 Following Her Way?
Once she'd learned to embrace the changes into the druidic animal forms Katia had gifted her with instead of fighting it, Maedhras found it much easier to simply be. Instead of a change happening midsentence; or worse, changing and not even being able to remember what she'd done in that form. That had happened with Jasper before she'd met Arestes; before she'd learned to accept the gift for what it was.
But now she was wondering if she was truly following Her way in other aspects of her life. Was she taking too much from the land and not giving back to it? Was she becoming corrupted by the temptations of the village life? Was she becoming greedy?
She had to make an effort, and only take what was needed, and no more. Pelts from people like Jasper and sweet Duur had to be used, and so she would barter for them, but never again would she herself go forth and take more than she could use.
She would try to follow Her way, even now. |
