Heron Lake Plateau Is it cool that I said all that?

Once Niamh was out of earshot, Fiadh shared her concerns with her father. Elwood listened, nodding thoughtfully as she expressed her trouble with picking a trade for herself. He remembered having a conversation with her on this very topic when she was younger, and at the time her indecision had seemed age-appropriate. While she was older now, he could still understand why it was difficult for her to decide what she wanted to dedicate her life to; it was a big decision, and as Fiadh herself said, she seemed to have many things she enjoyed or was good at.

"Well," he said, "there are two ideas that jump to my mind right away, just based on what you said. You could be a counselor, like Mom, who helps others with making decisions or resolving conflicts. Or maybe a caregiver. Eljay is a caregiver, and his specialty is taking care of puppies, but Raven is also a caregiver and she focuses more on the medical side of things. But in general, a caregiver does just what the name suggests -- takes care of his or her pack." He paused, waiting for feedback from Fiadh before providing her with more information.
