She slips silently over. "Crissie, thank you. You look tired. Why don't you go take a rest? Everyone else, if you don't absolutely have to be here, please give Evelene some room. She needs to be able to breathe, and with this many people..." Her voice is soft, yet commanding. She sits down next to the injured rider, and examines her hand. "I see..." While grabbing several herbs out of her bag, she explains, softly, what she is doing. "Thread scores, if left unattended to for even short periods of time, can easily become infected because of the nature of the wounds. This rider– Evelene, am I correct?– her hand became severely infected. The infection spread up internally along her arm, and the taxation of attempting to fight it off was too much for her immune system and her mind, thus she collapsed. She will be alright– if she is treated correctly, and soon." She pulls out a small pounch, and takes out a handful of dry leaves. She begins grinding them into a powder, and says, again softly, "This is why I was gone. I was in the jungles of the Southern Continent, investigating the medicinal properties of willowbrush. It turns out it is an extremely effective oral painkiller. As pain is largely the cause of Evelene's illness, it will be highly beneficient." Pouring the powder into a shallow cup of warm water, she holds it to Evelene's mouth. "Please drink this, dear. It will help with the pain. Then we can work on fixing you up. I understand that you are weak, but you must drink this on your own, or it could go down into your lungs. Go ahead and take your time about it." Her voice is calm and soothing, but her forehead is wrinkled in worry. She knows Evelene will be alright, but the collapse and near coma could have caused paralysis, along with several other awkward permanent injuries... But she would deal with that when the time came, if need be. Evelene was a strong young woman, and she should pull through just fine.
