvesting: [Rank D] (Passive) 65% success rate harvesting plants of the same rank. 25% success rate harvesting plants of a higher rank.

Once I was done, I then looked at my stats to see where I was sitting at and try and plan my activities for tomorrow.
