🌺LilyClan🌸The Clever and Proud! Medicine cat & app Open!

"Most likely. Well just have to wait." Sparrowleap agreed.

Bluepaw could nearly taste the plant in her mouth, she was so close. When she stumbled upon a few prickly leaves. She pawed at them and gently pushed the frost off. "I've seen these in the den before, but I never asked what they were." Bluepaw meowed, tilting her head curiously at her mentor. "They're mostly in tact, are they salvageable?"

(They're blackberry leaves!)

Not the worst find for her first time! At least the plant had a purpose, even for something as minor as a bee sting. But that wasn't what made Bluepaw puff her chest out in pride. It was Mallowbreeze's praise and belief in her that made the young apprentice feel as if she could swim up river and never get tired. "Th-Thank you, Mallowbreeze!" She meowed. "I couldn't do any of this without you, though. You're a great mentor!"

"I'm more than ready to learn!" The apprentice meowed, eyes still shining from being praised. She had found one herb, she would certainly be able to find another. Bluepaw breathed in the scents of the forest. She could still smell the freshly picked blackberry leaves and sone where close by the scent of a mouse. She put those aside, picking through and organizing the differences between the many smells. When she caught something familiar in her mouth, she went off, hardly waiting for Mallowbreeze to catch up. She arrived at the root of a tree, a crispy plant dripped with water from the melting snow. "I know this plant. It's borage, my mother used to need this." She tried not to seem sad about the mention of the she-cat whom had died of green cough early in the winter. She hid her emotions well, shoving them into a corner.

Bluepaw crouched low before the stalk of leaves. "So do I just, kind of chew it off?" She asked, a little curious about the method of it all. She wanted to know, and she wanted to make sure she got this right. After all, if she didn't this important herb could go to waste. Bluepaw knew all too well how important borage could be, even if it was the end of leaf-bare.

(( Hi :3 ))

Sparrowleap stretched and decided to pad around camp for a while. "I'm going to excersise for a while." She had said. Now it was getting a bit tiring, so she lay down in the sun for a while.

Spareowleap pureed. "You sure look tired." She remarked. "Better get some more rest."

( Mallowbreeze is out herb-picking )

Mallowbreeze looked at Bluepaw for a moment and changed her mind. These herbs were enough for now. She picked a small bit of catmint, then put it on the ground. "I think that's good for now. We've got plenty other herbs already because I just went picking yesterday, but this was to see how much you knew." She explained, gathering the herbs she had picked and heading to camp. She flicked her tail for Bluepaw to come.

Once arriving back at the den, she scented Brightpath and pinpointed her location. "Hello." She mewed slightly coldly, staring straight at the warrior. "What is it?" She asked, her tone still icy.

"What happened?" Mallowbreeze asked curiously, wondering if it could be some sort of omen. "Was it scary or mysterious?" She prompted.

"It's a prophecy then..." Mallowbreeze murmured, stars sparkling in her eyes for a brief moment. "Stars and sparks." She repeated, slightly confused. "Any idea what it means? Could you tell me more about who Owlstar was?" The medicine cat asked gently.

"Ah, okay." Mallowbreeze mewed, giving a small nod. She was unsure about whether to talk about the subject futher, but decided not to. "I suppose we'll have to figure it out then." She murmured. "This prophecy is quite confusing."

Mallowbreeze nodded. She gave the warrior some huckleberries. "They help aching muscles." She explained quietly, nodding. She also gave her some goldenrod and elder leaves. "They help too." She added, pushing them forward.
