I
study the plants of the forest and the grasslands and the waters. These
I keep in a pole house built in an open space in the forest where the
sun shines and the air is dry. I carried the stones for the platform
from the river banks and cut the poles and lashed them together with
rawhide soaked in water. I grow the storage gourds and trade for the
baskets. Here I can prepare the healing potions and poultices needed
to keep the Tsalagi well. No one is ever turned away unaided here. It
is well known in the territory. This is a place of study and of healing
for all.
