Making Medicine

They moved silently through the forest following behind Red as he showed them to the herb Lucas requested he find.

Lucas watched over Eva as she gathered herb after herb. Once their bag was full of blumroot they walked to the river that was somewhat far from their current camp.

Lucas guided Eva in the proper way to wash this herb.

Eva didn't think much of the change in plans and nodded her head. She picked up the bag of herbs and tossed it over her shoulder.

"Come along, Red!"
