She was quiet for a moment, wondering. She wished she could truly know how her parents had met, but she had not yet asked. What had their lives been like? She knew they had both seen endless hardships, and Ara hoped she might someday be brave enough to ask about them. But for now, she would focus on the present, and on spending time with her dear brother. The only thing that would make their outing even more special was if Mercury or Jendai showed up!

She turned to watch for his reaction, noting the smile on his face, but that was not all; a question followed, and she would perk her ears attentively, tail swaying lazily behind her. "Of course!" she nearly exclaimed, her face breaking out in a smile. She was young, and not at all advanced in the art of healing -- she wouldn't feel comfortable trying to teach a stranger. But her brother? She would do anything for him. "I- I have a lot to learn," she noted softly. "But I know some things. Like this plant here..." she motioned toward the marigold cluster with a flick of her nose. "It's good to chew for pups who are teething. Helps pain in the mouth." She paused, considering. That wasn't really that useful in terms of everyday herbs; she was fairly certain Faolan wasn't going to have children anytime soon... "But it can also be used on insect stings and burns, to help ease the pain."
