About this class
You listen to what others cannot hear.
You understand that life is connected in ways that cannot always be seen. You know the rituals of your people, the stories of those who came before, and the signs that appear when something in the living world is out of balance.
You are a healer, counselor, interpreter, ritualist, and guide.
You do not command the living world.
You listen to it.
