Chapter 1:

“Ow, that hurts…” Marissa Nash winced as she felt something sharp pierce her body, and dizziness from the agony set in. Noticing blood seeping between her legs, she gasped in shock, exclaiming, “Oh no!”

She had forgotten about the bunch of Dreamweed on the seat and had accidentally sat on it. The plant’s long, sharp thorns had dug deep into her flesh. Dreamweed was known for its strong anesthetic properties, meaning she would likely be numb for the next six hours. Realizing this, she decided to close the shop and rest. Gritting her teeth against the pain, she removed the thorns and prepared to put up the “Closed for Today” sign.
