Tegan smiled, rubbing Seranii's head. "It's okay. That was a long time ago, I'm use to it," she sighed. "We can't change things that happen to us in the past, all we can do is make the best of the time that we have left," she smiled, indirectly comforting Seranii about her past, a past that she hadn't revealed to Tegan yet. "What do you think about that? Are you ready to make a good future with me? I'm going to need your help."

Tegans kind words make Seeranii feel warm inside. She let out a soft purr and relaxed slightly. "I would love to help you" The cat girl said Softly "what do you need me to do?" She pushed her self up off the floor and took yet another look around the cottage, still getting used to her new home. It didn't seem like it needed cleaning. and there were sweet rolls still on the table, so any cooking could wait. Then a thought hit her, She wasn't even quiet sure what -exactly- Tegan did.. beyond being a Sorceress. She turned around to Face the woman as she spoke "what are you studying?" she asked Abruptly.

"Well the town on the outside of this forest has employed me as their resident physician, so I'm studying herbal medicines. You may have to run errands for me to deliver medicine to sick people in town when I'm too busy to do it myself. You wouldn't mind doing that would you?," Tegan asked Seeranii. She never believed in making anyone do something that they didn't want to do. Seeranii was her assistant not her slave.

"That would be Cool, I like helping people. So helping people get better would be nice, and I love town. all the little shops and all the nice people running around, There is a woman That works at the bakery.. she is nice. she let me stay with her and her husband for a few nights before I came here. She is the one that made me the Sweet Rolls to bring you." The Cat girls tail was now flicking around excitedly behind her and she was pacing around the Cottage in little circles as she spoke.

Tegan could feel the wind as Seeranni walked back in forth. She giggled at the little cat's excitement. "So a lot of my potions will be medicines, so we are both going have to do a good job so we can make people feel better. So tomorrow morning we are going to have to start making the garden outside and gathering some wild plants and herbs in the meantime. Until I can get the plants to grow we may have to go into town and buy some of the herbs that I will need to start out," she thought out loud, making lists in her head.

The young girl nodded "I can do what ever you need Miss Tegan" She glanced over at the book shelf again "Which books have the herbs you need in them? so I can start reading about them?" Seeranii was eager to begin, waiting till the morning seemed like it was going to be agonizing.

Tegan smiled at her enthusiam. "Well if you really want to get started it should be the books that specifically have 'herb' in the title. If you have any questions about a title you don't understand just read it to me and I will help you understand it. You will be understanding all this stuff in no time. You're eager you will learn easy." She had confidence in Seeranii.

Seeranii quickly made her way to the book self, she started pulling books out of the self and stacking them up in her free arm. She took down every book she could find that had "Herb" in the title. Once she had so many books that she could barley hold them with out then falling and scatter across the floor, she carefully walked over to the corner that Tegan had set up as a bed or the cart girl. and dropped all the books down next to them. "Is there anything you need Miss Tegan?"

Tegan smiled in the direction of her voice. "Oh not at all. Thank you Seeranii, you will find that I am pretty good at handling things on my own." Tegan got up, careful to feel for the corner of the table this time, and hurried off to the cabinets in the corner next to the wood-burning stove. "I've got to heat you up something to eat for dinner, you're going to be starving after all that studying. "I didn't have time to make a stew, so all I have are beans and bread. Is that okay?"

"oh!" Seeranii perked her ears up and sprung up off the floor. "I can make that for you" she rushed over the Tegan, trying to see around her to what she was doing. She extended her arm, reaching out towards the uncooked food. Her eyes bulged as she remembered her Manors and restrained her self from grabbing the Items out of the woman's hands. "Please let me help you Miss Tegan"

Tegan smiled. "No Seeranii it's okay I got this." She extended one of her hands slowly so she wouldn't run into the little kitty. She touched her shoulder gently. "You are doing exactly what I need you to do, you are doing very important work for me right now. So I can do all the little stuff. Don't worry about this stuff," she rubbed Seeranii gently on the head.

"o-oh, ok" The cat girl said Wearily. The warm touch on her shoulder made Seeranii Smile, She nodded her heat dutifully and walked back to the bed area. She plopped down and pulled the top book off the stack, It was large and it smelled old. Seeranii liked the smell of books. She opened up to a page in the middle and looked at a picture of a Plant Its leaves where shaped oddly but the flowers where a pretty color. The girl noticed that a lot of the pages at corners turned down and she started Flipping around the book, looking at the things that had been marked.

Tegan noticed how sad Seeranii seemed. "I'm sorry Seeranii. I hope that you don't think it's because I don't want your help. I'm just so use to doing things on my own," she tried to reassure her. "But you are definitely doing something that I can't do," she smiled. "I can't read those books, so I won't know what to use if the herbs are in the ancient books." She bent down and felt around for a pot in the bottom cabinet. She pulled out a pot and sat it on top of the stove, which was already burning.

