I will bring you what I am able to find. Things that grow without light are a specialty of mine ...and I got very good at scavenging in a place where food was very scarce. I know well what one should and shouldn't eat...! I am familiar with old herbal remedies as well, I suppose.

Yes, it has been very exhausting.

Not exactly, but there might be many reasons for that. I think ...if there is an equivalent of where I am from in this place it must be across an ocean. The aesthetics here remind me of cultures I am familiar with but are not my own, if that makes sense. Taking that aside ...many of the remedies I grew up with are old traditional sorts of remedies that I do not believe are still widely used by the rest of my home country.
