Once, Tony was a student of an old Druid. An eager to learn one, at that.
She knew his skills would come in use, as they sat within the gardens of Balian.
"Tony, show me how to do a surgical stitch using an orange as skin."
He learned in under five minutes, his hands quick.
The Sister sat impressed, a smile coming upon her scarred lips.
"Sister Reindeer, when will be the next lesson?"
"Soon. You can save lives, Tony."
That night, he did. His skills came to use.
The Sister who knew Tony for his pride and understanding of her kin finally fell. The place they met took him by it's bloodied hands. A rare hatred, for her.
Tony treated her kindly, and always listened to her little spouts. He protected her when she felt trapped and surrounded by people who didn't understand her kin, and didn't take the time to learn.
She didn't know anything about his past or religious beliefs, anything of his magic use. The Sister just considered him a friend.
By word of mouth, she learned he was dead. She couldn't help but break down into tears learning yet another one of her friends were gone; it always seemed the second she met them, they were gone.
Sister Reindeer refused to speak to anyone for those few days, and trapped herself in the forest. She let herself mourn, pleading to the Aspects that he got home safe, and in his family's arms.
