Though, a blessing might not be out of the question. We'll see. I actually came here hoping someone would know something about ghosts and other restless spirits. I've heard the Mother is all about second chances, but I'm not sure that's quite what she has in mind. I'm afraid I'm a little out of my depth though, and need some help from an expert."

"I could certainly come to inspect, however our brothers and sisters of Takri would be better suited to your task. I believe brother Wyn Roth may be capable of helping, though I'm unsure where to find him. He does side work adventuring, so possibly O'Malleys."
"What can I help you with miss?"

She has long since granted me the Boon of speaking with animals, but I feel a need for improvement to serve her well. I already care for her animals, and plants in a limited capacity, and as a doctor I am creating second chances for many. But there is something inside which drives me to more. I cannot explain it."

This calling you are feeling has come to many of us who serve The Mother. Not all are priests, and though I'm no master I can teach you what I know.

I'm not sure we could spare the women to watch these boys though. I have another suggestion. We employ professionals to train the orphans once they are old enough to learn a trade. Are there any skills these boys may be lacking or look promising in? We could send out someone to educate the boys, and act as a governess short term in the process."

I would like to meet with those available to tutor, and see if I might find a mix of candidates."

I felt a pull....like something has been offered. But I'm uncertain what it means." She pauses, then indicates the Temple. "Brother, the Mother represents life. I see art and representation of the values. But aside from the worshippers, I see no life. Would it strengthen the Mother's voice here if we had living things growing here? Perhaps an indoor garden? I'm sorry if I seem overbold, but it feels like the right thing."

We keep a garden in the side plot next to the temple, but our shrine is nothing like others I have been to. Surrounding ourselves for all forms of life pleases The Mother."
"I hope our fellow worshiper here does not mind me divulging some information about him. He hopes to build a port to bring a surge in commerce for Valarez. This too is life inspired by The Mother. To build a thriving city is to give life to her. We will pray on these tasks for hopes of gaining The Mother's blessing in both."
The brother returns with a list for Aeos. "I took the liberty of listing only female members of our arrangement. Each is listed under their respective area of expertise."

"I'm sorry, brother. This wasn't a directive from the Mother, so far as I know. It was only a suggestion that made sense to me. I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression. But...if you wanted suggestions, I know a fair amount of lore concerning plants and their care. I'll talk to the brothers about this." The half-elven woman acknowledges Aeos with a half-curtsy. "A pleasure, Master Foldstone. I am Tanda Brightflower. I own and operate the Saddle Rack and Hoofers."
