Ellaira took the cup of tea and held it up in a slight salute to Lymsleia before sipping it. It had a strongly herbal taste, not entirely unpleasant, but certainly not a comforting tea such as comfrey or chamomile. "I'm sure that you have things under control," Ellaira said after a moment. "It just might be, hmm, easier if you're not the only one who knows the 'recipe' for this 'headache' remedy. Grassroots spread widely and it's harder than is worth to pull them up entirely," she added with a smile, hoping that the healer would understand her meaning.
"You ought to sleep more," she said, pursing her lips. "Steady hands come with sleep." Ellaira shrugged and drank some more of the tea, swirling it around slowly in her cup. The warmth of it was pleasant after the chill of the morning, and the astringent and grassy taste would be a good way to wake up in the mornings after a run.
"I'm surprised you haven't met my children, though. Morallina is only three, but like I said... she's a lady. Any sniffle and she is in the healer's office! I wouldn't be entirely surprised to find her taking up healing herself one day. Ten - Vijeraten - is ten now." She smiled slightly at the unintentional wordplay. "He's rough-and-tumble, but I suppose not all scrapes are worth a healer's attention. But what is your specialty - aside from the troubles of women and the making of tea? I was under the impression that you also worked with young children."
