Another day, Another lesson

Though the man's attention was on the plants, he did not miss Callisto's reaction to his words. It was the same thing she had done when the other wolves had mentioned poisons at the healer meeting. He couldn't help but smile at her perked ears and increase in interest. A few thoughts came to mind, but as usual he would keep them to himself.

Happy he hadn't just been seeing things the day of the healer meeting, Max took in a look that could have been close to disbelief and answered her first question. "Yes, really." he had paused a few moments before speaking again "You looked interested when the other healers spoke of poisons so I thought we might start on them."

He would wait a few moments but he knew no thanks would come from her as she wanted him to move on to the plants and answer her next question. She had always been that way, but it had never bothered him and never would so he would answer her question. "Yes that is the Alder Buckthorn. But the true question is, with which plant would you like to begin the lesson with?" This lesson was based upon what she wanted to learn so he would allow her to choose the first plant to learn about.
