I'm tellin' ya

Sparrow listened to the tall woman, Kanja, carefully. She said she had no intention of joining any pack. Sparrow couldn't argue with that. She thought that if she too had been born outside of a pack, she would enjoy her freedom as well. Sparrow nodded firmly in affirmation at the woman.

To Sparrow's surprise, however, Kanja agreed to help out. She made two suggestions, and Ashmedai seemed to favor the latter. Sparrow did too. There was no telling what would happen if she sent one of the pack members out with two loners.

"I... agree with Ash. Though, if you find any exotic herbs on your travels, I must request you bring some back to the pack." Sparrow's eyes seemed to sparkle at the mention of exotic herbs. That was one thing she loved to check out when she traveled.

"Speaking of herbs, you two needed healing, right? I'll be right back!"

Sparrow dipped her head and turned, giving Ash one last warning glance before she ran off to collect her herbs.

When she returned, Sparrow dropped the bundle of healing supplies, "Okay," she sighed, "Where do we start?"
