Káti cocked his head to the side as Elizabeth stated that the frost had killed most of the herbs. "Oh? I was hoping the autumn here in the west was a bit milder but that's alright. I'm moving over the last of my herb stores. Mostly dried herbs and some tisanes." He patted the hide bundle next to him before gesturing to some of the comfrey leaves he'd gathered. "It's good to see the comfrey is able to stand up to a little bit of frost til the harshness of winter comes." Winter would truly bring the end of all plant life and make fresh herbs nearly impossible to find but it sounded like Valhalla was already well stocked with herbs.
Káti rose and gathered his things, following after Elizabeth as she trotted toward a nearby pond. He set his hide bag down for a moment before he started scouting through the herbs. Most of the herbs that would be good to gather in the fall would be root stocks. He paused near a plant he was pretty sure was Valerian. Reaching out he sniffed it for a moment. "I think this is Valerian, what do you think?" It was hard to tell without seeing the flowers but the leaves looked right.
