Discovering Scents
I’ve long worked with fragrances and essential oils on the surface, but hadn’t realized there was such a treasure trove of scents in the Cavern and the associated Ages. The journey to find, catalog, and finally duplicate them has been amazing — and frustrating . Everything goes smoothly unless I start looking for that box. It’s like something -or someone – knows I’ve started looking for the box again…
Well, I’ll keep collecting fragrances and studying the plants until until I can’t go back to the Ages any more. Even if I never find the little box again, I feel strongly there is something here worth examining more closely. It might even be of interest to the Guild.
And the box? Probably another DRC coverup. They seem to like us to chase ghosts and phantoms. Heh, they only say they went back to the surface. Yeah, I buy that. I’m on a wild goose chase they set up for some story they want to tell. I’m just a character in a script I’ve never had the chance to read or accept.
Wow, I’m starting to sound like a conspiracy theorist. If I start doing that, I’ll never keep my mind clear. Shake it off, kid, shake it off.
Onward to talk more of dust and dirt. More of smelling, sneezing, testing, and experimenting. I have gotten a couple nice fragrance blends out of it so far. Those definitely make up for the rest of it.
