"Can you help her?" Saff asked Thundra.

Thundra nodded and Glenda set him down, unable to hold him.Thundra shimmered, "we need herbs.."
"What kind?" She asked, she knew quite a bit about herbs so she should be able to find them quickly.
He wasn't sure what it was called, "something to help with relaxing the muscles and helping with head achs."
She sighed. There were a lot that did that. Maybe not many that grew nearby though. "Can you describe what it looks like?" She asked.
He shook his head, "an older draki gave it to me in water last time...."He was cut off by Glenda fainting, "Glenda!" He screamed childishly.
Saff caught her, grunting a little as she did. Mentally, she ran through the herbs she knew which would do what he had described and ruling out the ones which wouldn't grow nearby.(Night)
((Gildor had already taken him away from Dani))Gildor was beside her the instant she fell down, "you wont find any herbs like those growing around here, the only healing herbs near this Pride are with Dora" he said knowing why he'd never taken an interest in learning Herblore, it was pointless in this area
((She snatched Thundra from Gildor))"But..." Thundra touched his sister's cold neck and whimpered at the low heart rate, "you need to get her out of the cold Saffy!" He told Saff in a scared small voice.
"I tried but she wouldn't listen until we knew where you were." She said, her worry tripling.
"oh for God's sake." dani growled. "my place isn't too far away. Bring her there for all I care." she ripped off the hood of her sweatshirt and scooped up some water from a nearby creek, dumping it on glendas head. It may chill her, but it should wake her up so she would walk by herself. The dancer dropped the hood by them and stomped off down the trail. "it's just this way if you want." she grouched, rounding a corner and following a deer trail about a yard deep into the woods. It was perfectly hidden from the path, a small brick house about the size of a fancy camper, ivy growing up the side and some herbs and vegetables near the side of the house, flowers decorating the front. Morning Glorys mixed in with the ivy, the vines tangling up on their march up the house. She unlocked the door and stepped inside, leaving the door open to make it more obvious to the others. The living room was small, as she had converted most of the house for her dancing, but it would fit all of them comfortably. She stoked the fire in the fireplace, watching the smoke drift lazily up the chimney, then threw some more wood onto it, encouraging the flame to grow into a roaring fire. She glanced at the door, wondering if the others would come. (since it's close to the path, we don't need a new thread. We can just keep it here when they're in the house :3)
((Kk))Thundra fallowed, "do you have the herbs?" He asked sadly, hoping he could help his big sister before she froze to death.
Saff wiped the cold water off Glenda quickly. She had no idea what this new girl was thinking, putting cold water on a freezing girl was not a good idea but she didn't say anything about it. She was too nervous and scared for Glenda.
Dani started to say something, then stopped, remembering that he was just a kid. "I don't know. I just grow them, I don't know what they are or how to use them. I just give them to a Verda draki." she said gently, sitting in a big leather chair and staring into the fire. "have a seat." she gestured vaguely, motioning to the abundance of chairs, beanbag chairs and couches.
(There are only visiocryptors in the pride aren't there?)
((Ya, maybe she gives the burbs to Dora?))
Thundra sat with the girl, "is she going to be okay?"
"I'll go get the herbs." Saff whispered and hurried outside, trusting that Gildor would makes sure Thundra and Glenda were okay with the girl.
"being cold takes a long time to kill someone." dani said dismissively, "and she wasn't cold for that long. She'll be fine. Don't worry. Now, would you like some hot chocolate? We can put marshmallows and whipped cream in it, and make one for glenda for when she wakes up." she suggested.
He looked at the girl worried; clearly she knew nothing about his sister and how fast she could get cold. He nodded anyways, "okay.."
"She's a fire draki the cold can and will kill her quickly. And how do you know how long she was cold for?" Saff said angrily though her voice was still soft, her backbone steeled as she came back in with an armful of herbs. She set them on a table and grabbed the rocks she had also collected outside. She began crushing them up in every possible combination.
Thundra watched her for a moment before going to get a cloth and bowl of warm water to put the herbs into.
"Thundra does any of this look like what made Glenda better last time?" Saff asked.
He looked at them and bit his lip, he pointed to two of the crushed herbs, "it kinda looked like that and that together.."
Saff nodded and mixed them. "Like this?" She asked.
Thundra nodded and held the water out to her, "it gets mixed in the water."
She did as he instructed and held it out to him to inspect.
He nodded and brought to bowl to Glenda. He set in on the floor and looked her over, "I'll be right back!" He told them as he dashed into a room. He removed his cloths and manifested, crying out in pain as his body changed prematurely. He came back out; his draki form was not much taller then he normally was, and his bright blue scales were almost enchanting.
He cupped some water in his small claws and carefully spread the water over his sister's body.
Saff's eyes widened when she saw him manifested. He was so young..... He shouldn't have manifested already.
He but his lip and tried to do what the older water draki's had shown him down south. The water danced across Glenda's skin, the hot water turning cold and colour slowly returning to her face.
She relaxed when she saw Glenda stop shivering and become less blue. It looked like Thundra knew what he was doing.
After an hour Thundra finished and ran back to the room to change back and get dressed. When he ran back out Glena's eyes were opening slowly.
"How do you feel?" Saff asked, asking them both.
Thundra watched his sister in solace.
"she ran out like five minutes ago. That's not long enough to kill anyone, even a fire draki." dani said flatly, still unconcerned. She finished making hot chocolate and passed around cups, having made enough for everyone including Glenda. "see? She's fine." she said as she leaned across Glenda to set the cup down next to her. Looking down at Glenda, she added, "by the way, Gildor isnt my mate or lover or anything. He's my brother." she released the cup and curled up in her chair, wrapping her hands around her own mug.
Glenda was to woozy to understand what the girl had said, she still felt cold buy it was an emotional coldness not physical anymore.
Saff bristled. "No she didn't. She may have started looking five minutes ago, which she didn't. But she was out longer before that." She said, her eyes narrowed. "So do not attempt to act as if you know what you do not."
"Please stop yelling," Thundra's small voice asked, "it'll confuse her more.."
((He's a little kid, anything with a harsh tone is yelling to him))
Saff glared at the girl who was apparently Gildor's sister but shut her mouth. She would bet that this was the one who had made Glenda so upset in the first place. That automatically made Saff dislike we for doing this to Glenda.
Glenda tried focusing, "where am I?" She asked one of the blobs who was Saff.Thundra smiled, happy she was waking up.
"This is Gildor's sister's hut." Saff explained.
She ground, "is he here?" She asked, her voice still shaky but also slightly harsh. The pain in her chest came back. Did Saff say sister?
She nodded though when she looked around Gildor was gone. "He's here somewhere...." She said softly.
Glenda blinked more and her vision steadied. She saw the girl Gildor was carrying earlier and jumped to her feet growling. She tried manifesting, but all she could manage was a nasty shimmer.
Glenda looked at Saff, she wanted to rip the girl apart, "why?" Her voice was deep and she spoke in her draki tongue, it seamed it was just her body that hasn't manifested.
