  1. Calling all healers, herbalists, doctors, and medics! Avail yourselves of the healing goods on offer from Serinwë’s Hand, the Company of Healers. From the market stall in Illivira, find all manner of medicinal teas, tonics, and tools for the beginner herbalist or experienced healers who do not have time to make their own. Illivira is located on the shore to the west of Amathine. Take the road west of Amathine, and at the first fork turn right. This path will take one northwards and through a tunnel beneath the mountains towards Illivira. Teas Teas are a gentle herbal remedy which can be used to treat pain and discomfort and assist with healing. For instructions on how to prepare your own tea, consult A Herbalist’s Guide. Powdered cryptus mushroom may be purchased for this purpose. Alternatively, you may pick from three pre-prepared herbal remedies. Tinctures and Tonics Tonics are more concentrated remedies than teas, prepared by boiling herbs for several hours to release their medicinal properties. For more, consult A Herbalist’s Guide. They are not suitable for long-term storage, and should be used soon after purchase. Tinctures, on the other hand, are prepared by using spirits and last for some time. Topical Medicines These medicines should be applied to the skin, not ingested. Healing Kits For your convenience, the healers of Serinwë’s Hand have prepared boxes of medicines and tools both for travel and clinic use. Custom Orders The market stall in Illivira only represents a small number of the herbal remedies available. For custom orders such as travelling herbalist kits or a specific medicine, please contact the Healer on High for Serinwë’s Hand, Illynora Sylvaeri (toffToffee | @meggiebyte). All students of Serinwë’s Hand who show proficiency in healing and herbalism will receive a medicine bag free of charge.

  2. Healers are the ties that bind us. Despite our many differences, every Descendant is vulnerable to sickness or injury. Caring for the injured and ill requires a devoted mind and compassionate heart, and in every nation across the continent there exist those who follow the path of healing, whether they are called doctors, clinicians, medics, healers, or shamans. There are two functions of Serinwë’s Hand. The first is as a company of healers, travelling the continent healing those in need and assisting in times of crisis. The second is as a latticework connecting healers and clinics across nations, sharing knowledge and supplies. One need not be an oathed member of Serinwë’s Hand to participate in the sharing of ideas and wisdom. History "Warriors take up bow and blade against the dangers of this world. Myself, I am armed with elixir and silver scalpel, warding off sickness and injury.” - The Tale of Serinwë, Part II in the Lay of Aegrothond Serinwë's Hand is named for Serinwë, the matriarch of the ancient Almenodrim who was wife to Sylvaen the Everflame. This is because Serinwë's Hand was founded in the year 1700 of the First Age in Aegrothond, Arcas—the stronghold of Almenorean culture ruled by the venerable House Sylvaeri. It began as a company of healers tied to the Institute of Healing in Aegrothond. Admittance into Serinwë’s Hand required completion of the Path of the Healer course. Members would provide healing for those in need, venturing to foreign lands. Many were also healers in Aegrothond’s clinic and teachers in the Institute of Healing, although entrance to Serinwë’s Hand was not limited to Elves or citizens of Aegrothond. When Illynora Sylvaeri—founder of the Institute of Healing and Serinwë’s Hand—departed the mainland in the year 1708 of the First Age, leadership of the Institute passed to Eraami Aureon and later to Medli Oranor. Although the Institute survived, Serinwë’s Hand faded into obscurity. Illynora Sylvaeri and Medli Oranor revived Serinwë’s Hand in Aevos in the 133rd Year of the Second Age. The Institute of Healing survives in spirit in the Illynoran Infirmary in Illivira and in name in the Institute of Healing in Amathine. At the time of writing, the Infirmary is led by Medli Oranor and the Institute of Healing is led by Arle Sirame. Positions Healer on High The leader of Serinwë’s Hand responsible for the overall function of the company. Must be an oathed member. Teacher Experienced healers who organise lessons, host herb scouting expeditions, and spread healing knowledge across the continent. Must be an oathed member. Oathed Healer Healers who have taken the oath of Serinwë’s Hand and dedicated their life to the art of healing. These