Gorby was a Healer at Keroon Runnerhold late in the Sixth Pass.
During the feline-caused flu plague, Gorby sent word to Healer Hall that the Keroon Runnerhold needed medicines - because they had dwindling stocks of borrago and aconite and needed tussilago in quantity for pulmonary and bronchial cases, ilex for pneumonia. In reply, Desdra had Fortine compile a list of alternatives - ash bark, box, ezob, and thymus as well as borrago and featherfern.
