Matt's words are encouraging- and Emily's warning is taken to heart.
Yes, this spirit would be a useful ally- an effective teacher. Nathaniel had wished for more direction in elemental gifts. There was also the potential for Nature gifts, and who knew what else!
"thanks, Matt... Um.. I'll help. It'll be good, I can give this place a run down in the shadow, bring Chiminage for...it."
A deep breath, the final worlds. <<I will do what can// be done. I will help nurture// and help restore it>>
The spirit- it's form shifted, it seemed to react... Was it sorrow? Confusion? The mound it took the form of... Was that the form it wished to take?
<<I would like to know// Your right form- that I may help// and restore you too?>> And Nathaniel was incredibly curious. Spirit forms were always so intriguing.
<<And can I call you// With Uratha Rituals// When I wish to learn?>> Assurance that he wouldn't have to catch a ride or lug it here, to learn. And that this spirit wouldn't get peeved at being called. Maybe it could help with his survival skills? Or gardening? Maybe there was some ancient knowledge it might know. Nathaniel was excited to find out!
