Based on The Apothecary Diaries (Kusuriya no Hitorigoto), a Japanese light novel series written by Natsu Hyuuga and illustrated by Touko Shino.
Sly tactician Lakan's attempts at provocation lead to his own downfall when Maomao challenges him to elephant chess, only to outplay him in a game of wits! In a stupor from drinking "poison" as punishment for his loss, Lakan dreams of a long-lost past, his affair with a beautiful courtesan, and meeting her daughter for the very first time. Upon waking, he finds himself at Verdigris, where he is pressed to buy the freedom of a girl of his choosing and take her home as his wife! But will any of the flowers there catch his eye when his heart is in love with a memory?
Contents: Kusuriya no hitorigoto.
