Pretty herbs!

The younger boy quickly joined her in the den, offering his own name as well as an explanation for him seeking her out. Frankly, she would have been just as happy if he'd sought her out for any reason at all, just for the pleasure of someone actually wanting to see her around, but as he explained and then spilled out the herbs her eyes brightened even more with interest and excitement. She'd chosen healing only because it was really the only choice, but it was really interesting too. "Oh wow, that's great! You're training to be a healer?" He seemed so young from her lofty age of a year old, but Zeejay wasn't one to hold that against anyone, not when she herself was most often mistaken for a pup his age or younger. "Do you know what they are? Wait - your grandpa? Who's your grandpa? Wait -" She looked more closely at the other boy and blinked. Oh, of course! "Oh! You're a Fatalis, aren't you? That means we're cousins!" Probably cousins, anyway.
