It did not appear that Anu had been hurt or become offended by her harsh and brash words, and for that at least Cambria was thankful. She would have felt awful if she had wounded the elder fey's feelings. She did not understand what it was to be a mother and so could not fathom how Alder's departure affected the woman. The Marino girl was in no position to judge and was not in the habit of doing so. She only wanted to have Anu regain her health and not become worse. It made her shudder to even imagine what would happen to Crimson Dreams if she became seriously ill, or worse. It was a dystopian future that her mind immediately recoiled from. That could not happen. She could not let it.

Anu's words were kind, but the Medicus could not help but feel useless when she could not make her little sister recover from her fall. It helped, in some strange way, that Amata could not either; at least it was not just her own failing. Still, she would have gladly traded failure on both their parts for success for either of them for the alternative was so much more horrible. Maybe she was able to do more than just anyone, but, "It hasn't been enough though." Her tone was defeatist and tears stung at the corners of her sea green eyes. What she was able to accomplish now was little more than nothing, how was that of any use?

The Praetor's soft praise of the tea was nice, and made a smile tug just momentarily at her lips. However, as a healer, she could see the signs that Anu was once again feeling less like herself. "Do you feel like you could sleep? It would be good for you to. I can go find you a blanket." Now that her medicine was imbibed it would be best for the woman to rest.
