Duskfire Glacier oasis

The Rivenwood woman reeked of infection. There appeared to be a bite on her rear leg in addition to the bleeding wound on her side. Lane would apply dried marigold and horsetail to both of the major wounds. Sweet-sedge sap would do well in the poultice additionally, as it would ensure a stickier end-product that would remain fixed to the wounds.  

Issorartuyok's adoptee followed directions well, allowing Lane a few moments to craft the sticky poultice. When she was prepared, she approached the injurred woman's side.

...And she could not believe her eyes when she realized that the victim was also a child. "She--" She couldn't be older than you! Lane wanted to exclaim to Heda. Her stomach squeezed. Who would do this to a child? 

Lane regained control of her senses. She edged up beside Heda with a wad of cobwebs, indicating for the girl to slide her paws away so that Lane could do the same job with a better medical tool. "This is looking better already," Lane assured Heda. The bleeding had slowed. "You've done well. I need you to go to one of the caches-- from the hunt-- and grab some caribou skins. We will need as many as you can carry." The unconscious child was wracked with fever chills.
