Success

They bring tears to the eyes. Marvellous.

These peppery little devils don't just take your cough away, they take your very breath! Excellent. People appreciate a good cure all the more if they have to suffer a little whilst it takes effect. You've sold the lot in no time (…)


Failure

Your recipe needs some work.

This batch of lozenges has turned out smelling more like saddle-soap. And the side-effects are unfortunate. You end up disposing of them in the Stolen River, which bubbles and burps a little greenly as it swallows them.
