He turned to the herb storage and pulled out some poppy seeds, a sprig of lavender, and comfrey then stopped again at the small spring for a ball of watered moss. He set the poppy seeds in front of her first then chewed the lavender into a fine poultice, adding it to the moss water. ”Eat the poppy seeds. That’ll help with the immediate pain. It doesn’t feel as though there’s any severe damage to the bones or joints. It’s likely a soft injury so it’ll heal only with time. I’ll put this poultice on now which should help bring down the inflammation and take this comfrey lead to wrap on your leg when you finish the patrol. And then you should rest. Stay off the leg until it can hold your weight again without pain. Go back to your Warrior duties slowly at first and back off at any signs of pain but you should be back at it fully in a moon.”

Batflight winced at the touch, chirping her thanks and eating the poppy seeds when they were given to her. Once the poultice was applied she stood up clumsily, dipping her head to the medicine cat.

"Thank you, Elmshadow. I should head off on my patrol now, but I'll definitely keep off it until it's healed," she mewed, feeling a little silly about her earlier anxiety. It hadn't been so bad at all, and she was relieved all she needed was a little rest. She hadn't even needed to eat anything bitter!
