Vein was passing through with a mouthful of herbs complete with roots he was planing on transplanting them when he heard the gasps and grunts of a female in distress. There were many pregnant femme's around so this might be one of those, He had been preparing for this since he Aerin had found the hotsprings. 

Preparing a tincture was the hardest part but not impossible,  he had taken the time last summer to make raisins from grapes, now raisin’s are naturally poisonous to canid’s such as wolves, but these were not meant to be eaten alone nor did he have a large quantity to be dangerous, he had just enough to help make yeast and had taken his meagre collections of raisins and small dollop of honey mixed it in one of his skulls with hot spring water and tucked it into a warm dark corner for about a week later the skull had frothy liquid in it that smelled of yeast or smelled lightly fermented but not like young wine or any kind of unpleasant. When he rocked the yeasty skull back and forth more bubbles would appear. Stirring up the liquid yeast

During the time the yeast had been fermenting he had dug down next to the hot springs and created a deep pocket the lime stone he dug into gave way under paw and he was able to form a hole just deep enough he could step down into it and his chest would touch the ground in was about a wide around as his head he then dumped water into the hole and took it out of the hole with his skull mugs. He did this until he was satisfied the hole was a clean as he was going to get it.

Once that was done he had then found an entire bee hive of honey and after driving off the bees and getting stung quite a bit he had returned with a large portion of honey combs which he dumped into his prepared pool until it was half full then he carted over hot spring water until the pool he had painstaking prepared was almost full, he worked then to dig at the water like a crazy wolf, but this was only to mix the honey and water together until it was thoroughly mixed and the mixture itself aerated. Then the large white wolf brought over the yeast mixture and carefully poured it into his pool without getting the remains of the raisin’s into the mixture.
This he left alone for a month or more if anyone visited the hot spring during the first few weeks they would have smelled the fermenting alcohol. He returned now and then to mix the solution and taste it, soon he deemed it ready. Vein had then found Skullcap and crushed it up then he had set it set it aside in a skull of his prepared Alcohol it could be left .

Today was the first of many births and he couldn’t help but hope @Aerin would be near by though he was good with medicine, he set most females off with his bulk and presence. He was indeed a medicine man but a midwife he was not. He almost felt selfish for it was not just the midwife he wanted but the pale angel he had found he could not go a day without thinking about. He knew he didn’t need an excuse to be near her, but when she was close by all he wanted was to bask in her presence.

He trotted quickly to his tools picked up his specially prepped Skull mug for tea and he also grabbed up raspberry leaves and moved without any wasted energy toward the Hot springs where he scooped up water into the mug with the leaves and while that steeped and collected the container of Skullcap mixture he had made weeks before, he then strained the mixture through cobwebs into another container this was now a skullcap tincture not the strongest he had ever made since this was made in haste but it would do. Now the great white man dipped a stick into the tincture and allowed 12-15 drops drip into the Raspberry leaf tea. Deciding he was ready as he was going to be. He cradled the tea in his maw and moved smoothly toward the den he had passed, Now there was the smell of blood and soft murmurs
. Something had happened from the time he ahd past by and when he had returned but what he had prepared should still be able to offer relief and even help speed along the process.

The H-meno’ob drew closer; but he knew very well the dangers of getting to close to a female in that kind of pain so he called out in low tones to the grand master from a good 15 feet out. “I have a specially prepared tea for your lady it’s Skullcap and Raspberry leaf tea; Skullcap acts on the nervous system to help soothe tension and smooth over stress and anxiety, which goes a long way towards encouraging a productive, efficient rhythm of contractions. The Raspberry leaf tea is one of the best uterine tonic herbs to prepare uterine muscles for efficient labour. Its also helps slows bleeding and helps to expel the placenta.” He was rambling, he was nervous apparently.

He carefully stepped closer and set the tea within reach and then retreated quickly to wait near by but not so close as to cause the birthing mother any distress. “I will be nearby if you need me M’lord and M’Lady” He rumbled soothingly then settled in to wait
