know a thing or two

It didn't take long for another wolf to show up. A woman Morgawr had never met, who walked up to her and said that one of the herbs was called valerian and that that was used to cure a cough, probably. Which one was valerian, she wondered?

A flaw she was intending to correct with some work, for as long as she cared to.

"I don't really know much about what herbs are used for," she said. "I'd like to learn, I guess, but I just kind of picked these up randomly." She tried not to look too eager, but also not too bored or disinterested. It was a hard balance, to be both interested and still not uncouth.
