<strong>Catherine Elizabeth</strong><br/><br/>She felt the muscles in her back bunched tightly as she carried the tree. She did not answer the other werecat right away in case Lylia wanted to take the mantle of leadership in this project. Though after a pause she decided the girl had been through more than enough for today. She licked her lips as she felt the heat of the sun upon her bare shoulders. She looked at Karnl as she spoke making sure to look to each of those assisting as if to say thank you.<br/><br/>“This tree is to be the begging of our healing center. A place where all were’s can come when they are injured or ill and their wounds can be tended to. Most of us here are in good shape but those we rescue may not be as lucky and I want to be ready for them, ready to help. Al were’s will be seen and treated regardless of whether they need treatment for their mind, body or soul. If you know of other healers willing to help in manning our center of healing please have them come to see me. If we all continue working together as well as we have today no were will ever need to fear a human again.”<br/><br/>She was not used to speaking so much and wondered if perhaps she had said too much but she felt the reassuring and approving presence of the spirits with her and as if to show their appreciation a breeze kicked up gently cooling those working. Now that the tree was here and in place she needed to dig a considerable hole for it to go into. That way the base of their healing center would be strong and they could build out from there. The plans were so vivid in her mind she could see what needed done with crystal clarify and was eager to proceed. She was unsure where the others would be headed off to for now but she took one of the already broken branches and her knife from her belt and started carving a crude shovel to start digging with. It felt wonderful to have a purpose, a feeling of comfort was slowly replacing the unease she had felt since their trek to this oasis. She looked at the sky and soon to set sun, her people would do well here.<br/>
