Sorting By Moonlight... And Nouns

IOI: 5

You come home from a day of rescuing small children and recovering priceless heirlooms. You're tired, but energized. That lovely lady you've been courting has allowed you to take her out to dinner this evening. You quickly get dressed in your best clothes. The cufflinks. The nice shoes. The shirt without bloodstains. You've got the wine. You've got the picnic basket. You've got the Minor Sanctuary scroll. But in the back of your mind, you know something's still missing...

The roses. You need roses.

Wait...you have roses! But you need two dozen of them. Twenty-three simply won't do. How many do you have? You look in your bag...they're all different kinds! Pink roses, red roses, white roses, yellow roses! What if you lose count? Oh, what to do?!?

Use SORT NOUN.
