Isuma heard the footsteps first, raising her head to chirrup a curious greeting at the approaching redhead. Jigano glanced up a moment later, the raven stilling in his gentle hands as he blinked at Sam's sister in surprise and a little caution. They had passed each other briefly by in previous seasons, meeting at the gathering of healers in the Infirmary at Vai's invitation, but they had never really spoken before. He knew her primarily as Sam's sister, a source of more pain than comfort for the timid bookmaker - though that, too, was information months out of date.
Her grin surprised him, though given that they had both offered to volunteer at the Infirmary once upon a time he wasn't surprised at her offer. "Evie?" he confirmed, though he wasn't one to forget a face. "Another pair of hands would help, thank you. Have you ever set a broken wing before?" An innocent question, for though they had met in the healing hall he had been there as a magicless medic, and he only remembered her as being an herbalist and pharmicist.
Not that things couldn't change. Gods least fortunate, but how he knew they could change.
