Brother Osbert was sitting in a pew and studying scripture. He set aside his studies and moved to the healer.
"What is the matter Ertzel?"

Ertzel's wizened eyes gazed upon the Holy man. "We have...that is...a young lady has come to the cottage and she collapsed. Then she began to glow and wings formed at her back. "I was wondering if you might take a look at her. I have never seen anything like this before."

Osbert's eyes widened. "Is she at your cottage?"

Ertzel nodded. "The lass grew up here, this has never happened before. She was always a very normal soul. I simply...I can't explain what Tegau and I saw very well at all."

"Perhaps I had better see her for myself." Osbert said, rising to his feet.

"Thank you. I will do my best to keep up with you going back," Ertzel nodded. She turned and headed for the door.

In short time, they reached the cottage, and Ertzel led Brother Osbert around to the back door and in through the kitchen.

Buckley was outside in the privy, busy urinating.
Osbert stared at Brighid. "Did she say anything?"

Ertzel shook her head. "She moaned but no words."
An unearthly sound escaped Brie, sounding more like a harp than any being.

The sound of the harp filled the cottage as the wings glowed brighter and grew wider.

Brother Osbert gasped and half swooned. He sunk to the floor.

"Brother Osbert?" Ertzel called out worriedly. She lifted her head at a rustling sound, and found Brighid floating in the air, the wings flapping lightly. A soft glow emanated from Brighid's eyes.

Osbert stared at Brighid. He was unsure of what to make of this huimself but he was amazed.

A wordless harplike sound escaped Brighid before she flew from the cottage, disappearing almost immediately.

Brother Osbert could not get his legs to work fast enough to try to follow and see where she was going. He leaned against the wall and looked to Ertzel.

Ertzel glanced back. "Thoughts? Ideas? Is she good or evil?"

Osbert was hesitant to commit to deciding either way just yet.
"She doesn't seem evil." He said.

"I didn't think so." Osbert said.
"What's wrong with the door? I'd fix it but I don't see anything wrong with it." Nelek was saying to Difyr as the two came in the front door.

Difyr was tired and thinking about taking a nap.
"I can fix the door for you, Ertzel." Nelek volunteered, "But what is the matter with it?"

"It's fixed now, dear. You can go home to Aislyn," Ertzel replied.

"Oh. Good day." Nelek backed up until he was in the doorway. He carefully closed the door, watching the door for any signs of damage.

Ertzel smiled as he left, then turned with a serious expression to Brother Osbert. "What can we do for Brighid?"

"Pray." Osbert suggested.

Erztel dropped to her knees and instantly began praying for Brighid's soul.

Tegau looked worriedly at Ertzel. Will the old healer be able to get back up afterwards?

Osbert shook his head. "My library is such a tiny space I have hardly room enough to move without stepping on myself."

"As you wish. If you should change your mind, you know where to find me." Ertzel knew her offer would be declined. It was no secret to her that those of the cloth felt she was a witch.

"I shall let you know of any changes. Good day, Brother Osbert," Ertzel bid him farewell, turning to waddle slowly back to her cottage.

Osbert went to his library, deep in thought.
