The priestess headed to the herbs den, pleased to see that it was not disturbed in any way. She grabbed a few rudimentary herbs for healing wounds, such as Canada Milk Vetch, Bergamot, Stinging Nettle, and Poppy seeds. But there was another herb that she took with her, something she had in short supply, due to the lack of use. Devil's snare, a member of the nightshade family. At the right dosage, it opened one's mind to suggestion and allowed interrogations without much pain. Just what she needed.

Grabbing a bunch of cobwebs, she wrapped them in a large fern and took the bundle and headed back to the creek. The little female had followed her instructions and gotten most of the blood off of her pelt, saving the spiral and the pawprint. The spiral would stay embedded in her fur, but with a bit of scronging, the pawprint might come off.

"Come here and eat this." She ripped up the Devil's Snare and scattered it over the two poppy seeds she gave her. "This will help you relax and dull the pain of the wounds."
