[QUOTE="Isida Kep'Tukari, post: 6379016, member: 4441"] [b]Ullara Halx, female human druid with dog animal companion Bran[/b] "Heddy did say so. Perhaps if Herr Murinae was ill for so long, he began to study other things as a hobby, or even did befriend some rats. It's not the strangest thing that has happened." "That would be very welcome thank you-," Ullara begins, but falls silent again, as Frau Wollinger is not done. Ullara felt her mouth drop open, and shut it quickly. Her? Take two children? But- It- She- What?! She was tending to tasks for the Baron, and has just this morning survived a rat swarm and saved a boy no older than those children from almost certain death. To take children willingly into such danger... And she didn't know too many other druids of the Witchwood. Her mother had been the one to teach her all she knew, and that had been... Ullara swallowed. At her side. She had learned everything she knew at her mother's side. From identifying plants to tracking animals, the language of the druids to the oaths of power, everything had come from her mother's patient teaching. She had not worked for a powerful man, but certainly there must have been times where hungry wolves or bears, or rapacious bandits had threatened their little family. Yet Ullara hadn't be aware of the danger, thinking of hiding like a little rabbit as a game. More than once, Ullara and Mother had talked, and Ullara remembered saying how she'd teach her own children some day, just like Mother had taught her. Well. It seemed fate had taken a hand there.

Would she let the belief of two bright, nature-loving children be snuffed out through the necessities of life because it was an [I]inconvenience[/I] for her? "My chosen path is not an easy one," Ullara said, once she'd gotten over her flabbergasted moment. "There are duties I'm bound to that are dangerous as anything you'd find on the streets of the city.
