She heard the doubt and nodded softly. R'ana listened and at his last words asked, "Is it Ronarth deciding, or someone else?"
She could have slapped herself for that! For a moment she nearly did, and looked down. "Some tried to help early on. When all this began. It's why it took so long to get his wounds treated. Nirinath chased them away, tried to tell him they wanted to hurt him."
She paused then and offered, "Tomorrow, Shanith will hunt. If you like, she can haul a herdbeast or two to him...and after he eats, I can try to help with his hide. I have something I used on Shanith to spot clean her hide without soap and water, and should be able to clean and oil the worst spots. I would try now, but want you awake to reassure him. You both deserve better."
R'ana looked at him then, wanting to do it now, but knowing he was probably running low on the strength to stay awake. Ronarth would react best to this with his rider reassuring him through this. Shanith had let other touch her to care for her reluctantly and even then, it had been a damn few.
