alt_wagstaffWotcher, mates!
I'm out here, stayin two turns ahead of M'Lady's Knee. Hope yer keepin safe, too, then.
Got a new suggestion for yeh.
Out here in the countrysides, all along the waterways yeh'll find a plant that'll serve yeh a good turn when yeh need somefin sly an nasty. An yeh can't miss it if'n yeh see it. GIANT HOGWEED, they call it. Maybe y'know it as cartwheel flower or giant cow parsnip, but whatever y'call it, it's the biggest plant on the bankside an no mistakin.
It looks like hemlock or, y'know, like common hogweed, only giant sized! An when I say it's huge, I mean it: it can be twice as tall as a tall bloke, and the white flowers form clumps big as platters.
Anywiz, this stuff is dead useful. First off, there's a sap in this plant that'll make yer enemies sorry they crossed yeh. All yeh need ter do is cut the stalk an collect the sap as it's runnin out. Use it loadsa ways: smear it on somefin yer enemy'll use. Or make a bladder bomb of it. Use yer loaf: yeh'll think o somefin to do with it.
But there's a second thing yeh can do with the plant, an it's brilliant. When I was a lad, we used ter cut hogweed and use the stalks for pea shooters. They're hollow, innit? Once yeh've got the sap out an all. An if regular hogweed's good fer shootin peas, think what yeh could shoot thru the stalk of a giant hogweed! With the right little spell fer flingin it, yeh'll be sendin yer shot well an true!
See? 'Sjust a matter o usin yer loaves an stayin outta harm's way while yeh do.
