She scooped some up with her paw and flicked it to the side. "Probably was better hunting in fall, but I figure I can at least see what trees with healing properties in their bark grow around here." Ophelia motioned to a plant at her feet and Gossamer stepped closer to get a better look, nostrils flaring to take in the scent.

"We can use the leaves and stems in tea. It can help soothe a sore throat and sometimes ease an upset stomach."
