Norsda Dwerg was a female dwarf who forsake her native lands seeking knowledge of medicine. She traveled far and wide for many years, eventually settling down in Ranste and writing her only work. Poultices Most Pure is a wide-ranging volume of indigenous medicines gathered from many geographical areas. Many of the ingredients are very hard to find as they are particular to a single location. That said, however, almost any healer benefits from a thorough study of the book. After a month’s time, a reader can render poultices that double the speed of normal healing provided the subjects engage only in rest.
