"I'm sure she's not gonna die" said Kopa, cheering Shadow up.
OOC: Are we talking about the lioness that was found with Badrani who nearly died? :confused:
"No, she will not die!" Roku cried "She....she can't die! We can change her fate, we can save her life! We have to try!"
Roku understood death as a part of life, but deep down she knew there was no pre-determined path. She knew that if the lioness had the will to survive, she would not perish.
Yeah mate :)Quote:

"Don't worry," Roku said, comforting the young cub "We are going to do whatever we can."
Roku remembered the ancient healing taught to her in her homeland. She knew now was the time to use that knowledge
"Wait here," she told the others, as she ran off to the forest to gather some herbs and roots. She had to do something.
Shadow did bearly lisen he just keep on pushing his bohf paws on the lionesses....chaching place a little now and then
Roku looked among the plants, trying to determine any that looked similar to ones in her memory. African plants were very different, but to her amazement, there were plants that were almost exactly alike, even scent and taste.
"This should work...." Roku pondered as she examined the large leaves and roots of the plants she had gathered. She knew the plants would help to heal wounds, prevent infection, and to stop bleeding. Roku gathered the plants she needed, and carried them swiftly to Pride Rock.
"Do not forget the words of comfort young ones, for those heal more than any medicine."
The wise old traveller said.
"Shadow started stop crying in hering this words....."Quote:

he then thinked a but that the lionesses might not think so higly of her self if she hade a panter cub crying for her
"Shadow looked at the traveller whit tears slowly faiting away but still rining a few.....
"who are you ?"
he asked sniffing
"Just an old traveller who has been granted sanctuary here for a time"
"oh...whats your name ?"
Shadow said as he wipe his last tear away
"I don't have a name anymore, it is a long story. But they just call me the traveller."
"You are very wise" Roku said, looking at the traveller
"You have seen much in you long life. Would you help me with these herbs? I know they will help, for the elders in my homeland taught me of their healing powers."
"You have no name?" asked Roku with interest "I suppose it must be a long story."
Roku looked very thoughtful, and spoke again.
"In the land I come from, the elders had no names, either. We all called them by the same name, 'Wise One' or 'Grandmother' or 'Grandfather'. They were very wise, just as you are."
Roku went to the lioness and began to cover her wounds with the medicine.
"Please recover...." Roku prayed, a tear running down her cheek "If this bleeding doesn't stop....." Roku trailed off. She did not want to think about what would happen after that.
" Interesting..., but where do u come from?" Kopa said to the traveller.
(btw Zeal II I like the pic in your sign :P)
Miliski walked over ith her two cubs in her mouth. She put them down to suckle. "Yeah, were do you come from?" she asked as both cubs suckled hungrily.
"I came from a distant land to the south of here. It has taken many lunars to get here. As for these herbs, remember that too much can be lethal, and not enough ineffective. The key is in the dosage of each, one for pain, one to give strength and the last to heal."
The traveller began to demonstrate the technique, carefully crushing some of the plants and herbs together with his paw.
"Rub some of this in the wounds, carefully and slowly so as not to cause her pain. This will thicken the blood around the wound, and it will flow slower."
"Are there any old kills, with spoiled meat around here? It may sound strange, but it can help to heal her." The traveller asked.
Miliski ran round the back of the cave and returned dragging the carcass of her last kill behind her. "Here i killed it yesterday." she smiled placing it at his feet. she smiled with affection at the traveller.
"OOC"
ok i just want to know how old are the lions and lionesses here ?
OOC: Well, Namabi is 22 in human years. Not sure about lion years and Katai is around the same age.
=)
Miliski smiled and nudged the meat towards the traveller.
OCC: how old is Miliski? and the rest under control of Black Gem
"Allright, here is what you do. Take out a tiny portion of spoiled meat, find a part that is particularly... disgusting. And place it in the wounds. There are tiny insects in the meat that eat only DEAD flesh. They will clean her wounds of infection. This is all that we can do for her now, it is up to Death whether or not to claim her."
The traveller shuddered at having to do this, but if it would help, he must.
OOC: The traveller is far older than he appears, I will tell more about his age another time. He appears about 45 in 'human' years though, with many scars.
OCC- Kopa is near 4-5 human years
she was an adesolent and the cubs are one month now. i changed it so it is okay.
"Yeah," replied Roku "Herbs are like that. Something deadly can also be life saving."
Roku watched in amazement as death became the essence of life.
Roku looked at the traveller intently
"So many scars..." she said "I have my share of them as well...."
"Indeed? What happened to give you so many?" The traveller asked, sensing a kindred spirit.
Miliski smiled and licked the traveller. she went to lick him twice. as her tounge reached halfway up his ear she stopped and looked away blushing.
OOC: I think so. :confused:Quote:

The traveller was not blind to Miliski's affections of course, but he had to remain alone.
"I have sworn my oath until the day I can speak my name again." The traveller reminded himself.
Shadow looked after Miliski as she liked the travlerQuote:

"how cute..."
he thougt for him self
Katai opens his eyes and stands up feeling that his paw is a bit better.
Katai attempts to walk on his injured paw, he still as to limp a bit but he can walk.
"These insects eat only dead flesh, not that of the living... this is why they clean out infection. Though herbs are safer... she is wounded so extensively I doubt herbs will be enough."
"What? when is that day? what oath? oh, tell us what you mean. you are very mesterious." she smiled with surpise.
"My story is long, and may bore. So I will say only this, I am searching for someone, and when I find him, scores will be settled."
