"Treepaw, your eyes are red. Stand here while I go get some celandine." Ivymist said as she walked over to her pile of herbs and picked out the celandine leaves. "Eat." She ordered Treepaw. Treepaw ate the leaves without questioning, then started coughing so hard he fell. Oh great. Ivymist thought, I don't want another cat like Endlessheart.
Ivymist then felt Treepaw's head. "Well, you have a fever. Lay down in that nest next to Endlessheart's." she said as she walked over to her stores. "Endlessheart, what herb should I use?" she asked.
"Feverfew. It will help with both the cough and the fever." Endlessheart answered. "Very good. Now, which of these plants is feverfew?" Ivymist asked. "That one." Endlessheart said, pointing to a plant with a white flower and yellow center, with his tail.
"Good. Now Treepaw, eat this." she said, pushing the herb towards Treepaw, who gobbled up the herb. "Good. Now, both of you can rest now." Ivymist said as she started to sort her herb supply.
When she was done, she curled up in her nest and watched Endlessheart and Treepaw sleep. I just hope they realize their destiny. she thought with a sigh.
