Ariel glanced to Fendros, then back to Ahnasha. "I see, I see. Y-yes, massaging does help, but like I said, it's more for inflammation." Ariel dipped her head and gestured to Ahnasha's ankles, "After a while, the extra weight may irritate your joints and cause a sharper pain. Normally at the end of a day spent on your feet, walking around, it can affect your ankles, which is very common. That's where the salve comes in." She smiled reassuringly, "But, massaging the salve in may help it to work."

Fendros kept quiet as Ariel explained, occasionally drinking from the mug in his hand. He knew that massages weren't a cure-all for bodily pains, as Ariel had said, but at least now they would be able to make the remedy last until before the symptoms she described began to kick in.

"As for giving a recipe to Sabine," Ariel continued, her look turning a little less sure, "the ingredients are not very common outside of certain climates, so you would have to buy them if you weren't heading to where they grow, and it might be a little pricey. Nevertheless, I will scribe a recipe in case. Would that be alright, sister?" She looked to Sabine. Sabine looked back at Ariel and nodded, no sign of protest in her expression.

On the other side of the campfire, Janius was finally able to take his eyes off the skeleton as it walked further away. "Good, that thing was giving me chills," he said, going back to his drink. Lorag's comment was amusing however. "Now I see why necromancers do it, they'd never have to lift a finger again," Janius said with his half-smile.

"So, Meesei, Ariel, what can we expect from the coven? Is it very fortified?" Fendros was the next to ask, still curious about the happenings of the scouting run.

"It hasn't changed an awful lot since the last time I was there, so we don't have to work on just what we found tonight, but we didn't discuss a plan yet either," Ariel answered looking over to Meesei, "I think I'll let Meesei answer that, she would probably know how to approach it better from a lycan's perspective than I do." She hesitated, brushing some hair away from her face nervously. Ariel wasn't exactly a general when it came to assaulting a fort.
