safety meeting

“Nothing would please me more” Riva said, her smile only growing, pulling at her cheeks, which were clearly accustomed to such an expression. Her blue eyes kind and inviting as she looked encouragingly at the stranger. She could see the hesitation in Muses, the shyness and the lack of eye contact. She would be as gentle and encouraging as needed to coax her new friend from her shell.

“A Priestess? What does that entail?” she asked, genuinely curious as she laid her satchel on the ground. “And healing is always a handy skill, even just knowing the basics.” she agreed. “Well..” Riva said, thoughtful, as she looked at her herb-filled bag, and then back up to Muses, expression impish. “I suppose what would serve you best on a hunt would be antibiotics, and healing salves. Not so much flues and pregnancies, eh?” she teased.

By this point she had pulled out a small jar, and a bunch of knotted herbs that kept them to their separate piles. “This is Yarrow and Goldenrod, they are both good at fighting infection and boosting healing. In this jar, I’ve mixed them with honey and small pieces of dried white willow bark. I would normally clean a wound with salt water, and Trillium, if I have any, before spreading on some of this and binding it with cloths. Cloths can be somewhat hard to come by, but i’ve encountered traders that work with monkeys in sowing fibers into cloth.. But that’s a whole other story...” she grinned, before pushing the yarrow forward. “So this is Yarrow, it’s easy to spot in a field, as I'm sure you can see why.” she explained “Also - I welcome questions at any point, and please, if i’m rambling, don’t be afraid to interrupt me” she advised.