healers may be called upon in times of crisis and sent where their skills are most needed. Nation Contact An individual who serves as the main point of contact between a certain nation and Serinwë’s Hand. Most often, these individuals are the leader of their national clinic. The nation contact is encouraged to attend occasional healing summits or send a representative in their stead. Savant Healers who are highly knowledgeable in a particular area of expertise. For example: artificial limbs, magic-inflicted injuries, and specific illnesses. These healers may be consulted by Serinwë’s Hand, or they may be full members themselves. Independent Healer Skilled healers who are not an oathed member. These healers are encouraged to share their knowledge with others through Serinwë’s Hand but are not obligated to heed a call for aid. Herbalist — Alchemist Those who are skilled in creating herbal or alchemical medicines and would be willing to supply these to Serinwë’s Hand or to clinics in need. Herb Gatherer Those who collect herbs across the continent and deliver them to where they are most needed. Student Those who wish to learn the noble art of healing, herbalism, or alchemy. Becoming Involved To become a full member of Serinwë’s Hand, one is required to show their skills to the Healer on High and be approved. This may be done through a display of healing ability or through a series of probing questions to ascertain that an applicant’s healing knowledge is at the standard expected of a healer being held out as a representative of Serinwë’s Hand. This healer will then be required to take the oath. Those who would like to become involved with Serinwë’s Hand but not as an oathed member, or who would avail themselves of the free lessons, should contact the Healer on High or any member of Serinwë’s Hand.

  3. Penned by Illynora Sylvaeri on behalf of Serinwë’s Hand in the 143rd Year of the Second Age. The healing methods described in this compendium adhere to traditional Wood Elven practices, including the intonation of prayers to the Aspects. As such, it does not include more modern surgical practices seen in the lands of Man and Dwarf. This compendium is a companion piece to A Herbalist's Guide to Aevos. Where the reader is instructed to apply a particular poultice or medicine, they should direct themselves to the Herbalist’s Guide. Healing Prayer After imbibing Cerridwen’s essence, sacred attunement springwater, speak these words: “O’ Haelun’Taynan, orlle ay’adiln divcerun’ehya, lae heya elillern’tayna lentera hiyluan’ehya y’ameantaynei. nae heya kae’leh taynan illerale, kae’leh wynan’anuh il’sulwaleh, nae’leh ehya orahernan illera. O’ Haelun’lle, y’kae anoh’suliera, kae ay’nae’leh tilrunhaleral mediera adontere, iyul kae orern nae tilruereh, nae’leh ehya lle’saere karin’ento.” “O’ earth Mother, benevolent to the weak and weary, Who spreads the gifts of life and good health over the emerald wilds. You who gifted me my own life, and their life, Pray for my soul and bless my hands with your healing light. O' compassionate Mother, look down upon me, I ask that you help your dutiful servant, so they may continue to serve you and spread your goodness across the land.” Last Rites If a patient follows the teachings of the Aspects and is about to pass on, or has just recently passed on, speak these words: “O' Haelun, y'kae oerneh suliera. ito suliera, iyul nae'leh illern'taynan ethere, Iyul divhiuw ito lae'leh/hae'leh taliiynan, divcerun'ehya ito hae'leh/lae'leh hiylun. Oerneh nae ito hileia lae/hae myumiera, ciwn'ehya uell. O' Maln, y'kae oerneh suliera. ito suliera iyul nae'leh illern'orran ethere, Iyul leyun ito lae'leh/hae'leh iheiuhii, lae'leh/hae'leh ehya taliiynan feta lentera. Oerneh nae ito Sirame lae/hae myumiera, cerun'ehya uell. nae iyl'hiylun, tenna eth, myumierala karinte, lae'ehya/hae'ehya Meracahe narna. taliyna ito nor, taliiyna ito vallei, tur ito malomii. Ahernal ito.” “O' Mother, look upon me now. See here that your gift of life has ended, That his/her heart is still and his/her Spirit weary. May you bring him/her to peace and slumber eternal. O' Father, look upon me now. See here that your gift of the hunt has ended, That his/her voice is silent and his/her blood grows cold. May you bring him/her to honour and strength undying. You have held this Spirit until the end, And he/she now passes into the Balance. Flesh to soil, blood to water, bone to dust. Blessed be.” Flesh Wounds The healer should wear tight sleeves rolled to the elbow. Wash hands in warm water and