Annica was sweeping the front side of the building when Brianna came.
"Take this."
Brianna handed a piece of paper to Annica.
"Go to the physician's house and buy me the herbs I've written down on the paper."
"The physician?" Annica asked, taking the paper from Brianna's hand.
"Yes. The physician. You do know what a physician is, don't you? Someone who understands medicines?" Brianna said, tossing a pouch of coins towards Annica and hitting the girl's chest before being caught by her hand. "I heard he lives near the market in the city center and is quite famous for the efficacy of his remedies."
Annica blinked, looking at Brianna. She had never been to the city alone. And honestly, after what happened yesterday, she felt more comfortable inside the building where soldiers roamed everywhere.
"To the city? A-alone?" Annica asked.
