Sarah (Houston), we have a problem LOL
I'm running low on MP and also on Life force.
I need to go in the forest to save the child.
If I prepare some hi-potion my MP goes lower and lower.
Now Briley hasn't enough MP to go into the forest, save the child and survive (I tried it many times).
Is there any way to restore the MP without sleeping at night? It's basically the only thing I'm missing in Briley (I'm comparing it with other RPG like i.e. Diablo, where you can find some mana potions that at least help you when you're low on mana).
...and I'm playing at easy level, LOL (I'm feeling a little dumb).

Entering the forest from the "meapole: east side" you have a mint leaves bush.
Bush replenishes when you have 3 or less mint leaves in your backpack.
The only way out is to create as many potions and mint tea as possible. And try to cross the forest without using magic, and get out of the fight if possible

If that doesn't help I can give you a fairly simple solution (cheat MP) if you play crt image on Vice emulator.
Backup your crt image file and/or save disk
Run game, Load save
Run Vice Monitor (Alt+H)
m$7e3c (check current value Briley MP)
>$7e3c 50 (set 80 MP points in decimal)
m$7e3c (check current value Briley MP)
close monitor
enjoy
Briley MP $7e3c
Cat SK $7e3d
Mint leaves $7e91
Catmint $7e96
I did not look for other values

When I played the game for the first time, I also made similar mistakes. Now that I know the mechanics of the game I have H.POTIONx9, MINT TEAx9, CATBOOSTx9 in my backpack. I'm almost on the same stage of the game as you. I use spells sparingly because it is easier to recover HP than MP.
It is important to collect all the plants every day, you can not collect the mint leaves far in the forest because it is not worth it due to the fighting.

A big backpack LOK.
I'm thinking to step back before the last night (if I still have a saved slot allowing to do that) so I can make more HP before to sleep.

Yeah, now I'm a lot further into the game, I'm using the amulet (not something like the witch's cowl) and charging it up when can, and brewing a lot more potions to take with me to make sure I can restore HP and MP. But I'm playing on Normal not Easy so I guess it should be like that!
