The Day of Thunder

"I did my job," he said with a shrug. Taking a pull from his pipe, he went over and glanced outside. "Fuck, it's late. Have you two even eaten yet? Who are you, anyway?" He looked to Nao at that. snip Medicine (Wound Treatment)/Intelligence, Void | 10k5+5 ⇒ 54 (TN: 40) Wounds treated (Mastery, 5 rai...

He gives a small smirk as she thanks him, lighting his pipe but not taking a drag yet. "You're welcome. You're a good kid, Yoshitsune-san."

He checks over Shizuku's foot carefully after Nao was finished, then nodded. "She'll be able to walk tomorrow. Tonight she should rest." "Thank you, ah... Sorry, we haven't been introduced," he said. "Enrou. Village healer... obviously." He looked to Ayako. "Thank you, as well, Yoshitsune-san. You'v...

"My prayers will heal anyone who needs it." Nao said. Enrou nodded and finished setting her foot. "If you are willing, please. As much skill as I have," he gave a bitter smirk and headed over to take out a pipe, stuffing something into it. "- the power of the kami will always supersede my abilities...

He didn't miss her waking - healing, if nothing else, was serious business. Still, he only looked up briefly from settling the delicate bones of the foot. "Yoshistune-san, could you please pour this young lady one of the small cups of the same concoction I gave Shizuku-san?"

The wound seals around her empty shoulder socket, sealing the wound. Enrou nods. "Won't have to worry about infection, then."

Then he moved back over to Shizuku. "I need to finish with her foot, unless you feel like pulling out some prayers for a farm girl."

Enrou began the operation, carefully cutting the flesh of the shoulder. The internal muscles of the shoulder, something that should never seen the light of day, are revealed. Arteries slowly leaking blood in the rhythm of Yukara's heart are coldly exposed, the damaged parts removed, and then sealed ...

"I will assist." she nodded. ""I can attempt some magic healing, but let's make sure there aren't any complications." "There's no heartbeat in the arm until here," he said bluntly, pointing to the indicated spot. "The magic will help make a clean heal once I get the dead flesh off her." He picked u...

Ryoshun Nao had been nearby, assisting some of the villagers, when she heard that someone of her clan had been injured. She arrived as quickly as she could.

"What's happened?"

"Good times with amputation," Enrou replied brusquely. He glanced up at her. "Assist or leave."

"Yes. Please light it," he said, setting several slender metal implements into the slotted bowl. It turns out the size is set so they will heat while still being handy for him to take. Why he needed hot implements was unclear just yet to those unfamiliar with medicine. He carefully sharpens his knif...

Enrou shook his head. "No. It was nothing you did. You can't fit a beam in a notch if rot has eaten it through," he replied grimly.

He pointed out the door. "Get the brazier from the other room and bring it over near me, along with the grate-like bowl next to it."

"Not a terrible idea, but you'll probably want me along anyway so you don't, you know...die or anything." Enrou let out a little puff of smoke to punctuate that point. "Spend enough time with the tools of your trade and you develop a few resistances. You don't exactly have that luxury, so...yeah, I'...

"Oh, I have just the thing, I think." Enrou nodded softly, raising his hand to ward off Reo's offering of money. "No need to pay me, just...let me know when you and your compatriots are planning to partake of the brew I draft up. I'm sure seeing that will be payment enough for years to come."

Enrou glanced up. "Stop, hold on." He stepped over once Shizuku's wounds were clean and probed the arm, seeing what was torn. It takes him a little while, until finally he gets a knife that looks wickedly sharp and opens it a little so he can see. "... Shit. This thing is basically hanging on by her...

This time Enrou was silent for even longer than before. The man just said subtlety wasn't his strong suit, but this was something else entirely. "No, samurai-sama, I was hinting at drugs. I'm using drugs. I am higher than Onnotangu's balls during a midwinter chill. Is that blatant enough or do I nee...

Enrou was silent for a moment, his consideration of Reo's questions going from reasonably thoughtful and into slightly awkward. "How do I keep up with it all? Yes, it is a quite daunting series of tasks. One wonders." At this, Enrou took a long pull on his pipe, far longer than might be considered n...

"Put her shoulder into the socket," he instructed. "You're a warrior, I assume you've dealt with dislocated joints before. After that, put a cloth pad over each wound, then wrap it firmly in a bandage. The pad will create extra pressure on the spot." He now had a bowl of bloody wood Shards and was c...

Enrou pointed to one of the concoctions that he had set near her. "Use that salve and one of the cloths to clean the wounds. Each time you rinse it off, reapply the salve to the cloth. It will also help with the bleeding. I'll get to that arm in a moment, butget it back in its socket first." Meanwhi...

Enrou helps Shizuku lay down. "Keep your eyes closed," he instructs Shizuku. Once she's down, he carries the wood block over and puts each leg in the curves. It does double duty blocking her vision and elevating her feet to head off shock. He scowled as he looked over the damage, then leaned forward...

"Of course, no offense taken at all. It shouldn't take me much time at all to concoct four doses." Enrou took a long draw on his pipe, held his breath for a beat, then exhaled slowly. "So, while you're here at the garden, did you have any other questions to pose? I can show you a few of the other pl...
