Halo was fairly easily swept up in her morning routine. Water, fire, feeding the raccoon. Sedna had mentioned companions with thumbs being an ideal choice for healers... she really should work on building more trust with the creature. She'd subjected him to some not-so-pleasant practices, despite trying hard to help. The crystals really did take a toll, and cleaning the wounds around where they'd erupted couldn't be any better. That, combined with the fact she needed to mess with his ear to do it... right. Raccoons didn't speak common, so it wasn't like he understood what Halo was trying to do. Lost in her own thoughts as she was, Halo didn't hear Kotori's approach. As the pot of water began to boil, the pale girl disappeared into her den for a moment to grab more witch hazel. Carefully, she added the bark to the pot, watching to make sure it didn't boil over. When Halo was satisfied, she tugged at the handle, pulling it towards the white coals that had begun to form at the edge of the pit. It would be a more even heat, and she wouldn't have to babysit the water level. It started to drop from a rolling boil to a simmer-- good. The healer was pleased with this... pleased she could be productive, despite the grey. Halo was startled for a moment when the boy spoke. "Sorry, I didn't hear you coming," she'd been awfully engrossed in her work. "Nice to meet you, Kotori." The words were quiet, taking a moment to assess the boy. He too had horns, though his were shorter than Álarr's. Halo figured that he would likely get snagged on far fewer things. Fatalis, this was one of the Warlord's children? Younger than Mortis, Kotori was the first of his littermates that she'd been able to meet. "What's the assignment?" Halo's head quirked to the side, damaged ear flopping haphazardly. Sirius hadn't given her any sort of mission, at least not yet. To send Halo with one of the warrior sons sounded like an interesting prospect. The pale girl made the decision that today was going to be a good day. |
