[Myri shakes her head, not embarrassed at all. In fact, she's just confused.] Only magicians trained at the University are taught to read where I come from. It's a skill that even kings have not mastered. I cannot imagine...

[She stops and smiles] Really? She mentioned something, but I don't think she'd mind the help. I'm not certain how long it takes for a person to learn, after all. I know some about treating wounds without magic, but I'm sure there's always more to learn.

Really? Is it because words are magic, or just because knowledge is limited to the magicians? It must be terribly difficult to communicate across distances and things - though I suppose you can probably do that with magic, too.

She might be busy during our mission - I can't imagine having more than one person working on it would hurt things. English is sort of tricky when it comes to spelling things properly, but I'm sure you'll pick it up soon enough. And yeah, I'm a doctor - someone who heals without magic - so I know all about it. There's probably a fair bit to do with modern medicine that I can teach you. Do you heal with herbs and things?

[witchwoman]

I'm not certain why it's that way- only that it's always been.

[She nods] Herbs are involved, yes. Cleansing wounds, wrapping, treating for pain.

[aproperdoctor]

We use chemicals - though a lot of them are derived from plants, just...mass-produced so we can get more of them. And surgery, cutting people open to treat them internally. I expect healing magic is probably even better for that sort of thing, though.

[There are words that she doesn't understand, but the gist is there.]

I would be very interested to see these things.