boil the necessary tools for half an hour prior to the procedure. Embedded Objects Where an object such as a weapon has been embedded in the flesh, this must be removed before the wound is able to heal. Numb the area with blissfoil poultice, being careful to apply this with a cloth or wooden spatula. If the object is beneath the skin, make an incision with a small knife and remove the object. In the case of embedded swords or arrows, soak a cloth with draugr tongue tonic and apply it to the wound. This will soften the skin. Carefully widen the incision around the sword or arrowhead. Remove the object and treat the wound as usual. Diseased Flesh When a wound has become infected, the skin will be red and shiny and the wound is likely to excrete creamy yellow pus. In advanced cases, the flesh may have mummified and become black, grey, red, and leathery. Numb the area with blissfoil poultice. Cut and scrape away the diseased flesh. In the case of infected wounds, make a small incision and drain the wound of pus. Treat the wound as usual. Treating Wounds Apply pressure to the wound with a cloth until it has stopped bleeding. If the cloth becomes soaked through, do not remove; apply more cloth on top. Where the wound is on a limb, elevate the limb to help slow blood flow. Once the wound has stopped bleeding heavily, clean gently with tepid water and gislocinovi tonic. For deep wounds, use hiding moss to pack the wound before stitching. For shallow wounds, apply tippen’s root salve to stem the last of the bleeding. It is recommended to hold a cloth soaked in peppermint oil over one’s nose and mouth to counteract the smell of the tippen's root. For shallow wounds that do not require stitching, mandragora poultice may be applied to assist with healing. Amberiddle sap can be used to seal shallow wounds. Deeper wounds will require stitching with a bone needle and silk thread. For medium to shallow wounds, use a continuous stitch, which refers to using the same piece of thread along the wound and tying it off at the end. For medium to deep wounds, use an interrupted stitch, which refers to cutting and tying each stitch; these stitches are not connected to one another. Continuous stitches are appropriate for long gashes, while interrupted stitches should be used for deep wounds so that the thread does not break. Apply frost vine salve to the wound for topical pain relief. Bind the wound with bandages, changing the bandages regularly. If there are any signs of infection, administer a dose of grobsnopper syrup (taken orally). Serpent’s stalk tonic can be used to reduce fever caused by infection. The patient may also be given mandragora tea to assist with healing and blood lotus stew to regain strength after heavy blood loss. Once the wound has healed, remove the stitches and apply aqua nymph oil to reduce scarring. Broken Bones There are three broad types of bone injuries. Closed fractures, where the bone is broken but has not pierced the skin; open fractures, where the shards of broken bone have pierced through the skin and are exposed; and dislocation, which is not precisely a broken bone but rather where the bone has been knocked from its usual position. Closed Fractures Apply frost vine poultice to the affected area. The patient can also drink atheros tea for pain relief. For clean breaks, manipulate the ends of the fracture to align them to their original position before splinting or binding. Splinting refers to placing a stick along the limb and securing it in place with wrappings. Binding refers to securely wrapping the limb or digit with bandages. Facial injuries — These fractures cannot be set and must be allowed to heal on their own. Shoulder and collarbone — Create a sling with a triangular cloth close to the body. Ribs — These fractures cannot be set and must be allowed to heal on their own. Do not bind the ribs, as this could lead to the bones healing in a malformed position. Arm — Splint. Fingers and toes — Bind to the neighbouring digit. Hip — Splint extending from the lower back to the knee. Knee — Splint from the hip to the ankle. Ankle — Bind securely, using small splints where necessary. Open Fractures Induce unconsciousness with two doses of nightsap syrup. Rinse the wound with tepid water and gislocinovi tonic. Set the bone by manipulating it into its original position. Treat the area as a wound (see above instructions). Dislocations Pulls should always be slow and steady, never abrupt. One will feel the joint slip back into place with a heavy clunk. The patient may be