[center][h2][color=F0E68C]Asteria[/color][/h2][/center][hr][hr] The Worker finally died, but now humans – two of them, by the sounds of it – were approaching. [color=F0E68C][i]Damn. Always all the misfortune...Consequences, consequences.[/i][/color] Even if Ed and Mother rat were in no state for it, Asteria would suggest relocating if it weren’t for that. As it was, she’d prioritize healing Mother rat. [color=F0E68C]“Yes, I’ve heard,”[/color] she replied distractedly to Ed in a whisper. Asteria ushered mother rat into the dug out hole, then stuffed all their items next to her; the jar, hatchet, Bloodinglfy stinger, the last healing herb, the left-over Medicinal salve on the stone, and even the other things Ed had on him. [color=F0E68C]“I hope you don’t mind,”[/color] she muttered. [color=F0E68C]“Wouldn’t want them looting you if they find you…On that note, I’m going to try and find some Nullven. It’s part of the recipe for Antidotal salve. Just in case something happens, this is the recipe,”[/color] she swiftly, accurately, and in a hushed tone recounted to Ed the ingredients and the method for making it, all the while keeping an ear out for the approaching humans. [color=F0E68C]“And if something happens on your end, give a shout, and I’ll come running,”[/color] she ended with that instruction. Then, wary of where the humans were, she sneaked out into the field, keeping down, her steps silent, her senses fully alert. She used her Mana Sense, focusing on the burning sensation she remembered to be indicative of the Nullven. She also sharpened her eyesight, on the look-out for Nullven’s purple petals. She remained sneaking, but was of a mind that if the humans did see them, she’d lure them away from Ed and Mother rat with a squeak or two. Actually, if she happened to hear the humans going to where she knew her companions were, she’d imitate some sort of a growl or something.
