I’d examined all of his wounds after I’d peeled off the bandages, and had been relieved to see new, pink skin forming over his cuts. Nana Baspy had added in what she’d called “healing herbs” to our bathtub, insisting that they’d help Ares recover from his injuries. Rosemary and lavender and cinnamon and fenugreek and chamomile – she’d looked like a witch stirring up a potion as she’d fussed over our bath. Grandpa Attie had had to pull her away, reminding her that they’d lingered here too long already – but not before she’d managed to spill a mug of coffee first down herself, and then Ares, and then, somehow, over Grandpa Attie’s arm as well.

I also thought I heard Almira and her mother arguing in low voices. After a few minutes, everything was ready. We all sat in a circle. I looked around, waiting for someone else to speak, but no one did. Their eyes were all on Almira. “We are here for one reason,” she began, her tone serious. “To find answers together. Last night, we were able to reach one of our ancient healers. That helped us complete the herbs used to treat the human plague.” She paused before continuing. “Tonight, we will drift to find Orchal, the healer who created the first cure for nerve injuries. He helped many soldiers walk again.”

Oliva said, she walked to a shelf and pulled down an old scroll, placing it on the table in front of me. Its edges were frayed, but the writing was still visible and there were drawings of wolf anatomy. Then I noticed notes written in an ancient script. “This is old knowledge,” she said. “Some of these remedies can’t be found anywhere round this world, but they are kept here.” I leaned closer, tracing a finger along the fad I leaned closer, tracing a finger along a diagram of a wolf’s spine, a recipe beside it for a poultice made of mugwort, willow bark, and elder sap.

Riven I'd felt uncomfortable about the ritual for days, though I couldn't explain why. It started with the serum. Sarah had been clear—feverfew, willow bark, lavender. Basic headache relief. Nothing that could heal wounds instantly. Yet Angie's injury had closed in moments. Lira said she'd mixed it with something. An old remedy from the orphanage. I believed her. Mostly. But something about it didn't sit right.

She looked ready to faint. No, no, no! I couldn't let anything happen to her! Evelyn's smirk deepened as the livestream comments filled with cheers and praise. "Since you claim my products ruined your faces, I'll be kind enough to 'fix' them for you." She shot a glance at her employees. "Go get a bucket of concentrated salt water from the back, and bring out those bottles of medicated oil. Let's show our audience a little 'ancient remedy'—fight poison with poison."

Even though he could not understand what David was doing, Nimbus’ condition seemed much better compared to just now after David’s treatment. If they went along with his treatment, it would at least take a few days to reach this result. However, David only took two hours to achieve this. How incredible! “David, what is this called?” Wilfred asked, feeling stunned. “Ancient Traditional Medicine,” David answered. “Ancient Traditional Medicine… Ancient Traditional Medicine…” Wilfred muttered. Suddenly, Wilfred remembered something and asked loudly, “Do you mean the long-lost ancient practice?” “I am not sure. However, I found this in an ancient relic,” David lied.

I whispered, my voice trembling as if the mere sound could shatter the fragile hold on my mind. Judith dropped the small box I was too oblivious to notice on my bed and opened it. In her hand was a book—a collection of ancient remedies. You could tell it was a book that had been passed down from generation to generation. “There’s an old ritual,” she began, “according to my grandmother, it’s a temporary neutralizer derived from blending rare herbs and a meditative chant that has helped others control the coldness and hotness they feel within themselves. Of course, it’s not a perfect cure, but it will at least give you the control you need for the time being. I

Hamlin asked curiously. “I don’t know much either. It’s just a recipe I got from my mentor,” she replied. She had previously let slip to Mr. Hamlin that she possessed knowledge of ancient medicine. He had been asking questions ever since. Apparently, he wanted to understand ancient medicine. However, Amy could only select certain questions to answer. Changing the subject, Mr. Hamlin asked, “How did you cultivate those rare herbs?” “The same way you cultivate ordinary herbs,” she responded vaguely. “What’s their medicinal effect? What are their components?” he continued.

It was a medical text, disguised as a historical relic. I flipped immediately to Section 7.2. The pages were dense, written in old, formal script, but the message was clear: Silver corruption, when mixed with other metals, must be combated with internal heat and cooling agents. The ancient remedy called for rare mountain roots, but the text also listed common substitutions for managing minor, lingering silver sickness. I don't have mountain root. I don't have rare earth magic. I have a camp kitchen. I need blood cleansers, fever breakers, and internal support.