given atheros tea to reduce pain. Shoulder — Lay the patient on their back with the affected arm away from the body. Hold the hand or wrist and slowly, but firmly, pull the arm until the joint falls back into place. Wrap the arm in a sling. Knee — Stand on the patient’s affected side. Lift the leg slightly up and begin to extend it while pushing the kneecap back into place. This movement may need to be repeated several times. Tightly bind the knee for support. Fingers — Remove any rings to prevent injury due to swelling. Extend the finger and push the joints back into place. Splint to the adjacent digit to reduce movement. Burns Burns can range from minor sunburn on the top layer of skin to serious burns which afflict all layers of the skin. In all cases, carefully remove clothing and jewellery from the affected area. Rinse gently with tepid water, careful not to slough off too much of the burnt skin. Minor Burns Minor burns are characterised by red, inflamed skin. Apply aqua nymph & frost vine salve to the area for pain relief and to heal the burn. Apply aquate root & faerie truffle salve for relief from dry, chapped skin as a result of sunburn or other minor burns. Moderate Burns Moderate burns are characterised by redness, inflammation, and blisters. Boil gislocinovi leaves with shredded atheros root. Stitch the leaves together to form bandages. Apply aqua nymph poultice to the burn and bind with the gislocinovi bandages. Replace bandages as necessary. Serious Burns Serious burns are characterised by white, leathery skin. Numb the area with a blissfoil poultice. Cut away the burnt flesh. From the thigh or back, take a skin graft of the required size. This is achieved by using a small knife to cut a square of skin and lifting it carefully from the donor site. Apply the skin graft to the burn site, treating it as a wound. Clean the donor site with gislocinovi tonic and apply tippen’s root to stem bleeding. Treat it as a wound. Intense Cold Wandering in extremely cold areas without the proper clothing or equipment can lead to injuries and maladies. The first is exposure, where one has grown so cold their body ceases to function. The second is frostbite, where intense cold has restricted blood flow to areas of the body, leading the flesh to blacken and die. Exposure should always be treated before frostbite, as heating the limbs can cause cold blood to flow back to the heart, lowering the body temperature and causing death. The same impacts of exposure can also be induced from drinking too much serpent’s stalk tonic. Exposure Move the patient to a warm, dry location. Do not chafe or massage heat into the limbs. Remove any wet clothing and cover in dry blankets, leaving only the face exposed. Place warm, dry towels on the neck and chest. Brew shade leaf tea and assist the patient in drinking in small sips. This will help to calm the stress of their experience and warm them from the inside. The patient can also inhale steam from a bowl of boiling water to heat the airways. Frostbite Warm the skin in tepid water for half an hour. The skin should turn red or purple during this process. The patient can drink atheros tea to help with the pain from the feeling returning to their limbs. Carefully separate fingers and toes once they have thawed. Elevate limbs to prevent swelling. Where the skin has blackened and died, cut away using the instructions for Diseased Flesh in the Flesh Wounds section. If a digit or limb requires amputation, see the Amputations section. Amputations Amputation of a limb should only be used as a last resort where no other healing methods are appropriate. Administer two doses of nightsap syrup to induce unconsciousness. Clean the amputation site with gislocinovi tonic. Cut through the skin with a small knife then, using a larger knife, cut through the muscle. Sever the bone with a bone saw. Seal the wound by stitching the skin closed to form a stump. This should then be treated as one would a wound. Illness Most illnesses require rest above all else, though there are some medicines which can be administered to speed recovery and alleviate symptoms. Blood lotus stew also assists in recovering strength following an illness. Blocked nose — Bitter reed & coltsfoot tea. Sore throat — Flash fruit syrup. Fever — Coltsfoot tea. Serpent’s stalk tonic. Nausea — Bitter reed tea. Headache — Atheros tea. Muscle aches — Massage with diluted frost vine salve. Fatigue — King’s ivy tonic. Cough — Coltsfoot tea. Sleeplessness — Javens tea. Shortness of breath — Coltsfoot syrup.
