Shilah felt a bit embarrassed as the woman gave her name. Serene, Malleus' mate. He should have guessed that from the meeting but his thoughts had been in so many different places that he admitted he hadn't been paying the best attention. Seiran was back, so at least he had part of his immediate family back with him again, even if his mother still remained missing. Shilah needed to talk with Seiran if she wasn't off wandering. The crisis seemed to spurn her to move while it simply pulled Shilah down and rooted him to the spot. That wasn't like him. He used to love to wander and explore and maybe some time away would help him get his thoughts in order. Of course, he was too young to wander alone but with Seiran…
Shilah was pulled out of his thoughts as Serene stated that yarrow was not poisonous and was in fact quite useful. His ears pricked up. She continued to explain and he fixed her with a curious gaze. So yarrow could be used after a battle to help with bleeding? Ok, that was definitely useful. At her question he quickly nodded. "Yes, I've been wanting to learn about them for awhile. I was taking lessons from my mother before…" His voice trailed off and he felt his stomach flip. Pushing back the pain he turned his face back to Serene. "So, yarrow… how do you gather it and how do you know how much to give someone? Can you teach me?"
