Aurelia
"Oh, wow. That's great!" She grins at Ray's news, that Frey would be helping her friend prepare something that would aid her in the days, weeks, and even months to follow. Nevermind that Safrin hadn't answered - she had done her part in trying to lead Ray to the goddess, the rest had been up to Safrin. But Frey seemed a suitable choice in the endeavors regardless. "A healing item will be invaluable to you - even outside of the war. Do you think you'll really... involve yourself in it, when it happens? If you have a choice, I mean," she knows the question is very pointed, but she's wondering where her friend really stands in all of this. What she might do, when the time came and lines were drawn into the proverbial sand.
Aurelia's eyes widen as Ray begins, and seems to never stop. Clearly it's something she likes to talk about, and Aurelia is happy to try her best to retain the information - even if it comes out all at once. When Ray's finished and seems to realize she's dumped a lot out, Aurelia smiles and shakes her head. "No, no that all makes a lot of sense, I guess I just never really thought about it or did any research into what it takes to be.. well, someone like you," she says, "It seems easier than I thought in some ways but, harder in others... and it sounds like it takes a lot of time and dedication..." She'd always respected and admired Ray before but now she feels much more illuminated to the lengths her friend goes to ensure she doesn't get things wrong - like accidentally poisoning somebody.
"Well... it makes me wonder how anybody found out what all the different plants can do - or not do. Like, if you were to come across a plant you don't know, and it isn't in any of your books," she leans forward a bit more now, leaning her chin on her hand, interest piqued, "how do you figure out if it's good for anything? Or poisonous or.. whatever."
