Potion Problems
Alex the Wizard was a great and powerful magician in the town of Magikville.
He lived peacefully except for one problem - Barry the Sorcerer, his archenemy.
He decided one day that he had to kill Barry with his most powerful spell, for Barry had killed his friend.
There was one problem though, this spell required potions to be mixed in a certain order, and Alex had forgotten the order!
He could only remember a few things about the order, and if he messed up the order Alex would be killed.
Can you determine the order of the five potions (Green, Blue, Red, Yellow, and Death) by using the clues?
1. The death potion was not first.
2. The red potion was before the yellow potion.
3. The green potion was not before the death potion but it was before the yellow potion.
4. The blue potion was second to be mixed in.
