Well, kudos to Circe for helping her sister out in her training. It seemed that their father knew at least a little too, and just then Callisto felt a sudden loss with his absence. What else had he known that she had missed out on by staying so distant from him while growing up? Had her mother known anything that would have been useful to learn too? But what was the point in dwelling on it? They were both gone, either dead or disappeared or both, and she was confident they would not be coming back. She was on her own, forced to find a new family for herself, and to lose herself in the training that she had so longed for. Her old family needed to just remain in the back of her mind until their memory became useful.
She willingly fell into the distraction of Max's teachings, listening as he began to explain the details of the dandelion's uses. For such a little plant, and for it being so surprisingly common, it appeared to be quite useful. Stomach pains, appetite, inflammation. Her silvery blue eyes strayed once again to the weed as if trying to determine at a glance how it was it could help so many ailments. "Useful little weed." Thank goodness it was a common plant. She was sure it was going to come in handy.
Instructions were given regarding what she should do next, and though her stare was no more disbelieving than before she was a but surprised that he should ask her to name more. She had told him what she already knew - everything - she had nothing more to say. But he seemed suddenly unsure about his intended training method, giving her the opportunity to change it should she know of a different or better one. And though she wished she knew which method was best suited for her she could think of none. It was probably best that Maximous just kept doing what he was doing. "Your method's fine," she assured him, "I'll pick up on it eventually." As for the remaining plants... "Is this marigold?" she asked, lifting a paw and placing it upon a stalk at random. Random guesses worked too, she hoped.
