Eione was not terribly close to the adults in Nyesha's family but she was familiar with the cubs and thought of her late friend often so when she heard from an apothecary that one of the boys was feeling under the weather she was eager to stop by and see what was going on. She had with her a few herbs that were safe for cubs in case they were needed but mostly she was hoping to find it was something simple. Nyesha had become sick early and it had progressed very quickly, it didn't leave anybody's mind when they thought of her sons. Whatever made her so vulnerable to it might well have passed on to them.
Maybe this wasn't that, though. Eione was still relatively new to being a fully trained and independent healer but she was confident. Cubs could be tricky to figure out, she had to keep that in mind through whatever impulse she felt to overdo it from personal bias.
