Long ago, back when she was just a young wolf living with the old herbalist in her cottage, Iolaire had been taught to make vessels from clay. She hadn't done so in a long time, but now that she had put down roots and created a permanent home, she believed that it was time to take up the task again. Always one to want to share her time with others, the tiny wolf thought first of Rhythm, the kindly old woman that she had met numerous times now. The hot spring was her favorite place, after all. Io was pretty fond of it herself. She had asked the snow leopard to escort Rhythm here if the woman accepted her invitation.

While she waited, Iolaire cleared off a wide patch of ground. She pulled the grass away, turned the earth with a knife that she'd brought, and constructed a large fire. She burned this fire down to the hottest of coals, then added Osage orange wood to the mix. The wood was very dense and would burn hot and smoldering for a long time. The turned earth beneath the fire was filled with heat. This was exactly what the woman wanted.

Pleased with her heat source, the dark woman then began digging into the moist earth near the springs and began to collect the rich clay hidden there. She placed the clay upon a large flat of bark and sat it in the shade with a wet deerskin over top to keep it moist and ready for use. Now, she simply had to wait to see whether or not Rhythm accepted her invitation.
