Ah, I only asked because I was trained as a healer in the North, so I wasn't entirely sure if you were the same sort of... doctor as I would be considered to be.

And no offense about the North. It is... admittedly a little bit frigid for some, though I do have to say that even this climate might be a bit warm for me in the summer months; thankfully the solstice is approaching fast, so it's not too terrible here, I don't think. But yes, it does cut down on the visitors up there.

[Forgive her, Oobleck; she won't be divulging her entire life's story as easily!]
