"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.
