A special shelf has been reserved for books concerning the arts of Healing. Running your finger along the titles, one in particular catches your eye. A very old book listing many of the ancient herbs known to the Elves to have healing properties. As you take it from the shelf and open it, a cloud of dust escapes the yellow pages of the tome. Apparantly it has not been consulted in a long time. After flipping the pages for some times, a picture of a herb accompanied by the words "Athelas ~ Kingsfoil" comes along. Tracking the page with your finger, you read the text and study the picture. It would seem that at least one of the herbs in the book still exists.
