I hear the willows cheering

They had come! Padding to the edge, the girl slowly made her way out of the pond, ruffling her soaked onyx fur. The sun would dry her off. Emeralds found two deer, a mother and a child. The girl smiled at her brother as a short thank you before rushing over to Winter. The brute was resting by a tree, cleaning his leg. She stopped beside him, examining his wound.

"That looks nasty." She exclaimed. What were the two thinking? Taking on a deer like that?

Can you heal him?

She shut her eyes for a short moment, thinking. She opened them up in an instant, turning to Dusk and Esti. "Spiderwebs! We need spiderwebs!"

Before the rest could ask how spiderwebs are related to healing, the girl dashed to the nearest willow tree, carefully taking some spiderweb. Her eyes checked for any crawling creatures before her teeth tore off the soft bark of the tree. She tore off a fair amount, making sure it was soft enough to be placed on the wound. Without wasting any more time, the ebony girl rushed back to Winter.

"Now, this may hurt so concentrate on me," She spoke gently before placing the willow bark forcefully on the wound. She knew the best way for a patient to forget about the pain was to talk to him. Whilst a paw would keep the bark in place, the girl spoke to the brute. "Willow bark helps with cuts and wounds, while spiderwebs help with blood-clotting."

After pressing the bark onto the wound, Titania delicately grabbed the spiderwebs and gently did the same as she did with the bark. Paws wrapped the clear silk as a small bandage. Green optics would not stray from the wound. She worried about an infection.

"You should rest now, eat to keep your strength up. I would suggest no hunting until that's healed properly, don't want any rabbit tearing that open with its filthy claws, do we?" She whispered before straightening herself up. "Wait here, I need something else."

The girl left for a short time, paws leading her as far as the meadows outside of the willows. Eyes would search for a particular flower in the rolling plains of green. Amongst the other weeds and flowers, the girl found the right plant. Tearing it from the ground, she carried the crimson flower back to Winter. Claws would tear open the delicate plant, letting the black seeds fall to the ground.

"These are poppy seeds, they help with sleeping if the pain is too much. Once you've eaten you can take them," She explained quietly. She lifted her head at the other two, her gaze serious. "We need to move him into a den."

The girl felt exhausted, yet she still felt worried for Winter. She cared for him, hoping that wound would not lead to an infection. All that running and blood left her tired. Though she was brave and so was Winter. He could make it through. And for once in her life Titania felt like a hero, a helper.
She had helped somebody. Everything was in her paws.
