Kate was glad he was not shy and did not mind having a bath. She found him to have a carelng spirit. "You never had a healer? No wonder you scars and wounds are deep. Is good you like cider and you need or want anything please ask. You know what a friend is. That is good. It is rare a slave has friends so I have been told. Lady Malora, was she your former mistress?"<br/><br/>Kate did not stare at him when he got out. She took the lid off the salve. "I am sorry; this is going to hurt a bit." She hands him a pillow. "You want to lie down or sit up?" Kate took a deep breath and looked at him concerned. Before i start, you will feel heat from my mana. It will help heal the minor wounds over your body and take the edge off the pain. When  I am done. I will cover your back with a cold cloth. That is to keep the swelling down. Tell me when ready."<br/><br/>Kate pulled up a chair to the cot. She left his hair wrapped in the towel. "I will get the tangles out of your hair and tie it back with a black silk ribbon."
