beginning to the end While all of these series of unfortunate events happened to Enola, Faolan was in a neighboring piece of wood. Draped in the shadows of the day, the silvery male was resting for an afternoon nap. His mother had taken her herbs and was now enjoying quality time with Mercury and Jendai, leaving him and Ara to their own devices. He wasn't sure where his quiet sister was roaming, but he knew she was within howling distance. For the moment, he didn't need her company, but he wouldn't turn her away if she approached him. Family meant the world to the half yearling, even though he didn't voice it. As he was thinking about how wonderful his brother and sisters were, a soft whimpering slashed through his thoughts. His light green eyes opened and his head rose while his ears turned to search for the sounds. There were two voices intertwined; one was of Nizhoni, the son of Loccian and Gerhardt. As for the other...his ears flattened at the sound. He knew that it was Enola. No one else's voice was as soft as hers. From what he caught, she sounded hurt and her brother was wanting to look for Loccian. Faolan's brow furrowed and he wondered what had happened. Curiosity overtook the boy's senses and he quietly slipped out of the foliage that was between him and the two stray pups. His presence was not to be a surprise, but rather a welcomed sight as he caught the two trying to find help. Words weren't said at first as his eyes and mind absorbed the situation in front of him. There was blood spilling from the small pup's shoulders and some had already dried across her light fur. Internally, Faolan's heart broke as he realized that she was in major pain and the healer part of him started to kick in. "I'll be right back," was all he said before he walked back into the underbrush. He had seen some mint earlier and he searched for the herb that would help his breath. Immediately, he munched on it and a wave of freshness filled his mouth. Faolan swallowed it and proceeded to search for the right herbs. Once he got the right few, he reappeared and lowered them beside the two pups. His paws then carried him to the lake and he dipped his lower maw into it, lapping up the cool water into his jowls. He hoped all he was doing would help. Once he came back to the two pups, he stood on the other side of Enola and looked at Nizhoni with a mouth full of fresh water. He spit some it out on the ground away from the pups to indicate what he wanted to do and if Nizhoni obliged, he would proceed to lightly spill some of the water across the wounds of Enola's shoulders. The blood was cleared away and what had been matted in her fur was now gone. Faolan proceeded to work as he took the needed herbs, crushed them in his mouth, and lightly lathered it with his tongue across her wounds. Immediate coolness and relief of pain should have been the result of the paste he had made and he slowly pulled back to retrieve the last herb meant for Enola. "Eat this, Enola," he softly said, nudging her cheek with his cool, dark nose. "These will help with keeping away germs and help you heal from the inside." Faolan waited with bated breath to see what she would do. Puppy Talk foreverFAOLAN ARADCOR |
