River's Devastating D's

"What, you're in Amaya's mind?"  Johnathon's voice came from River's scroll.

River activated the camera on his scroll and suddenly he was looking into Johnathon's face as he proceeded to turn the camera around showing him where he was.

He was in a greenhouse only instead of there being light outside there was just darkness, at least that's what he would think if River could have seen the walls. Instead, everything was covered in white flowers, the floor and the walls had these perfect white flowers growing off of them. The only thing that wasn't covered in flowers was the paintings of her memories.

"Wow" Came from River's scroll as Johnathon watched from the scroll. "I never thought I would see the inside of someone's mind and my own wife."

Suddenly River hissed as the hand that the vile had exploded in throbbed in pain and glowed yellow.

"You good?" Johnathon asked.

River looked down at his hand as it still glowed yellow so he aimed the camera at it. "Not sure my hands hurting and it's glowing is this normal from being in contact with a potion into a mindscape."

There was a silence before Johnathon cleared his throat. "Sorry I forgot you can't hear my shrug and you aren't facing me. The honest answer is I have no idea, there are only 12 recorded instances of going into someone's mind. I mean it's heavily illegal for a reason you can do a lot of harm inside there."

Shuffling noises came from the scroll as Johnathon bent down to look at the broken glasses and remains of the potion with the little black box laying next to it. "I wonder who would send you this and to Amaya's mind of all places, there wasn't any return address on this was there?"

"Nope" River said still looking at his hand. "I didn't see who sent it either it just showed up soon after you left."

"Well that's strange but we can focus on that at a later date right now  we need to find a way to get you out of Amaya's mind." The camera begain to move as Johnathon walked to a differnt room.

"Isn't there just a spell you could cast to get me out?"

"Unfortunately no." Sighed Johnathon. "See the potion is made with very powerful ingredients that allows the user to get teleported to where ever the target is while the spell has a range. Plus if you use a potion to get in you have to use a potion to get out, the spell wouldn't work even if Amaya was close by."

"That sucks." River remarked

"Ooooh yeah." Johnathon said as he begain to ruffle through his books. "Luckily I have the recipe somewhere in this mess and I should have all the ingredients."

River heard Johnathon hum as he flipped through pages. "Ah here we are. Lets see here I have that, I have that, I have that, everything looks good just the finale ingredient is ... Oh you got to be kidding me."

Johnathon gave out a hopeless chuckle which make River even more nervous. "Uh what, what is it?"

Johnathon cleared his voice before answering in mock confidence. "And finally 3 Juilerdshrooms."

A moment of silence passed as River registered what Johnathon said. "You mean the mushrooms that I accidently destroyed all of."

Johnathon sighed. "Yup. I have one but I don't believe it's enough to get you out. I can place a request though some trusted people and I can try to work with what I have to try and manipulate the recipe a bit. No promises but I'll see what I can do."

River let out a breath of relief. "Thats great thank you Johnathon." River stood up and looked around getting a proper look at the place.

Everywhere, the white flowers blanketed the room. Perfect and pristine, they radiated a soft, white glow that lit the space. Not that River needed the light; his hand still pulsed with an eerie yellow glow that sent an unsettling chill through him.
