"Spiderwebs," she repeated, half to herself. She wouldn't have thought the delicate-looking strands would be suitable for bandaging wounds--but, well, they were. Perhaps spiderwebs were common enough that a wolf would try and find some use for them. Now, egg membranes? That was entirely new, and she wanted to ask the healer had come up with such a remedy.

The quiz was moving along, though. "I would clean the wound, and then try to stop the bleeding with a poultice of horsetail. As I learned it, it's also good to stave off infection. If I didn't have horsetail, though, I'd chew up dried oak leaves instead." She took a breath and went on, "If it was a smaller wound I might apply catchweed burrs to keep the poultice in place. For a larger one, I'd use moss--er, spiderwebs, to do the same, as well as help keep the wound closed. Then monitor for infection." She hadn't yet learned how to treat infection, and Pia had never gotten around to showing her, but hey, that wasn't the question.
