She frowned at the formality. “I may be your teacher now, but I will always be your friend first, Tamar. It’s important that you know that too.” She offered because she valued the woman for more than just the healing prowess that Aquene was going to instill upon her.
 
She admitted she knew of poppy and crocus. “Yes, I use crocus often for it’s healing properties. It helps ward off infection and also helps treat already infected wounds.” She offered with a soft smile. “Poppy is a very powerful pain medicine. In larger amounts it can also be used as a sedative because it makes wolves very tired… it is also very addictive so I try to use it only in extreme circumstances. For the cougar wounds, I gave Kallik poppy for treatment. Glaukos refused the pain medicine which is his own right. Their wounds were already infected so I used willowbark to scrape out the infection, which formed as puss and drained the wounds. Glaukos had a fever. I gave him pineapple weed because it helps control it. After that, I created a poultice dressing on willow bark that contained prairie crocus and yarrow ground into it to help further treat the infection. From there, it was a matter of both of them resting and keeping an eye on things to make sure that it stuck.”
