There's a Wide World Out There

Something about Indigo- or perhaps it was just the situation of traveling for a new mentor- made her a lot more humble than she would have been at home. When he answered her that their first part would be dependent on what she already knew, she felt a surge of nervousness. “I want to be, but I’m still learning.” She insisted- trying to avoid him setting his expectations too high. The last thing she wanted to do was disappoint her new teacher.

When he went on to bring out the first item on his agenda, she immediately recognized it as something familiar. However, her experience with lavender was rather limited. “I know of it, but haven’t really used it.” Mariah responded after her brief moment of examination. She recognized seeing it in the stores in the medical den back on Alias Island. Unfortunately, a lot of what she had experienced so far in most of her training was theoretical, rather than practical application. And while it was easy to do trial and error with something she knew to be poisonous ... healing herbs were a lot more finicky.