  4. Penned by Illynora Sylvaeri on behalf of Serinwë’s Hand in the 143rd Year of the Second Age. To harness the natural power of herbs, one must learn how best to prepare them. This guide draws upon traditional Wood Elven practices for preparing herbs and includes practical wisdom on how best to harvest them. The herbs listed are not exhaustive but cover most of the herbs a healer will ever have cause to use. This guide also has a companion piece, The Healer's Compendium. Harvesting Below is a guide on where to find herbs and the part of the plant which holds medicinal properties. After harvesting, herbs can be preserved by bundling and tying with twine, drying the herb in the sun until the moisture is gone, and hanging in a cool, dark space. The herb may then be stored in tightly sealed jars. Alternatively, Cryptus Mushroom may be dried, crushed into a powder, and sprinkled on herbs in order to dry them quickly. Some herbs are particularly dangerous to harvest. Blissfoil pollen can numb the senses when inhaled and the skin when touched. It should always be harvested wearing gloves and with the nose and mouth covered. Mandragora releases spores which can render one paralysed. There are stories of herbalists drowning in shallow water. When harvesting this herb, one should always travel in pairs and cover the nose and mouth. Beard Weed should always be harvested with gloves to prevent unwanted hair growth on the hands. Other herbs are especially delicate. Aqua Nymph must be wholly transplanted to a pot and brought back to the clinic or prepared at the site, for it is extremely delicate. Damage to any part of the plant will render the medicinal bulbs useless. Hiding Moss expands rapidly when exposed to light. One should either harvest it at night and keep it in a lightless container or harvest it under bright light, ensuring that the container is large enough. Otherwise, the container could break when the moss expands. Amberiddle In the branches of trees. Found in the central plains and the pine forest west of Haense. Stems and leaves.

Tippen’s Root Growing in and around carcasses. Found all over the continent. Roots. The flowers are what make this plant smell foul. Raw Herbs Some herbs are best used in their raw state, or with very little preparation. Beardweed Promoting hair growth. Blissfoil Numbing and pain relief. This is an incredibly dangerous herb which can lead to permanent loss of feeling. Blood Lotus Can be made into a soup or stew to help replenish strength, particularly after heavy blood loss. Faerie Truffles Healthy eyes, hair, skin, and nails. Hiding Moss Because of its absorbent nature, this herb is used to pack deep wounds. Oils Dry vast quantities of the herb in the sun until the leaves or petals begin to wilt. Shred the herb into a glass jar and cover with a clear, distilled spirit. Place the lid of the jar on tightly and shake for several minutes. Store in a dark cupboard, shaking three times per day. Repeat until the herb loses colour, which could take up to one week. Strain plant material through a cloth, pouring the liquid into a bowl. Repeat the entire process several times using fresh herbs but the same distilled spirit. Place the jar in a dark cupboard and leave for a few days until separation begins to occur. Freeze the jar in an ice room, a frozen river, or in the ocean under the shade of cliffs in winter. The distilled spirit will not freeze, but the oil will solidify. Skim the solid oil from the top of the jar and place into a dark glass bottle. The dark glass will prevent sunlight from weakening the medicinal properties of the oil. Once the oil has fully melted, it is ready for use. Medicinal Oils Aqua Nymph Scarring, when applied to the skin. Dwarf’s Pumpkin* Staving off fungal infections from inhaled spores, if oil is dropped in hot water and the resulting steam inhaled. Smells strongly of garlic. Other Oils Nightglow Glows faintly, meaning it can be used for invisible ink that is only visible in the dark. Paddfoot May be treated with alchemy into an oil that, when applied to footwear, can muffle sound. Poultices Cut the herb into small pieces. Crush using a mortar and pestle, adding water until a paste is formed. If using dry herbs, add more water. Poultices are to be used fresh and are not suitable for storing for later use. Medicinal Poultices Aqua Nymph Burns. Blissfoil Numbing and pain