Astrid exhaled a sigh of accomplishment, setting down the last of the labeled jars onto the shelf in front of her. She had spent the last few hours setting up and labeling the cozy sized storage room for the various potions and medical supplies for the coming school term. As an older sister she was hoping to not burn though much of the supplies as people kept safe but the healer and secret knight inside her knew it was to common of an occurrence for people not to hurt themselves so it was better she was well supplied now then worry about running out right away. Thankfully the room was the same size as her family's down in the village so making it nearly identical in organization would help get her the needed remedies a lot sooner.
She lightly dusted off a small side table and put out the candle she had been using for light before exiting back out into the main room of the infirmary. Astrid still couldn't believe the size of the room, grand with tall ceilings, plenty of room for more than a dozen beds, and windows that brought in both natural sun and moon light. She supposed its what an official healer or medic would be wanting to work in but given her roots it was a little overwhelming on and off.
Hearing her name and a familiar ring of the voice, Astrid raised her late father's wand and quietly muttered the illumination spell. The tip of the wand lit up as she stepped across the room. "Lady Rowena?" she asked as she came to a halt. Thankfully the windows provided some light with the addition of her wand and she was able to see the raven haired woman well enough. She offered a light warm smile once she was close enough for the other woman to see her clearer in the wand light.
"Good evening Lady Rowena. Please excuse the darkness of the room, I wasn't expecting any late night visitors until tomorrow." Astrid continued but as she spoke she was studying her face, the tell tale signs of something not quite right. Not wanting to jump to anything just yet, she waved her empty hand out towards the row of beds as if offering Rowena the option to sit down and get a little more comfortable should she want to. At the moment it was all she had as far as places to sit. She hadn't thought about getting some chairs but the idea was speaking up a bit in her mind to look into getting some before things picked up with the start of school.
Pulling herself out of her own thoughts, Astrid focused on Rowena knowing there was more likely a reason for her visit so late into the evening. "Was there something I could be of help with? I've got nearly everything set up should you be interesting in looking it over and giving me your opinion on if anything needs to be adjusted or changed." she said.
