The poor cousin of alchemy, herbary is more often practiced in a kitchen than in a laboratory. Primarily a rural art, herbary is practiced by wise women and clever men, most of which are members of witch-cults.
Less miraculous than alchemical elixirs, herb concoctions are also far cheaper, and more accessible to the common folk. Practicioners of herbary are the doctors of most of the farmers and woodsmen.
Pharmacists also use herbarical knowledge.
