I keep the ingredients in double‑sealed vials that fit in a hidden pocket of my cloak, and I only bring what I need for a hunt. I mark each vial with a rune so I know its value and keep a small ledger in my pocket. For loot I stash most of it in a locked chest on my wagon, only taking what I must carry. I split the rest with trustworthy allies so the purse stays lean and the supplies stay protected.
