Ullara
Frau Wollinger sits quietly as Ullara considers the proposition, then responds. The matron's face is carefully composed, the studied neutral expression of one used to keeping their hopes in check in the expectation of receiving bad news. When Ullara concludes, agreeing to teach the children, a broad smile blossoms across the matron's face despite her best attempt to contain it.
"Thank you," she says after a moment to compose herself (although the smile keeps threatening to break out again). "I have the feeling that your answer came as as much a surprise to you as it did to me."
She takes a slow breath.
"Well, I suppose that we had better sort out some details. I really don't know anything about how one becomes a druid. I am authorised to apprentice the children when they are old enough and if I am convinced that they will be taken care of. But is this what you had in mind? They are both still quite young. Old enough to be apprenticed, but younger than I would usually like. Or were you thinking of teaching them here?"
[sblock=OOC]Eek! indeed
I as thinking that the children are about 12. According to Wikipedia, apprenticeships in the middle ages began between 10-15 years of age. But I haven't specified their age in the IC thread so give us some wiggle room.[/sblock]
