Our good friend Garret here is too frostbitten for any further adventures out in this icy wilderness. And, between us, I wouldn't mind getting back to a cozy tavern."Jack flutters to Garret as he lands gracefully beside his prone body, half-buried in the snow. "Garret, my good man," Jack calls, "this isn't exactly the time for an impromptu snow angel contest. So if you could, please refrain from moving." Rummaging through a minuscule pouch at his waist, Jack produces a few sprigs of fairy herbs. He knows them to have potent healing properties among his kind and, while he can’t be sure of their efficacy on humans, at least it’s a start. "Now, now, don't get up on my account, friend. I do enjoy a good captive audience," Jack chirps with a wide grin.[SPOILER=Medicine skill check]Jack <a href="https://www.coyotecode.net/roll/lookup.php?rollid=280617" target="_blank">rolls a 16</a> for a Medicine skill check.[/SPOILER]Boy stands close by, whining with concern and nuzzling his owner's frostbitten hand.  Jack examines Garret closely for injuries and assesses his condition. Boy, sensing Jack's intention to help, paces back and forth, occasionally nudging an arm or a piece of cloth toward Jack with his snout. "Ah, Boy, you're an excellent nurse," and then to Garret, "A bit of cold can be invigorating, refreshing even, but too much will have you frozen stiff. And that’s no fun for any of us!"As Jack steps back, his tiny chest heaving, he crosses his fingers in hope, giving Boy a small pat on his head. "Well done, Boy," he whispers, and then to the group, "Does anyone know any healing magic?"</blockquote>
