*Mortar walks up to him in his bed* Oh, he looks bad... And I don't know what these... Spots... are. What is this?
-
[i]nanos in his weakened state manages to say something.[/i] "I...have...encountered.. this...before... it..took..my..brother..."he says
-
Oh, damn... *Mortar looks at Nanos with concern* Dammit, I REALLY need to find out what this is... and what the cure is.
-
"On...desk..there's...a..book..that..has..the..details of it.."says nanos [i]he is in rough shape as he can be heard wheezing slightly as he talks.[/i]
-
Thank you. *He grabs the book off the desk and flips through it, trying to find this disease*
-
[i]he finally comes across reading spot drop fever..it basically has all the symptoms listed which matches what they have to a tee. The cure consisted of very strong bitter herbal tea that they have to drink under it is a small warning that lesser Fellpools may revert into there animal form and turn feral for several hours. But the list ingredients were st.johns wart , ginger, hyssop, feverfew, anise , marsh mallow and honey for taste. Nano just lied there looking at him as he leaf through the book.[/i]
-
*Mortar reads through the ingredients, memorizing them* Well this is no Tonic and Gin, but I think I can make it...
-
"Oh okay "says Keira "Lets hope it works"says kimi "You should give it to nanos first"says Keira
-
*Mortar nods, grinning slightly* Right, let him be the guinea pig
-
"No its not like he just got it worse than us."says Keira "You can test on me if you don't wanna do him first"says kimi
-
No, he's in the worse state. Right, first ingredient... *He looks through the page for the first ingredient*
-
[i]the first ingredient was st John wart it just like all of them had to ground up.[/i]
-
Hmm, okay. Saint John's wart. Where can I find that stuff?
-
"Hmm i know that mia has herb garden at the back of her house. cause she grows medicinal herbs cause of the local sometimes come to her seeking help with sicknesses and the occasional venomous spider bite. i have seen Sylvie tending it on occasion when i would wander that way."says kimi "She's really far out in the woods though kimi"says Keira "Yeah i know that but its a good chance that she will be able to help us"says kimi "Well what do you mortar do think we should ask her?"asks Keira
-
You stay here, I'll be back in five minutes. *He quickly dissolves into the ground, reforming in front of Mia's house. He quickly knocks on the door for her*
-
"Alright"says kimi [i]they both wait here as they watch him disappear into the ground. Elsewhere... Mia is in the living room when she hears a knock at the door and she gets up then opens the door. She sees that mortar is standing there and looks upset.[/i] "What's wrong mortar"says mia
-
*Mortar walks in rather quickly* I need some St. John's Wart, if you have some
-
"I do have some but who's is sick?"says mia [i]she walks over to a closet and opens it. In it there are different dried herb all in jars label and alphabetized. She pulls out a jar of st johns wart.[/i] "Is there anything else you need from here?"asks mia
-
Nanos and the Twins. *He grabs the jar and pulls out his phone, for he had taken a picture of the page before he left* Have any of these?
-
"Yeah i do and that's not very good"says mia [i]she then looks for rest the herbs pulling out jars of dried herbs. She took out enough herbs for all three of them.[/i] "There that should be eveything mortar"says mia
-
*Mortar nods* Thanks, Mia. You're a lifesaver. If this goes well, hopefully literally. *He takes his free hand and opens a portal back to Nanos* Alright, I'm back.
-
"Yeah i hope so mortar and anytime. [i]nanos and the twins look at him when he returns.[/i] "Well how did it go?"says kimi
-
I got the stuff. *He quickly takes a pot out from the kitchen and lays the ingredients on the counter* Okay, this should work...
-
"Alright "says kimi [i]all three them wait patiently.[/i]
-
*Mortar starts preparing them, mixing them together, and adding some more marshmallow before turning back to the twins* It's almost done.
