The Last Night

Her uncle nosed her along the path. While she still wanted to look for herbs here, she knew that he was probably getting tired so she let him herd her into a cave he had found. She moved to set her bundle of dandelions on the ground. Afterwards, she pulled the roughly made rabbit hide she had been using to carry the medicines that she gave him everyday off of her back and set that down beside the dandelion. At his question, she nodded. "First you gotta take your medicine," She stared at him and waited until he sat down beside her. Once he did, she sifted through the herbs and pulled out a couple of things. Before she would give them to him though, she got up to see if there was any water anywhere. The cave was large enough, so the dark coated femme moved further into the cave and soon enough, found a puddle that was fed by a small leak in the rock wall. Maybe there was a pond or something above them? Whatever the case, this puddle would do.

Returning to her curatives, she nosed out the small bit of alfalfa that she had. "Take this, there's a puddle over there that you can drink with it." While he went to do that, she chewed up a couple of pieces of dandelion root into a paste. This she knew, would help with any joint pain he might have in his old age.
