"The cost isn't that high. The Church is using a rather rare curse, which I can dispel with potions. The rest is just waiting for the body to recover. The cost of the ingredients for each potion is about two to three Silver Coins. Depending on the severity of the illness, a full course of treatment requires anywhere from five to fifteen potions," the doctor explained.
'Zog did a quick calculation. Just based on the cost of ingredients, curing one patient would average over twenty Silver Coins. Then you have to factor in production, transportation, and sales costs, and still try to make a profit...'
'No way the patients in the slums can afford that!'
Zog rubbed his face helplessly.
"It's not going to be easy to promote. But if you want to continue the treatment on a personal basis, I can help produce a batch of potions, free of charge, as payment for your time."
"That's alright. I can't do much on my own anyway."
