Her head still tilted up to the sky, pondering the velvet night and shards of planets glimmering in it's depths. She found it easier to look to the sky than to sunset girl, for the hues of her voice were not as pleasant as the hues of her coat, making the contradicting mare dismal to look at, despite what beauty the glow of her fur promised.

The sunset girl spoke again, an answer to a mostly trivial question Agnodice asked. A journey. Everyone, she supposed, was on a journey, be it physical or mental. Therefore, she expected the answer from the mare to be what she heard. Agnodice was pleased for a moment, till her eyes fell from the velveteen sky and landed on the silken sunset of a girl as divine, sorrowful lyrics left her lips.

The doctor could not hide the sympathy that she felt for Cora, her lips falling apart, muzzle still aimed at the sky. Her chin fell slowly back down, along with her eyes, now dropping to the water. Her whole body seemed to shrink, to diminish along with the end of the jumbled, tragic lyrics from Cora.

The duchess moved slowly then, bending her neck and opening the glass basket at her hooves. She fumbled around in it for a moment before producing a dark green plant with fuzzy flowers, though she tossed aside the flowers. She nodded to herself before grabbing a daisy like flower from the basket and a couple more green leaves, though these leaves had a rather distinct, minty smell. She closed the basket and placed the assortment upon it's lid, picking the basket up and moving cautiously closer to Cora, a trail of flowers and petals littering the water behind her.

Agnodice placed the basket in front of them tenderly, giving Cora a small smile of reassurance. "This," she motioned towards the first set of dark green leaves, "is diamond-leaf willow, to strengthen you for your journey," she moved her nose then to the daisy like flower, "this is chamomile, to help your mind strengthen you, and this -" she motioned then towards the last set of dark green minty smelling leaves, "is peppermint. It tastes wonderful!" Agnodice exclaimed, a flurry of petals erupting from her hair with her body's excitement. "All for you," She added with a confirming nod.

She looked to Cora eagerly, hoping, praying this would be enough to help the sunset girl on her journey.