relief. This is an incredibly dangerous herb which can lead to permanent loss of feeling. Always handle with gloves when grinding into a paste. Coltsfoot* Gout. The leaves and flowers of this plant should be used, as the roots are toxic. Frost Vine Topical pain relief. Mandragora Aiding in the body’s natural regeneration, though when applied unnecessarily can lead to painful warts. Tippen’s Root Stemming blood flow on shallow, surface wounds. Smells strongly of rotten eggs. Other Poultices Faerie Truffles General skin care. Salves and Balms Creating salves and balms requires oil; the method of extracting oil from herbs is described above. Melt infused oil with beeswax. Less beeswax will lead to a liquid consistency, which can be considered a salve. More beeswax will result in a solid consistency, which can be considered a balm. Salves and balms can be stored in containers for long periods of time, though they will eventually go rancid. Many of the herbs which can be prepared into a poultice or paste can also be used in salves and balms. It is often worthwhile to combine herbs so that the salve or balm serves a dual purpose. Medicinal Salves and Balms Aquate Root* Dry and chapped skin. Aqua Nymph & Frost Vine Healing burns with added pain relief. Blissfoil & Tippen’s Root Numbing and coagulation of wounds. This salve should never be applied with bare fingers and should be used sparingly. Dwarf’s Pumpkin* Fungal infections. Smells strongly of garlic. Other Salves and Balms Aquate Root* & Faerie Truffle Moisturiser. Tinctures Fill a jar with the herb of choice. Half fill the jar with boiling water. Fill the other half with a clear, distilled spirit. Store the jar in a cool, dark space for one month, shaking daily. Strain the liquid through a fine cloth. Pour into dark glass bottles. The dark glass will prevent the sunlight from weakening the medicinal properties of the tincture. Most teas and tonics can be made into tinctures, although the taste is much stronger and more unpleasant. Medicinal Tinctures Shade Leaf* Calming the body, particularly after a traumatic experience. Teas and Tonics Blot the leaves or flowers dry, then leave to dry fully in the shade. Steam the dried leaves or flowers, then allow the steamed leaves or flowers to fully dry in the sun. Store the dried tea in a wooden box in a cool, dry place. To prepare the tea for use, place two spoonfuls of dried tea in a cloth and allow to steep in boiled water for five minutes. Remove the used tea leaves and discard. To prepare a tonic, boil fresh herbs in water for one day, stirring occasionally. Tonics are not suitable to be stored for long periods of time; instead, a tincture should be made. Medicinal Teas Atheros* Minor aches and pains. Has a bitter taste. Bitter Reed Coughs, colds, and nausea. Coltsfoot* Coughs, colds, flu, and fever. The leaves and flowers of this plant should be used, as the roots are toxic. Excessive consumption can lead to growths. Javens Insomnia. Mandragora Aiding in the body’s natural regeneration, though when consumed unnecessarily can lead to painful ulcers in the throat and stomach. Shade Leaf* Relieves minor stress. Medicinal Tonics Draugr Tongue* When applied with a cloth, this can be used to soften the skin and make removing impaled objects easier. Exposure to open wounds stings terribly. Gislocinovi When boiled, this herb can be used to clean wounds. It is not to be taken orally. King’s Ivy Wakefulness. Serpent’s Stalk Reducing fever, though this herb should be used carefully as three measures will induce hypothermia. Syrups and Saps Create a tonic using the method described above. Add the tonic and honey to a pot. Swamp Blossom sap can also be used for a syrup with a thinner consistency. Stir constantly over a low heat until the mixture develops a thick, syrupy consistency. Allow to cool completely before bottling. Syrups are suitable for storage in a cool, dark place for up to half a year. Medicinal Syrups (taken orally) Coltsfoot* Shortness of breath. The leaves and flowers of this plant should be used, as the roots are toxic. Excessive consumption can lead to growths. Flash Fruit* Numbing a sore throat. Grobsnopper* Fighting infection. Nightsap One measure will result in five hours of calmness and joy; two measures will result in dreamless sleep. Medicinal Saps (applied topically) Amberiddle Sealing wounds. Barrier Bush Repelling moisture.
