You would leave an expensive offering with the priests at the door. Then you could ask the Oracle one question. Most likely she’d answer you with some rambling riddle. Then you’d leave confused, terrified and poorer.

When somebody you love dies, it's a hard thing to get over. Believe me, I've lost some good friends. Still... most of us learn to keep going. Most of us have no choice".

Live monsters. Two or more should suffice. Poisonous fangs and inhuman strength adds to the potency of your potion My main criticism is that there were way too many modern references.
