Hmm...let's see. Marigold over here, thyme over there. Mouse bile...oh, ew, mouse bile! Let's put that in the farthest corner...
All these thoughts were spinning in Lullabypaw's head as she sorted out all the different herbs. The mixture of smells wasn't helping, either. She still had to master the names of the different herbs, but thankfully she knew most of this batch. Fawnspots and she had gone around the territory, looking to restock their herb supply before the growing season ended. They were lucky, and had found a generous supply that would probably last them two or three moons. She had no idea where Fawnspots was. Probably going out to find more herbs.
The thought of Fawnspots going out sent a small shiver down her spine. On her last outing she noticed that there were a lot of Nightshade plants growing. An unusually large amount. Nightshade plants were poisonous and not to be fooled around with. They also looked a lot like certain other herbs that had great healing properties. Fawnspots was probably experienced enough to tell the difference, but what if a warrior or apprentice--or even a kit--stumbled upon one and decided to bring it to the medicine cat den...or even eat it? Their stock of snakeroot was getting low, too. It either wasn't the season for the poison countering root, or maybe they weren't digging low enough to find it.
ooc| Teehee, I think Lullabypaw is getting too nervously paranoid for her own good xD
