There seemed to be regret in her tone as she explained that, despite the bountiful supply of herbs in the area surrounding them, she wouldn’t know what to do with them. “Oh, I see.” Riva said, smile still friendly, and tail still giving a gentle swish back and forth behind her. “In that case, would you like to learn about any of them?” she would offer back.
