      "Many remarkable creatures are found in the Ivy Mansion, the ancestral home of the Harpells, a powerful wizard family. Rumor has it that those animals don't roam freely; they've been shrunken down and placed in glass jars as part of the family's collection of magic experiments and wonders. There may be a Pegasus or two in the collection, but the Harpells don't like to see these magic winged horses fall into rival hands. When a group of vicious hunters came to the Moonwood to hunt for Pegasuses, the Harpells called on the legendary orcish druid Dawan Pax, also known as \"the Hunter's Curse,\" to stop them.",
      "Pax made short work of the Moonwood hunters and brought the injured Pegasuses to Ivy Mansion to establish a sanctuary. Pax also left behind a flask of invigorating fruit tonic that became the basis for a cocktail to raise funds for the care of the creatures. The Harpells thanked him and hurried him away before he could learn of the glass jars in their barn."

Top with a dash of bitters and garnish with a mint sprig. Serve at once."
