Rather Be {Rank Up}

Harmony was sorting through herbs, preparing to move them back to her den down by the river now that things there were drying back out, when Bass' call filtered down into her temporary den. Her ears pricked up at the message in the howl. Rank challenges, hmm? She'd been considering seeking a higher rank since winter, but what with all the flooding, and then Finch, there just hadn't been a good time to bring it up. Clearly Bass had beaten her to it, now that things were settling again into the rhythm of summer. She didn't know what Bass had in mind as far as testing, but surely any fighters seeking a rank would need to prove themselves in a fight, so there was likely to be wounds to be seen to after no matter what the other tests were. She bundled up some comfrey, some honey, yarrow, and lambsear to bind the wounds with, and a mild pain reliever in the form of bark strips from a white willow soaking in a container of water, then with her mouth quite full she trotted off to join Bass and whoever else chose to seek a rank. Lilliana, who she was not surprised to see, Sparrow, and Vali, who Harmony was surprised to see given how new she was to the pack. She dipped her head to set down the bundle, and gave Bass a smile. "Good morning, Bass," she greeted him quietly. "Get tired of waiting for all us lazy layabouts to rank up?"
