Lorcan watched silently as the old male eyed up the goldenrod with suspicion before eventually picked it up between his teeth. Quietly the male chewed it and Lorcan could tell from his expression that he was less than pleased with the taste of it. The plant seemed to do its job though as the male become more relaxed and subdued. As the young trainee medic bid his farewell to the elderly stranger, he turned back to see that the man had now settled his head comfortably on his paws and seemed to be drifting off to sleep. Lorcan smiled, contented that the old man was now no longer in as much pain as he had been before after such a traumatic tumble.
As his attention turned back to focus solely on Morganna, happy to leave the old man to snooze in peace, the dark haired woman gestured for him to join her. Making his way briskly to her side, doing his best to hide the limp to his hind leg and the wound which still plagued it, Lorcan moved to stroll by his superior’s side. Morganna’s keen eye spotted his ailment though and as his golden eyes flickered hesitantly to settle on her face, his russet ears fell back against his head ashamedly. He could tell by her voice that she was in no mood for games and Lorcan was still unsure if the woman could be as forgiving as Craw when it came to his meek attitude.
“Askan—” He paused, releasing a deep breath. Why was it that every time something bad happened, that swarthy brute was always somehow involved? “—attacked me, he thought I hurt his pup. S-she was drowning in the river, that one along the edge of the l-lowlands, so I pulled her out. He must’ve seen me standing over her…” He sighed. “H-he just attacked!!” Golden eyes widened as he remembered the horror of the incident. “I tried to tell him, to explain – but, he wouldn’t listen.” Pale brows furrowed, as he diverted his gaze to the ground, feeling his top lip twitch in frustration.
