“Nonsense,” Temperance replied briskly, irked as she often was by Blythe’s apparent inability to have any confidence in her own talents. The Lord taught them to be modest, and she was proud of her niece for the excellent example she set to the other youngsters in their congregation, but it didn’t mean she could ignore her potential. Especially not when she may be able to serve the Lord a little more appropriately.

“You’ll rise to the challenge as I did,” she insisted, turning to hold her niece’s gaze and speaking in a tone that was, for her at least, relatively soft. “You have the soul of a healer in you Blythe, I know you do.”
