Ouroboros Spine Black as Soot, Cold as Ice

"Stavanger Bay's pretty small, and I met this girl -- or well, woman -- who's got her own pack that's pretty small too. We're putting the two packs together so we can band together to survive winter." Charon was glad that he could talk about his new pack, because he was excited about it and he'd grab any opportunity to chatter about the pack. "So yeah, we're thinking of going for a mountain, 'cause Ame loves mountains." He decided to to talk about Thistle Cloud, because he was tired of explaining that to everyone and just wanted to be done with it.

Potema asked about the wounds, and Charon explained: "I cleaned them with water. The pack I was resting up at didn't have a healer, unfortunately." He wasn't sure there was anything that could be done now -- they were still scabby, but didn't healing need to be done when the wounds were fresh anyway? -- but it looked like Potema knew more about this stuff. Maybe she could help?
