Callahan had gone off once again to the meadow—which had quickly become his preferred place to be—to begin his searches for herbs. While most of prior knowledge of herbs and their medicinal uses applied to people, he figured he could test them on himself to learn their uses. Not oleander of course, unless he wanted to die. Though, the knowledge of the poison could come in handy in the future.
Callahan had slowed his gait as he came to the riverbank. Wild mint sprouted along the mud, and Cal made a mental note on their location before continuing on. What he was truly looking for were the violet snowdrops he knew grew in places like this. Green enough for them to not wither under the frost, but cold enough that they won't wilt. They were as rare as wintergreen berries, but Cal had hope he'd be able to find them in his valley.
The large man walked towards the nearby treeline to search along the bases of the pines for the rare red berries. He knew wintergreen berries could be used to make medicines palatable, especially with some of the herbs he'd used in the past. It helped get Reed to take his medications when he was younger, and figured it'd be useful should children be a part of the gang.
“Damned plant.” Cal grumbled as he found a small bush, that was empty. Judging from the marks on the leaves, it looked like the resident pronghorns had decided to make it their nightly dessert. With a huff, the man began to travel closer to the snow-capped mountains in hopes of finding some up there.
