Wiping her sweaty hands on her pants, she notices Draco's watching her from her side vision. Esme adds in the remaining Sopophorous bean's juice before making sure there are no more traces of the Valerian root left. She stirs the potion ten times clockwise, watching as the colour changes into a sweet lilac. Switching to her right hand, Esme stirs the potion counterclockwise until it looks as clear as the ocean. Immediately she adds the remaining seven pieces of valerian root and then stirs the potion ten times clockwise. She adds the powdered Root of Asphodel. Holding the cauldron with her right hand her left gently mixes the potion counterclockwise ten times and then switches eight times clockwise. As she leaves it to settle, Draco's eyelids have completely shut as his head drops onto the table, his platinum hair sprawled out wildly. After two and a half minutes, she adds the final piece of valerian root and watches in amazement as her potion turns into a pale pink colour. Then quickly poured in the mixed phoenix tears and basilisk venom. The potion switches to another colour for the last time, changing into a midnight blue.
