Herbalists' Cache wake up

Artaax hadn't been all too hopeful that the female would have anything useful to tell him. I mean, look at her. But still, he felt disappointment sink into his veins at hearing her words. He released a slow, frustrated sigh that sounded for all the world like an elongated exhale before dipping his head in a nod of thank you and walking away.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked, ever the gentleman.
