Ravensblood Forest Hunter Down

Lorelai worked as Vagabond and Vale conversed, gathering the flowers and nettles into her maw and chewing them carefully. When she had worked the herbs into a paste, she came close to the boy and lapped a few tongue-fulls of the mixture across his brow. When she had covered the scar in the paste, she moved to clean her mouth at the pond. When she returned to Vale's side, she asked him gently, How does that feel, Vale? She had never used poppy seed herself — she wasn't sure how fast it kicked in.
