Come Together [Epidemic Healer Meeting/Guessing ]

(OoC: I want to keep this thread moving along. If anyonehas a character that would want to stay back, they don't have to post a reply section to the part of my post when everyone has returned to Erani's den, where the sick are, and they can post an exit saying something like "watched the others retreat into the distance" or something. Either way, I want this to go quickly. :) <33))

Twig was first to answer Erani?s enquiry as to their own ideas. Despite Twig not being a healer, Erani embraced that small input openly. Then we shall add that to the list of plants to try as a combination. Every small bit helps. Now--? Her words were cut off as Arwel arrived, and then a female draped with the scent of Tortuga charged in after a short howl. The female greeted Erani, then introduced herself as Gossamir, from Tortuga. It seemed that the pack under the rule of Roman had been hit with the illness as well. While a part of her felt horrible for thinking it, she was glad that Valhalla was not the only pack beset by this epidemic. It meant other wolves would be searching desperately for a cure; anything to stop the suffering and end the sickness. And indeed, Gossamir brought news of some success with three herbs. Alder Buckthorn, Alfalfa, and Horsetail. ?Thank you, very much, Gossamir, for your help. Rest as long as you need.? Arwel spoke next, and Cael agreed. Erani nodded. ?We?ll try a variation of plants with each of the ones Gossamir has listed.? Her eyes turned to the Tortugan messenger. ?If we find something, a cure, anything, we will certainly send word to all we can.? She wasn?t exempt from the grief brought by this illness. Surreal was sick with it as well. Vahva, Cecily, Meili, Jinxx? And more. In her heart, she knew not all of them would make it, but she wasn?t ready to let go of this battle. Not yet. She turned, heading toward the plains. ?Come on. We?ve work to do.? ~~Back in Erani's den a few minutes later.~~ Erani padded into her den, going straight to her herb stocks. She knew she had a great deal of the plants Gossamir had listed. ?Take a bit of these each with you, and choose a patient. Take some of whatever you think may work, and try combinations. May this cure show itself with ease.? She took portions of the Alder Buckthorn, Horsetail, and Alfalfa, then chose some Lavender. Maybe it would work, maybe it wouldn?t. After a moment of thought, she took a few other herbs as well, until her jaws were stuffed with the different plants, then padded into the depths of the den, finding Surreal, and the ever present Falk. The way the male had stuck to Surreal?s side since she?d fallen ill was absolutely admirable. He?d make a fine partner when Surreal took over the pack? Erani did not allow the mental ?if she survived? to cross her mind. ?Surreal, sweetheart. We?re going to try and find a cure. I?ll need you to eat some of these.? She prodded apart the bundle, choosing two of the three plants Gossamir had listed. The two she felt may be most likely. Horsetail, Alfalfa. Then she looked over the other plants she had brought. She closed her eyes, leaned in, and came out with? She looked at her blind choice. Agrimony. It was a plant that helped to stop bleeding? Maybe it would be the one. She hated this groping in the dark guessing. But healers far before her time had done the exact same thing in other epidemics, and it was, by far, the best chance anyone had for reaching a cure. ?Hear, Surreal. Eat these.? Maybe? Just maybe, they will help. Walk ---- "Speak" ---- "Hear" ---- Think |
