Hexenholz

====== Witchwood, Enchanter's Bark ======
Hexenholz, also known as Witchwood or Enchanter's Bark, is a rare and highly sought-after herb renowned for its potent magical properties. Found deep within ancient forests and often guarded by mystical creatures, Hexenholz appears as a gnarled, dark wood with vibrant green veins running through it. The herb emits a faint glow at night, making it easier to spot under the moonlight but also attracting various nocturnal predators. Hexenholz is prized by mages and alchemists for its ability to enhance spellcasting and potion-making. When ground into a fine powder or brewed into an elixir, it can significantly amplify mana reserves and improve the efficiency of mana manipulation. It is particularly effective in rituals involving transmutation and enchantment, where precision and power are paramount. Due to its rarity and the dangers associated with harvesting it, Hexenholz commands a high price in magical markets. Legends speak of entire expeditions lost in pursuit of this elusive herb, adding to its mystique. Despite these challenges, those who successfully acquire Hexenholz often find themselves capable of feats previously thought impossible.
