"Ill make you a list kid, I have regular baking ingredients, dont work that noodle too hard...
The baker's eyes flicker with a mix of amusement and concern as he sizes you up, perhaps reconsidering how much to disclose. After a brief pause, he nods, deciding to trust your intentions, albeit questioning your grasp of the situation.
"Well," he begins, his voice barely a murmur, "these ingredients aren't what you'd typically find in a market. They’re... let's just say they have certain effects that make the confections truly magical, enchanting even. They come from various, often shady, sources."
He quickly scribbles a list on a piece of parchment and hands it to you, his expression serious. The list reads: Stardust Pepper, Moonlight Vanilla, and Shadow Essence. "These are not your everyday sugar and spice," he quips with a wry smile, seemingly assuming you might not fully comprehend their nature or origin.
"You might think these sound like fairy tales, but I assure you, they're quite real and quite potent. They must be handled with care—and discretion. I need them back desperately," he continues, his gaze intense.
Noticing your puzzled expression as you glance at the list, the baker chuckles softly, mistaking your intrigue for confusion. "No worries, my friend. I know these might seem a bit... over your head. Just find them for me, and all will be well. I'll guide you on how to handle them properly."
