She walked through to the main room of the healers suite and met Aragorn slumped in a chair as she'd expected. He looked weary and weak, not in any condition to fight and she meant to tell him just that.

"Aryante, i need your advice."

And he did. Even if the healer said exactly what he had refused to hear before, he might just have to take it.

"Can I win? I need to be sure, i just dont want to look foolish and back down."

"No. Elessar, you are weak and not fit to fight. Trust me, your country will respect you more for backing down than for dying. Adead king is no good for anyone"

He sat, disappointed in the armchair by the fire. He knew Aryante was right, her elvish wisdom and human strength told him that. Making his excuses, Aragorn made to leave.

"Elessar"

Aryante held out a purple flower, of elvish beauty and elegance. An aara loote, 'dawn flower'

"Take this, it will help you"

She turned and was gone.
