Won't Go Back to Barton Hollow [Pesto]

Álarr had had the good fortune to start recovering from his illness. Mushrooms still grew out of his ears but the were shriveling up and his cough was growing less frequent and easier to bear. Now that he was at least part way on the mend, even if he was weak, he could tend better to his pack mates. First on his list was Pesto. He carried a warm bowl of marshmallow and comfrey tea in a water skin made from a buffalo bladder that could handle the warm beverage. In addition he had an ointment made of garlic, common elm, and house leek. Each herb had various antifungal properties. He'd been successful in using common elm to treat ringworm and hoped maybe it would help.

Álarr settled in front of Pesto's den. "Pesto, you in here? May I come in?"
