What a Day!

He had always wanted to one day pass on his trade the way his mother had passed it onto him. Had always wanted to keep it in the family seeing as at least one pup from every one or Lust's litters had gone on to be quite skilled at healing. He had wanted to teach Liberty but Aislyn had has other plans for their only child and he, being unsure of what he wanted in life, had not questioned it. But as he sat and explained the various herbs before him to the young girl he had just met that familiar longing arose inside of him, the one that had been the reason he had answered Aislyn's call that night that seemed like a lifetime ago. His smile was soft as he listened to her recite a more basic version of what he had said and he listened patiently, ready to correct her if she mixed any up. But she didn't and as she finished his smile widened to more of a proud smile a father might wear. What else was out there? He tiled his head thoughtfully and looked around. "Anything and everything really... There are plants that can do as much bad as good though if not used properly. Almost every tree, plant, moss or really anything that grows can have a use or purpose if you have the time to find it. There are mushroom that can make you see things that aren't there, plants that have leaves with a powder on them that if inhaled could make a wolf very sick for days. There are also plants to ease sickness, make headaches go away..." He paused thoughtfully. "My mother was a very skilled healer, with her last litter she had an albino and a small boy who's blood couldn't clot on its own. She made a mixture of herbs for him that he has to take daily so that if he gets a cut he won't bleed out." Herbs really could do anything if you had the time to learn it all... |
