sweet lily of the hidden valley:

I have healing magic

[He blinks, cloth retreating a few inches so he can peer at the injury, but it doesn't look much different.]

Nothing yet. Sorry, I should have warned you it might sting a little. Are you okay?

[yourdistraction]

[ He looks sincere enough, and Merrill tries to relax again. Yes, he should have warned her! But if he is really a healer, then he might have put some kind of herbal tonic in with the water. She isn't used to stinging as a result, but she doesn't know every herb in Thedas and beyond, so she'll have to trust him. ​]

It surprised me, only. It doesn't hurt!

[ He must think her a child! Only the cuts don't seem to bother her too much, even with blood dribbling from fleshly cleaned wounds.

In the field there isn't time for this kind of care before using healing magic, so she's not really used to it, and feels awkward just sitting here not contributing anything. ]

Do you know of other mages among us?

[bearshermark]

[Relieved, Eleven reapplies the cloth, touching down in careful presses to dab up the bits of blood. How embarrassing it would be if he failed to heal the first person he tries to help. He doesn't have Serena's expert care, but he'd like to think he's somewhat competent.

He hums shortly]

Not yet, I don't think. I suspect at least one other person has a power of some kind, but I don't know what sort it is. Whatever it is, I'm sure he'll use it in our defense if it comes to it.
