[ Set 6: Why exactly is the warm weather arriving so late this year? At this rate, your herb stores aren’t going to be stocked up anytime soon! Perhaps it’s time to start heading further afield to find what you need? Maybe one of the other Keepers or Shamans will be able to help, or maybe a trip into human territory might yield better results? ]

Pikewarren has had enough of winter and its deaths and losing more herbs every year. The lack of a proper spring was the last straw for him; he needed to do something about it before he lost his mind. To the other four guilds he went, spending one day in each, visiting their keepers or shamans to ask about their own stores and herb gardens. In their territories he hunted tirelessly for signs of herb life, digging through dirt and snow, focusing under trees and withered ferns and anywhere else that may have sheltered something beneath it. But most importantly, he sought ways to improve the gardening systems of each guild - that wasn't Alder, at least, he admired how well kept together the shamans were in their work - and increase the chances of more herbs surviving through a similarly tough cold season next year.
