Bearclaw Valley contorno

Arielle winced again when Stryx pressed the plant harder against the angry skin of her laceration. 

The pain was quickly pushed aside as her focus moved to what the other healer was saying. The plant grew all year round; that gave the healer some hope. She would be sure to gather some for her own stash. She needed to keep it hidden but out of the cold, which would prove difficult in the winter. She would have to think about how to store it. It was worth the work considering it fought infection.

Another wince when the plant was replaced. Then Stryx said something unintelligible that had a frown crumpling the bruin-heart's face. What? she asked. Also, how long do you have to keep it against the wound?
