Build me up from bones, Wrap me up in skin, Hold me close enough to breath me in

Lydia had moved south into the summer heat of Auster and she wasn't quite sure which was hindering her herb hunting more.  The winter frost of Boreas or the burning heat of Auster.  Grumbling she shifted the rabbit pelt full of assorted herbs in her mouth, setting it down just briefly so that she could stretch her jaw.  She gazed out across the sea, enjoying the view despite the clumps of kelp and plant matter that choked up the small bay.  When she heard the sound of shifting on the sand she turned and froze.  A gargatuan wolf was staggering along the beach.  She debated whether she should turn and run but when he collapsed she knew she had to help.  Carefully she reordered her herbs and folded the corners of the rabbit pelt together, securing the bundle in her jaws.  As she moved toward the dark shape she saw a young woman approach and wondered if the girl was a friend of the man's or perhaps a fellow healer.  

When she heard the girls question she assumed they were not traveling together.  Carefully she set her bundle of herbs down and dipped her head in greeting to the girl.  "Hello there, I'm a healer, can I help?"  She winced a little as she saw the red-tinged saliva, was he bleeding on the inside somewhere?  Her nostrils flared taking in his scent and doing her best to sift through it to see if there was anything she could glean.  Taking a few steps closer she reached out her right forepaw and gently tapped the mans shoulder. "Sir, sir can you hear me?"  Her ears flicked forward, searching for his response as well as any signs that he was struggling to breath.
