- What is this? - The Sorceress glances at the incomprehensible object. - No, I don't care about this nonsense. I was interested in the local vandal, but like you, she refused my offer.
Erika pondered for a few minutes...
- Listen... I've been thinking... Since your potion... your "preparation" can lead to completely unpredictable effects, the price for such an "experience" should be substantial, don't you think... Let's say... 5000 rem. But you see... Living with horns, donkey ears, a snake tail, etc., is still possible. But if your... uh... "preparation" suddenly turns me into some kind of donkey or pig, I'm afraid your money won't be of much use to me... So, I'm not ready to take such a risk yet. Let's conduct the experiment on this instead, - Erika pointed to the mushroom, - for... 250 rem. What difference does it make to you? You'll still test your preparation, and it will be much cheaper, and I'll feel a little better about it. What do you say?
