"I met my Bardic teacher in an Inn where we both were entertaining. I had not seen many Elves before I met her and we impressed each other with our skills. I taught her many things she was quite happy to learn and she taught me much about becoming a bard. Sadly there came a time when she thought I had learned enough and she had other things she wished to do. But she had not gotten to teaching me Sidh and only a little of the Elf Sidh, even though she told me some about the Elven magics. I think she found she did not like how others reacted to me and decided the easier solution was to leave. She was never quite happy with my choice of deity either, but like you said my Goddess is somewhat allied to the Sidh powers as is the Court she belongs too. In the years since then, I have always planned to continue those teachings but never really had the chance til now. I suppose I have neglected to learn much of that I should have, but my path has been a busy one at times. I admit I am a bit stronger tied to Elder if my skill with those runes are any example. I was even told I could perhaps become a Wizard, though I personally do not think I am bright enough to do it credit, at least from what I have heard. The bardic life suits me fine enough that I do not need to do more than expand the spells I know and as a Bard I am allowed to learn any Elder, Sidh or Neutral Spell I can arrange training in. So I thank you for your offer and accept, is there anything else I can offer in return? I assure you I will honor your gift as it deserves, I do not treat such things lightly."
