Richard had wanted to escape anything relating to work today but that did not seem to be his destiny. Someone had asked him about his expertise in the medicinal plants so he had ended up in this area. Even so, it was great fun and he had no issue with his imparting his knowledge when it was asked of him. Thankfully, his friend had since wandered away so Richard planned to finish defanging the vampiric vegetation. At least, that had been his plan if it had not been for the person next to him getting him right in the eyes with shrivelfig juice.
