With each encounter for the Vale, the woman was growing fond in favoring that perhaps the fall of the mountain brought with it purpose as well. Tragedy had befallen them, yes, but as well did an opportunity in new faces and arrangements made.
Quietly, she looked upon the grey female as one such treasure to have come to them the instant her skills were carefully spoken. Her brows perked slightly as relief curled her lips to a gentle smile. “Then your skills will be greatly appreciated here.” Her words were sincere though her smile somewhat lessened as she turned her muzzle to look behind her. “Unfortunately the mountain falling has left several of our brethren injured,” she informed the young Xi. “There is a male that comes to assist them when he is able, yet in his absence we need watchful eyes and aiding paws to tend to those that are resting.” Calmly she turned back to the young healer, again wearing a gentle smile even as it was pulled but sadness. “Perhaps you and may learn from him to better your skills. And in due time, perhaps you will be able to assist me as well.” And for a moment, the woman’s expression brightened. |
