Moonspear like a lost puppy

In so many words, Kusuma confirmed she wished to be a part of Moonspear. Sialuk was not certain that the small dark creature knew what such a thing would entail, but Kusuma could learn as she went along. Talisman excused himself, and Sialuk nodded gently in his direction. She wished to check on his progress of healing, though perhaps Kusuma could help with that, too. It was typically her custom to ask newcomers to the village what drew them here, but for the woman called Kusuma, it was clear: Talisman.

Come this way, Sialuk said, making for the stores of medicine in the healing ulaq. She was careful to give Talisman plenty of space. From the stores, she pulled two bundles. If he has pain, tell him to chew this, Sialuk said, placing a paw on the first bundle. With this, she said, indicating the second bundle, chew until a paste is made, then gently smooth upon his wound. It will keep the fever heat away.
