2025.1.SEP Spoon.Futon.Life Consultation | Short Short 3

On the night of a full moon, Sahira the wizard was receiving a life consultation from an owl.

"We owls are nocturnal, but... I'm so sleepy that I can't get out of my futon. Is there any good spell for this?"

Sahira thought for a moment.
It's a big problem if an owl can't stay awake at night. I wonder if there's a good spell for that...
Come to think of it, when I went to the human city the other day—

Sahira took a small bottle and a spoon out of the cupboard and had the owl drink a teaspoon of syrup.

At that moment, the owl's eyes snapped wide open and it said,
"Thank you, Sahira! I'm wide awake now. Now I can go look for food!"
And with that, it went off in high spirits to hunt for prey.

The small bottle Sahira had taken out was labeled (Eyes Wide Open).

"Humans can brew magic potions too; they're quite capable," Sahira said, watching the owl fly away.
