"Two Kreeshone came here once and brought back to our lands a sick... The only thing to make it better took away our ability to have children. I want to find a way to have it not be this way, not for me but for all of my people. Perhaps magic," Amarth said with a sigh.
It was hard to believe her parents had died and left her behind. She thought of all the families that were in shambles because of the disease. How long would the Kreeshone live if they couldn't bear children?

"Wow Amarth I am so sorry. I personally have chosen not to bear children but to not have that choice must be pretty horrible. Maybe someone will be able to find some cure. How long has this plagued your people?", she was now worried about the Kreeshone, if they could not reproduce then what kept them from dieing out completely?

"Years," Amarth whispered. "Years and years. The sick is controlled, but the herb we used makes us not able. Some of our people came here in hopes of finding the cure. I am not sure if I want to have children, but I want to know that I can choose... so many want to, but are not able; I feel sorry for them."
Turning away from the window, Amarth sat down on her bed, her wings held out again because her shoulders still hurt. She pulled back her long hair and ran her fingers through it, reveling in it's silkiness, not knowing what else to say.

Aranel had remained silent, since the Rider and the Kreeshone were speaking. Aranel found herself wondering just how much the two of them had lived through in their lifetimes. She knew that her nineteen years were barely as a single year for those who had seen many more winters than she ever would.
When the conversation turned to children, Aranel grew saddened thinking of the parents she never had the chance to know. With a heavy heart, she continued to listen to Tijia and Amarth.
Just as a short silence came over the room, Aranel remembered something she had learned a long while ago. "Amarth, do you know what was in the cure for the sickness? I don't know much about healing, but I know that the easiest way to heal someone who had eaten something posionous was to find herbs that would counteract the poison, cancel it out. I'm not sure if it would work, but perhaps if we could find things that would counter the medicine in the cure, since you are all already healed, then we could find a way to preserve your race..."
Aranel trailed off into silence, wondering what the others thought.

Tijia let the wind play with her curls a moment longer before turning t the two other woman. Amarth was sitting on the bed again. When Aranel started talking about herbs Tijia listened hard. "I know a good bit about herbs from carving them and curing the wood. I suppose if you found the right one it would counteract the other herb but then it wouldn't help the sickness. What are the symptoms of the sickness? What do you call it?"

OOC- Tijia, I think the sickness has already been cured, but the 'no children' thing is an after effect of the cure... I think. So, they shouldn't still be in any danger from the sickness... I don't think...
*edit* Now I'm not too sure... I suppose we would have to ask Kono about that...
OOC2- Do either of y'all know what time it is in the rp?

OOC: Not sure what time it is... I know we started this off rather later at night, so it's probably middle of the night right now.
OOC2: They didn't really describe the sickness or the herb that healed it. So I'm not sure. *Shrug* I guess we can do whatever we want because this is a Practice RP lol.
IC: Amarth thought for a little bit. She remembered being given the herb, but not much else.
"I do not recall many things about the herb. I will try to remember... perhaps if I asked an older Kreeshone, they would recall more," she finally replied. She shook her head, wishing she could remember more about the herb that cured her kind.
Amarth lay down on her stomach, since she couldn't really lay down on her wings. "I am still awake... I just want to listen," Amarth said as she stifled a yawn. Her wings fell softly against her back, like a built-in blanket. She fought sleep as she listened to the other two talk.

OCC:Yeah but if the cure is take away then can't they just get sick again? Ahh who knows! We should ask an admin about it
IC: Tijia glanced at Amarth as she closed her eyes. "Aranel what do you know about the sickness? Maybe if we piece together our knowledge we can learn from eachother..." Tijia suddenly stopped and laughed. "Look at me! Yall have really done it. Now I'm going to make myself find a cure. You two have me hooked!" She laughed again and looked at the other two wondering what they would say next.

OOC- *look of shock, then points to self* Uh, admin here... technically. Lol. And in any case I asked Kono. The cure stopped the disease. They only took the cure once, and the disease is already gone... besides Amarth and I are working on something for that. Lol.
IC- Aranel listened to Tijia's question, then replied, "I don't know much of anything about the sickness... All I know is that the herb used for the cure was something local to the Kreeshone lands, and that after the Kreeshone took it, the sickness went away..."
She shrugged in apology for not being able to offer more help, then she added, "That is a good thing. Between the three of us we could probably find a way to find a cure... for the cure..." On saying that, she laughed a bit at how odd that sounded.

OOC- We should show Tijia what we have when we're totally done with it lol.
IC- Amarth let out a little laugh that was high-pitched and rather little girl sounding. She was embarrassed, but still smiling. "A cure for the cure..." she whispered. "I like that... I want a cure for the cure Aranel."
"You two are... you are very good. Very good for helping my people. I remember the smell..." she said, her voice trailing off as she tried to think harder, back to when she took the cure.
OOC2- She remembers the smell of the first cure vaguely but she'd have to smell it again to remember it. *Shrug* Lol.

OCC: Wow I completely forgot you were just another person for a while there
IC:"Well you know what they say, two heads are better than one. And I can imagine three heads are better than two!",she said with a chuckle. "Can you remember anything that could help us find the cure for the cure?"
OCC2: Sorry late post

OOC- It's cool, we're doing pretty well in here, can't wait to be allowed into the other places lol.
IC- Amarth nodded. "The smell... it was strong smell," she said, her Common a little broken as she began to doze. She tucked her legs under her and her hands lay under her head as she tried to stay awake. Her black wings tucked in tighter, hiding almost her whole body with how big they were.
"Strong smell... was it red? It was... it was red... think," Amarth said, her voice growing softer. She wanted so bad to stay in the conversation!

OOC- That's fine... if there is any way you could re-enter, you could try I guess. Wait! I have an idea!!
IC- Amarth got out of her bed so she could stay awake a little longer. Traveling over to the open window, she spotten Leiss down below and cried out in joy.
"Leiss! Please join us!" She yelled down to the girl. She went downstairs to meet her, ordering many cups of coffee for all of them, which were promptly brought up to the room.
