Would real warriors herbs really work in real life?
I know cobweb and marigold do. This is how I know. My cat, Elvis, bit me one day and it was bleeding, so I went outside and found a cobweb and put it on the place where the bite was. About 5-10 minutes later I checked the bite, and found that it was no longer bleeding. Now for the marigold. Again, my cat bit me, and I went out walking and found a marigold flower that was not in a garden. So, I picked the flower and rubbed it on my bite for about 30 seconds and it wasn't stinging or hurting as bad as it was before I rubbed the flower on it. I don't know about the other herbs though. Hope this helps! NOTE: DO NOT TRY DEATH BERRIES!
