Challenge #04843-M094: Healer's Helper

Healing halls across the land hear of a miracle wine that allows healers to see broken bones and other internal injuries so they can treat them. While some lands, mainly those of greedy rulers who think such wonders should ONLY be for the nobility, forbid their healing halls to have it, most refuse such orders and beg Wraithvine to help them set up deliveries. This will greatly aid them in their work. Just like the invention of the vermin-repelling bands did.

(Can't find the prompt, but Wraithvine helped an inventor test a special band that repelled all fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, and all other vermin that plagues travelers, esp. near swamps.) -- Anon Guest

[AN: I can't find it either, Nonny. I've tried three different ways for quite a bit of time. I leave it to those with better memories or more time on their hands]

It's the little things that revolutionise the art of healing. A spell where the material component involved a needle made of ivory. A simple band worn on the wrist that repelled verminous insects. They were immense help to hospices and healer's wards. Just like constant cleaning helped keep pestilence from the sickbeds.

Now there were whispers of a new advancement. A special vintage that could render the body clear enough to literally see what the problem was. Assuming the problem could be visible to the naked eye in the first place.

Adventurers were sent off to find where it was made, and only where it was made. The biggest trouble was finding the kinds of adventurers who avoided becoming murder hobos.

Trusting Adventurers to order wine for them was a step too far. They were more likely to drink it and then misuse it.

Challenge #04554-L170: Seed of Life

They locate the Hartsoke plant, so insanely few and far between they are that it was nearly her end to find it. But the guardian had to be certain that this was need and not want. That this was her own choice in truth, not force, for her sake and her life.

Challenge #03425-I137: Explosive War Prevention

Please tell me, father, why we keep going to war? It never works, and all that happens is we lose the ones we love most. -- Anon Guest

"That's the trick of it, my lad," said King Gerhardt. "They also lose the ones they love the most. Make them pay for killing ours, eh? Balance the scales a bit. We must remember the pain they caused us so that we can claim our vengeance."

Prince Ethelbert frowned at the concept as he

Challenge #03240-H331: Not As Expected

Hey, can we have a story of Healer Varicelle testing Wraithvine and the others, and maybe of teaching them? This sounds like a REALLY neat story arc of seeing Wraithvine getting an education instead of educating others for a change!

Heh, by the looks of it, you look like you really wanted to go longer than what you put for this story, maybe several pages worth! :-D

It could heal any illness, any injury, and, in its concentrated form, even reverse