"How come all the pages are marked?" Seeranii asked "There are a lot of herbs in this book, I don't know if i can remember them all, which ones do you use?" The cat girl, lay down on her belly, and wiggled around in the pile of blankets until she was comfortable, laying the book on the floor in front of her she eagerly read it with her nose nearly touching the pages.

"Hmm...let me see," Tegan thought for a moment, while stirring the beans in the pot. "I'll use anything that says its a pain reliever or relaxer. You should get some paper from the bottom of the bookshelf. I think it would be important to make a list of all the pages that are marked. Write down the name of the plant and what it's common uses are. We will start catagorizing their importance over dinner, which is just about ready." She smiled and continued to stir the hot beans.

Seeranii went to retrieve the paper and laid back down, once again squirming around till she was comfortable. she closed the dusty tomb and opened up to the very first marked page, preparing herself to make a list as she had been instructed. Then, She nearly Slapped her palm to her head "Uhh.. Miss Tegan, Where is a Pencil?" Seeranii blushes over her incompetence and Fidgeted with her tail a bit.

"I'm sorry Seeranii I forgot that you don't know where everything is here yet," Tegan frowned still stirring the beans. "Okay I'm going to do something but I don't want you to be frightened. " After warning the little cat and still managing to stir the soup, Tegan focused on the top of the bookshelf. She closed her eyes, a box on the top of the bookshelf began to shake and a pencil began to float towards Seeranni. It landed on top of the closed book.

Seeranii stared, her mouth gaping, and her eyes wide. She had never seen anything like this before. she wasn't sure what to say and her tail twitched nervously behind her. She extended a finger and poked the pencil to see if it were real. It felt real. she waves her hand over it. There were no strings attached. She looked back up at Tegan "how? ...I don't understand...Cant you teach me to do that too?" The nervousness seemed to be subsiding in favor of more Excitement.

Tegan smiled. "Of course I can, but it will take many, many years of discipline. I haven't even reached my full potential yet," she explained. She carefully removed the beans from the stove and put them in the middle of the table. She felt around in a top cabinet and pulled out two bowls and two spoons. "Do you think you would like to stay with me that long?," she sat down in one of the chairs, motioning for Seeranii to do the same thing.

Seeranii started to nod her head vigoursly, Tegan was such a Kind woman and the cat girl loved the way the woman's fingers felt in her fur. But not wanting to seem overly eager she squeaked out a timid "Maybe.." Pushing her self off the ground she gathered up the Large book, the paper, and the pencil and set them all down on the table so she could Continue making that list Tegan had asked for. "Thank you So much for the beans Miss Tegan" Seeranii said politely before starting to eat, her eyes glued to the pages of the book.

"Oh it's no problem. It's just beans," Tegan waved her hand and put a spoonful in her mouth. "So are you learning anything new? Are there a lot of herbs that are pain killers?" She was excited to start her work. The whole time that she was a apprentice she wanted to help people, so when she was told that there was a postion open for a physician she jumped at the chance. A lot of people doubted that she wouldn't be able to do it because of her eyes, but she was going to show them different.

"they are really good beans" The cat girl said through a mouth full of food, eating spoon full after spoon full, rather quickly. She old paused to scribble something down on the paper or to turn the page in the book. the entire time she was eating the beans her eyes did not leave the old dusty pages. "There are a few" Seeranii said swallowing a large mouth full before she continued to talk "there are also a few that have notes such as 'Cures a cough', or 'Helps prevent headaches' or 'Makes immune system stronger', I am making note of those Herbs, and there uses on the side of the paper, I hope that is okay" Seeranii bit her lip, a bit nervous of doing something she had not been told to do.

"You're doing a great job," Tegan encouraged her. "I'm glad you are making a note of those, that will make it easier on me when it comes to choosing the best herbs to buy and plant in the garden. You and me will be going into town tomorrow to get those herbs and then we will be able to start making potions. What do you think about that?" She smiled, already knowing Seeranii's answer.

"That sounds great Miss Tegan!" Seeranii explained with excitement. She started to bounce in her seat, her tail flicking around happily behind her. She still held the pencil and scribbled down notes when eve she found something relevant. "Where will the garden be?" The cat girl asked and then a had a thought, she bite her lip nervously and squeaked out "Miss Tegan, can I ask a Question?"

Tegan was about the garden question when she heard a difference in Seeranii's voice when she talked about asking her a question. "You can ask me anything you want dear. Don't be afraid." She stopped eating so she could be attentive to the little cat girl.
