Otatso Wetlands Tabula Rasa

@Nochtli

What good was a healer that spent most of his time outside the territory of his pack?  Not much, but the chances of disaster falling on Redtail Rise were slim to none, and the raggedy man could always pick up the pieces when he returned. He never left the rise for too long anyway, his travels tended to be short and sporadic. Usually, they ended with Reek back within the territory by nightfall, just in time for him to curl up beside his mate and dream the day away.  And that was the best conclusion to his adventures than there ever was.

Reek possessed the attention-span of a common squirrel, making him unable to stay in one place for too long without getting excessively, fidgety.  Call it the wanderer's spirit... or call it boredom.  Perhaps, it was an underlying psychological issue, but whatever, fuck it.   Today, his wanderlust brought him through the herbalists cache and into the Otatso Wetlands, where Reek searched for anything that would grab his fleeting attention.

As it was his first time wandering though the wetlands, Reek found the terrain to be less than favorable.  The water was tepid and foul, and murk, muck, and mud clung to his shaggy fur like stink on a skunk.  But Reek continued to slog forward to see what there was to see, hopefully to find a useful plant, growing in the bog.
