[center][h1][color=tomato]Nylah[/color][/h1][/center] [hr] Talk about getting bailed out. Hard. Not that Lissa's surprise shock at the hug wasn't amusing either. Yet as the ratmen left, it seemed the three of them would be fine for the moment being at least. At least. Seemed the Yaga and the Krysa truly were not on the best of terms in this situation either, at least in some capacity or another. Would that be helpful? Potentially. Or not. Truthu be told she had no idea of the Yaga's intent in saving them, whether it was a shallow jab at the ratmen or if it was something more. All she knew for sure was that she was glad they weren't being dragged off to some other place to be questioned or the like. Indeed, she'd noticed the glare and state Lissa had given her, a not very comfortable one to be sure, and after it had frankly felt more willing to go along with her and Eirhild to leave in this case if the matter was pressed any further. Then their saviors had arrived as quickly as anything, before the smaller one had then left after it all was said and done in what felt like the blink of an eye. Taking in Lissa's glance, however, Nylah simply followed along with the others without another word. Not that, er, it would perhaps help anything at all to do so. In that vein she was content to just walk along and follow. But otherwise it was odd how the other one still with them, the same as had been in the tree, seemed to stare at Lissa though. Odder still was the smaller girl's exclamation both pointing it out more obviously and calling Lissa the 'hollow one'. Eh? [quote=???]"...you guys want to crash at my place for a bit?"[/quote] [quote=Totally A Real Human]“Eh, well, lacking better options, sure. Do you… mind explaining what that was all about, though? We appreciate that bit of help, though. Thanks.”[/quote] [color=tomato]"I-I agree, especially as we've nowhere else to go. I also sincerely wish to thank you for the help you provided to us back there as well...though o-on that note..s-sorry about back there..."[/color] She'd tried to do her best, or at least all she knew of how to try to cover for things. Fear of a potential sudden battle if they simply blew things off had come to mind, and, well, she'd acted on her instincts after that point. Even so it seemed she had been the only one to take such a route, it felt like, and whilst it had been frustrating on her end she could more than imagine it had been for the others from their perspective as well. And just imagining that was...somewhat anxiety inducing. Not as much as getting chased by a giant Chameleon on a stretcher made of light magic as it zoomed over the snow at top speeds, but still anxiety inducing. Still, she didn't say anything else as of yet. Couldn't even meet the eyes of the others for the moment being at that. In her mind, it was better to listen to one of their saviors, especially if she answered Lissa's question about what happened back there as well. As it were, that question happened to touch on something Nylah was growing ever more curious about by the moment. The mention of the underworld goddess, Rifelshka it seemed, did pique Nylah's mind and curiosity most poignantly...epecially due to the effect the mention of 'appeasement rituals' seemed to visibly have on the situation. It had been enough to dismiss the ratmen altogether! It was palpable to her, almost, as if angering the Underworld Goddess somehow was a very bad idea. Not that angering any deities was probably ever a good idea ever, er, but in particular this seemed to be pretty notable. It also felt at least reminiscent of those back home not trying to anger the Kyrinth. And beyond that, why was that other girl seemingly able to pop in as she did to assist? Was she tied to those mentioned 'appeasement rituals' or the like? Was she someone important here among the Yaga? [@Rune_Alchemist][@Click This] [hider=Personal Info Hider For Nylah] -[b]Herbs/Herbalism Knowledge[/b]: ***Kyr Reed acted as a sort of coagulant as well as sedative. Made people calmer…not particularly useful for treating frostbite on its own, but it was useful for staunching bleeding or injuries. Could be crushed into a paste with a variety of other things to achieve various effects. Wind-Leaf acted as more of a stimulant. When properly mixed with Kyr Reed it made salves and healing poultices good for bolstering the immune system and promoting natural healing. Coral Moss and Slug mucus were a bit harder to find, since the slugs only could be found in shallow water during the day, with Coral Moss being found in damp sea caves off the coast near the Goddess Spear. Slug Mucus was good for making topical salves for alleviating pain, while Coral Moss, when exposed to certain other substances actually heated itself to temperatures good for gentle rewarming of frost-bitten areas. ***Making anesthetics and preparing healing potions and salves. [quote]It’d be easy enough to prepare both of those things especially with the things she had on hand. Fresh water for a base, crush the ingredients, then boil it to a broth. Simple enough, they didn’t have time to refine it. The Salves could be made by taking the same ingredients and crushing them into a paste without the water. Better for topical use on flesh wounds.[/quote] *** *** [hider=Nylah Skills] -[color=tomato]{Enthralling Dust}[/color] (Racial): Mothraki produce a potent pollen like dust upon their wings. Merely by existing they spread this where they go, though it's mostly harmless if not inhaled in large quantities. Causes hallucinations and dulls one's senses. As one may expect, people tend to frown upon this sort of thing. -[color=tomato]{Journeyman Light Magic}[/color]: A magic encompassing pure light and illumination, ranging from harmless orbs to light up one’s path all the way up to rays/beams of light as attacks to even light barriers and other light constructs such as swords and spears and shields and so forth. A versatile magic that does not call upon the fire of the sun, but does have its myriad uses and capabilities. -[color=tomato]{Novice Herbalist}[/color]: Non-magical practices of a healer, ranging from identifying or figuring out the use of new herbs and recognizing familiar ones, to making things like certain poultices and healing-based alchemy/potion-making, to how to handle wounds/injuries and such using these things. [/hider] [hider=Nylah Inventory] -[color=tomato]{Herbalist's Bag}[/color]: A simple leather bag with a well-built shoulder strap, that is filled with a good number of many types of herbs, a good amount of bandages, and finally tools to make tonics, poultices, and potions alongside a scare few pre-prepared ones that are within the bag itself. She usually wears it around most of the time. (EDIT: Has refilled her supplies, with three total healing pots remaining now. Also now has four vials of baby-chameleon-thing poison.) -[color=tomato]{Small Knife}[/color]: A gift from her mother, made with a smoothed-out bone handle and treated with certain oils, mainly used to help cut things like vines and plants when out collecting herbs and so forth. Also a very niche emergency self-defense tool. -[color=tomato]{Food}[/color]: A small pouch sitting on her opposite hip that contains a few strips of preserved game meat and a few dried edible herbs from the local area. Not much in amount, since it was meant to be snacks for heading into the woods to gather herbs before 'that' happened. -[color=tomato]{Wristband}[/color]: A simple little bracelet made of pretty stones dyed in various colors, carefully having had a hole made through each, sitting on a band made of twisted and treated leather strips. Worn on her left wrist and given as a gift to her by her mother. How long it took to acquire or even make is unknown. -[color=tomato]{Cuteness}[/color]: She is a definitely cute moth girl. This is inherent to her existence. Yes. [/hider] [/hider]
