Master Of None

Having joined the effort to change bandages walker reached the last weapon fairly quickly. As he reached to apply them a soft slightly tan hand beat him to the punch. Looking up the girl that had been singing was there not even noticing she had just stolen the bandage from his hands. She was incredibly focused on her actions that she soon had finished bandaging her patient and stood up with a look of relief. Everyone Ha even helped today and now it was time to rest.

"You're pretty fast, you must have practiced for a long time." There was nothing but pure admiration in walkers words. His face Had come slightly blushed as he tried to keep from staring at the girl in front of him.

She smiled a bit giving him a nod. Walker wasn't sure if she was just shy or didn't want to talk but decided to persevere and introduce himself. "My name is walker, I'm the leader of the omnipotent party. We were showing some friends around and decided to see performance for the first time. There are no words to describe your performance. I believe it's complimentary to gift flowers to the star, I don't have the usual ones but I have an idea." Walker eyed a basin of clean water and used his elemental manipulation skill to create an iced bouquet of wildflowers. The shimmered in the light of the stained glass trapping and reflecting the rainbow colors. "I hope these will suffice." Walker plucked the frozen bouquet and offered them to her.

She was stunned her lips formed an O shape and her eyes were dazzled by the details. She had yet to witness this form of magic and thought it very similar to her own control of the light element. She grasped the bouquet feeling the cool icy stems. They may have been melting fast in the warmth of the cathedral but the beauty she had seen in a moment was forever ingrained within her.

"Ooh I see you've met my daughter Alice." The high priest had regained some energy after resting and decided to check on the two who had just finished assisting the last patient. "I was blessed by the holy lord to find her abandoned on our doorstep one winter night. Since then she's been my daughter." So her name was Alice, walker would make sure not to let it escape him. Yet even though her eyes was entangled by the melting bouquet she still didn't utter a word. This confusion was plain on walkers face. "Ah I'm sure you're wondering why I'm introducing her, well as you saw she can obviously speak but due to her system her words are infused with mana. She has a mystical power in her system, it's called the rainbow songstress system. She had amazing ability to form light in to the shape and form her words delegate. However this ability never turns off so if she speaks too much she could exhaust herself easily. Her very words can heal and bring calm to the very soul. I believe it was a blessing from the world itself for her to be left here and I will never change my mind." The high priest didn't look sad at all while explaining her risky abilities. Instead he looked like a proud parent whose child had demonstrated a great accomplishment.

This system was amazing in its own respect. It had the ability to finely control light to give it form. This in turn allowed it to assist in healing through the forms created. To be able to properly use these skills one would need a very strong understanding of the light element, this explained why Alice was fairly tan. Spending many hours in the light of the sun to practice and understand would be natural to her. Loosing the ability to safely converse with normal words was a major downside but looking at how Alice acted and how happy she was to be helping others not a single bit of sadness could be found. It was like the high priest said, a true blessing.

"I understand, that is a pretty intense system. Although seeing what she's made of it I doubt any could do the same. I recently gained the ability to manipulate light and I can't make it dance as Alice does it the least." Walker raised a hand and used his elemental manipulation to cause the light through the stained glass to make a varying rainbow. "This is the most I think I can do before I practice more. I feel silly compared to you, hahaha." The nervous laugh was completely ignored as Alice had snapped her head up. She hadn't met anyone else who could move light like here even in a small way. She had seen Ross channel light through objects, she always saw the orb in the main hall of the cathedral give of light, she had even seen some fire healing skills that had white flames but it wasn't pure light. She snagged walkers hand her smile bigger than before, her gaze was full of pressure.

Walker knew exactly what she wanted to ask "of course I'll practice and come back to help again. It would not due for a hero with healing powers to let them waste away..." his face was redder than a tomato, this was too much for him. Turning his head away he saw Gil and Remey holding back laughter while looking his way.

Pffft...Ha he's...hah hah look how red..." Remey struggled to get this out through forced breathing and small giggles.

"Looks like little walker has grown up and found a wife" Gil put the nail in the coffin, walker was officially the most embarrassed he'd ever been.

Alice had also heard their words and dropped his hand showing a slightly red face as well. The high priest saw this as a good time to wrap things up and rest. They did have another performance later in the day and recovering their mana was utmost importance. "Well I hate to steal Alice from her new friend but we need to rest. We have our second performance in only a few hours. We need to be ready to play the whole piece. Please come again when you have the chance, and if you leave for an adventure know that you're always welcome to heal and recover fatigue here." The high priest turned to head toward a door at the end of the hall.

Alice had followed him constantly glancing back as she walked. She paused a moment as the frozen bouquet dripped a few more drops "thank you" the sweetest voice walker had ever heard whispered just now. He again dropped his jaw for a moment as his heart may have just stopped.

"I-I um I'll bring more next time..." walker struggled in his reply. Alice was almost out of the room by then but if walker had seen her face he would have known how happy she was to hear he would return.
