Redtail Rise A Leaf in the Wind (IC joining)

Another healer, great.  That was Reek's turf. His medical knowledge was the only thing of use he had to offer the pack aside from being Saena's buddy.  However, having another healer in their ranks would take the pressure from Reek, who had become mostly homebound as he waited patiently for the next tragedy to happen to the rise.  With the newbie around, he could travel again and leave the rise knowing someone would be there to patch the pack up just in case something were to happen.  

If he was actually good with pups, that was only icing on the cake.  However, until Reek knew he could trust this newbie, there was no way he would let him within eyeshot of his family.  "I'm might be a father by the end of the season,"  said Reek to the newbie as his demeanor softened. "We'll see how you do before then."

Saena delegated the responsibility to Reek to decide the newbies task.  He paused for a moment as he tried to think of something reasonable.  Sure, he could send the newbie on a snipe hunt to some impossible task, but that wouldn't be fair.  Saena would probably want fair.  "So you're good with plants, eh?"  He began as the corners of his muzzle turned upward into a sly simper.  "I need nettle leaves, lots of 'em.  They grow south of here.  Careful, they sting."  If the kid knew what he was doing and handled the leaves correctly, he'd be fine.  But, that was all the information he would get from the bedraggled beta before he left him to his own devices.
