"Fair enough." She nodded softly. "Thank you for all of your assitance." She gave another deeper nod of her tawny head as Deorlin walked back out of the crowded inn. She sighed quietly, dissapointed at Deorlin's reply. Perhaps after she had atleast attemptedto help the poor animal she could ask around the inn a bit.
But for now she must concentrate on the horse.
Soon enough, the woman who had taken their rather odd request for the ingredients returned, arms filled with various jars and bottles. "Here you are. Mint, honey, and salt." Sadbh smiled and gave the woman some copper coins to cover the cost.
"Thank you kindly." She slipped the various items into her satchel and brushed nimbly out of the inn, crisp night air tinging her breath milky white. She tilted her face to meet the moon, gently picking her way through the shrubbery and brush. In the darkness, she could see fairly well. She percieved Deorlin bending over a crop of nettles and breezed over to him.
"Thank you again for your help." The shortness of the young woman was elaborated by a nod of the head. "I feel sorry for that horse, as its stuck with me." She gave a half smile in the dark.
