Evvy was sitting on an old but very sturdy table at the front of her father's small shop. She was ripping and cutting up herbs that needed to be dried out and eventually put into jars to be sold. She was running the shop for the most part today because her father was ill with a horrible cough. She sighed as she continued her tedious work, hoping someone would buy something. They were getting low on food and needed the money. She thought about her brother who she hadn't seen in weeks. She figured he was helping the King, or some wealthy Lord to murder someone. With this in her mind, she said a quick little prayer for whoever the unfortunate soul was.

"Hello...?" said Rose, cautiously opening the door. The girl behind the counter looked up as rose walked over to the table she was working at. "Sorry, I know that it's late, but- I feel a bit dizzy and light headed- I was wondering if you had anything..." she broke off as another wave of dizzyness swept over her. She leant on the counter to stop her falling over. She suddenly felt very hot again in the stuffy shop and longed to be outside. "I don't really know what it is that I need...perhaps you could suggest something." Rose looked around the jars and different herbs in the shop, hoping that the girl could find something.

Juniper gasped "Miss are you alright? Let me take you to the back of the shop. I can let you rest there while I bring you something to drink. It'll help you feel better. What are you ill with?" she asked worried for the woman's health.

Rose sat down in the cool back room and felt much better. She looked around, and spoke to the person who had handed her a glass of water. "Thank-you" she said, then fell quiet for a few minutes, sipping the water. She stood up, expecting to feel dizzy- but there was nothing. She seemed to be over the worst of things, she suspected it was coming out of the cold and into the warm libaray that had made her so dizzy. She hoped Kain and Brynna were alright and what they would be thinking and she hoped she hadn't ruined anything. what will they be thinking! she thought to herself, remembering how she had run out without an explanation. She fervently hoped they wouldn't take things the wrong way...
Feeling much better, with the exception of her head aching slightly, she stood up and turned to the girl who had helped her, who was standing close by looking worried. "I'm sorry to have worried you, I honestly don't know what happened..." She turned intending to leave, but then felt bad for wasting the girls time and not actually buying anything...
"Could I buy somthing to cure headaches?" she asked, feeling ignorant that she didn't know the purpose of any of the herbs in the shop.
She waited patiently for the girl to answer, she wanted to get back to Brynna and Kain in the library and wished that she knew what time it was.
