Haunted Wisp

Lydia did her best to appear relaxed and calm.  She hated to see the other take a step back in fear but she knew the feeling all to well having been a bundle of nerves since she'd been separated from her family.  She wondered if the other woman had had a similar experience.  The woman replied hesitantly, stating she was fine but the tone of her voice caused Lydia to doubt it but she wouldn't press.  It wasn't her place anyway.  The woman introduced herself as Valencia and Lydia gave her a nod of formal greeting.  "Nice to meet you Valencia.  My name is Lydia.  I'm a lone healer out collecting herbs.  What about you?  I don't suppose you've seen any Lamb's Ear about have you?"  She wasn't sure if the other was a healer but it was the best she could do to start a conversation.  She felt her stomach turn and knot and hoped she was saying the right thing.  The only other thing she thought she could possibly talk about was the weather.
