Steal Your Pain Away

Rœkia eyed Lukina's bowl, checking on the girl's progress before clearing her throat to lure the child back over to her lessons. "Don't be a best, Lukina. I'm sure her real name will come back in time. Now let's finish your tea. The healing properties of chamomile can evaporate easily so you need to make sure to cover the tea when you heat it up." To demonstrate how to do this Rœkia pulled a chipped, ceramic lid out from her hide bundle and set it on top of the bowl. "Then we scoot it next to the fire to heat." Rœkia scooted her bowl next to the fire and would wait for Lukina to finish before pushing the girls bowl near the fire as well.

While she waited for the tea to heat she settled down for a little more of a chat if the other woman was willing. "So, what is your pack like? Are they the peaceful sort or more like marauders?"
