Acacius stepped up excitedly towards his sightless brother, greeting him with a light boop of his charcoal nose. Raven did not argue his reason for being there and that was enough for the medic-in-training, who reached over his shoulder to take down his pack of herbs. "I brought lots of stuff." He told his brother, his mischievous grin clear in his voice. Then, like he was sharing a secret, Acacius' voice lowered to an excited whisper. "I'm gonna make you see again!"

Unable to contain his excitement, Acacius quickly got to work rooting through his pack. He withdrew a long bandage made hastily from moss and vines, and began to squish yellow flowers into the soft padding. "So first I'm gonna put this on your eyes, it's gonna be wet and gross so just keep them closed." His paws worked to mush the flower paste as he spoke. "Then I've got some moss I'm gonna stick in your ears, and then some menthol I'm gonna put under your nose. I heard somewhere that if your one sense is gone, the other ones get stronger. So I'mma take away your nose and ears and then see if your eyes will work again." With the smush-bandage ready, he lifted it towards the blind boy and waited. "You gotta say it's okay, though, healers don't do things without consent." He explained.
