Still she did not answer to the question of her name. And she would continue to not answer until they were in front of the thane and his identity was confirmed. If his story was true, perhaps she would feel bad for attacking the village leader's son in his own home. Then again, she probably wouldn't since he had charged her with an ax. Julianna figured it served him right for going after her.
When the house was awash in the glow of firelight, Julianna pulled her trunk from beneath the bed. She rifled around until she found what she was looking for. A leather pouch. Inside was the essentials of an effective first aid kit. She stood, tucking it under her arm. She laughed from across the room when he bid her to keep her distance. Instead of heeding his instructions she continued to move closer, gathering a basin of water with her as she did so.
"You have no idea how much blood a woman sees." She knelt next to him, pushing his hands away from his own injury as she did so. "Your own mother has seen more blood than you." She continued to scold him as she cleaned the wound with water and cloth. Julianna didn't look up at him as she spoke or as she worked. Leaning closer she pinched the edges of the gash together, now that she could see the severity with the new and old blood washed away from it. "I'm sure there was plenty of blood to be seen the day she pushed you from her womb." She discontinued probing him long enough to prepare a needle and thread to stitch him back together.
"As large as you are now. I could only imagine the size of your head as a babe." She was smirking again, not that it was easy to see beneath the fall of her hood. "This might hurt," she said as she sat up on her knees and pushed the needle through his skin without much warning than that.
Julianna was not gentle, but she was efficient and thorough. It wasn't long before she had turned the gash into a pucked and angry looking red line. Not the prettiest thing, but it was closed and he wouldn't be bleeding out any longer. "I can only hope you did the same to the boar." She wiped at the sutures with a clean cloth. "Rather embarrassing, otherwise."

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
