Botanical study by Herbalist Thalia Greenweave

Classification: Medicinal Fungus
Habitat: Old growth forests
Rarity: Rare

Description

Translucent and pale as morning mist, the Ghostcap grows only upon the roots of ancient trees. It appears at dawn and dissolves by midday, making collection a matter of precise timing. The fungus glows faintly in darkness, a pale blue luminescence.

Properties

Ghostcap possesses unique ability to soothe ailments of the mind. Those suffering from night terrors, madness, or possession by dark spirits find relief in its application. It also dulls pain without clouding the senses as other remedies might.

Preparation

Must be prepared immediately upon harvest before dissolution. Dry rapidly over low heat, then powder and seal in airtight containers. Administer in small doses mixed with warm milk. Overdose causes vivid hallucinations.
