He found himself with dysentery and lost in a sandstorm so he thought he was good as dead, but he was found by a merchant caravan. The women gave him their ancient medicines and mixtures that desert dwellers had used for hundreds of years.
He was so lost in his fever that he did not question the veracity of their claims. When he was well again after only a few days, an impressed Watson asked them to teach him about their medicines. He explained he was a medicine man and would gladly trade techniques while he searched for a British camp. They agreed, and Watson was happy to learn what he could to when supplies became scarce; an all too common occurrence in the middle of a war.
When he found a British camp to return to, Watson thanked his companions and saviors. They gave him some of their oils, along with the knowledge of how to find and make more. From then on, if Watson saw a plant he recognized, he took some, stored it, and labeled it. So it was that when the morphine ran out, he had dried plant leaves that helped with the pain.
He found that garlic functioned as an antibiotic and also helped to counteract the venom of scorpions slowing its ill effects. Watson used the powdered wormwood the medicine’s women had given him, for the worse cases of malaria. Patients with dysentery, Holarrhena’s oil, diarrhea and other stomach disorders could be eased with boiled rice water, which helped prevent dehydration.
Back in London, John Watson didn't expect these skills to be used after the war, but he never forgot them. When Sherlock was so ill he refused to eat or even sip at a cup of tea, Watson had a solution. He forced Sherlock to take boiled rice water and peppermint, the peppermint improved the flavour as well as helping the stomach. Sherlock labeled him a witch and primitive primate, but when he was eating soup a day later, Sherlock didn't dare to say a word against his methods ever again.

The Bard: We can't have a challenge without a little Shakespeare. Use a quote, a reference, or the man himself - it's all up to you
I choose the sonnet 17 :
Who will believe my verse in time to come
If it were filled with your most high deserts?
Though yet heaven knows it is but as a tomb
Which hides your life, and shows not half your parts:
If I could write the beauty of your eyes,
And in fresh numbers number all your graces,
The age to come would say this poet lies,
Such heavenly touches ne'er touched earthly faces.
So should my papers (yellowed with their age)
Be scorned, like old men of less truth than tongue, And your true rights be termed a poet's rage,
And stretched metre of an antique song.
But were some child of yours alive that time, You should live twice in it, and in my rhyme.

Alternate Universe is defined as any universe which differs significantly from Canon Alternate Universe is not taking a movie or book scene and making it different from the original (for example, making the swamp adder in SPEC bite Holmes instead of Roylott is not an alternate universe, merely an alternate scene).
You must create an alternate universe, an entire new world while keeping these characters in character.

"A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave." - Mohandas Gandhi.
Author's Notes 2: This is a companion to the Ordeal of the Sun’Heir. This took me a little more of time because i needed to research about Athena a lot more than I thought at the beginning. Finally 'The gray-green eyed one' is one of the names of Athena because her eyes were gray, blue and green and if you read the drabble In The Name of the Gods would know that John means 'The Gracious'who is also an epithet for Apollo. and Sherlock means 'Fair haired' that i change a little for headed in relation with the golden helmet which Athena born with.
Finally Triton was the one who assisted the labor of Athena making a cut in the head of Zeus so she could born from him. Hephaestus and his Mother Hera never liked Athena and Hephaestus had an endless rivalry with Athena for who made the most beautiful weapon, tried to trick her and rape her, obviously he didn't succeeded.

Sherlock Holmes was stressed and mad because his dad, Siger, left him with a riddle and he was unable to find the needle in that impossible field.
“Three terrible trigger tigers touring together in the tainted lands,
Tumbled and twisted with fever, without a river on the sands,
Until one died, stabbed, and mourned for the older in Afghanistan,
Two of the trigger tigers came back to homeland feeling strangers,
One tired tiger tried to be caring and tender, treating the helpless,
The other trigger tiger turned treacherous; distasteful and mindless,
You need to find and bind with the tender and kill the treacherous danger.”
What Sherlock didn't know was he had one of the tigers at his side, and the other was waiting with his enemy for the moment to attack.
