Demons Collide

Qanik was not in fact Gossamir's backup plan, or if she was she certainly wasn't aware of it, but she was there behind Gossamir as she pushed her way to the den with herbs in her mouth. Solemnly, she stood by as Gossamir crouched by the den and let loose her diatribe. As Gossamir's words came to an end Qanik took up the baton from her position next to the younger wolf, her voice gentle and soft, the coaxing tone a stark contrast to Gossamir's rant. Good cop, bad cop was the human phrase, though she didn't know it and it was unintentional anyway.


"Roman, we only want to help you. Gossamir's right - if anyone in Alacratia could recognize a poison it would be her. We've tested the herbs countless times. Shay has even been forcefeeding squirrels to see the effects," she forced a chuckle at that, for the one-eyed healer-trainee really had been catching squirrels and feeding them the cure... along with other herb combinations that actually did have terrible effects until Qanik had made him stop, "and it causes them no harm. We know it cures the sickness. Please Roman, just let us help you."
