Lucas translates every now and then, causing pauses as he goes through the languages for all the listeners and spirits, then gesturing for her to go on each time. By the end he's obviously affected by the day so far. He's lost at least five pounds, maybe more. He's having to speak slower and take more time to catch his breath, and he can't fight the shakes, but he's still speaking crisp and clear, translating every word precisely and making sure that she does not stop until her story is done.
"Tehya wishes you to know she feels that becoming a healer is a most noble endeavor, and is proud to lend her hands to such work, and hopes they will serve you well. Now, this next part is going to be most critical. Please lie down and stay very still. I am going to bond your spirits that you can take on her form, and in the times that you are in human shape, Tehya will proudly run with the four legs of a wolf spirit. I wish I could promise there will be no pain, and I will prevent all I can, but it will be difficult, it will likely be painful, and many times you will feel weak or faint. You must stay awake, and you must try very hard not to make any noise you don't absolutely have to. Take five minutes to ready yourself, steel your nerves, and gain any support you can from looking on your loved ones. They must not speak to you, but you may speak to them. When you are ready, lie down, and tell me that you are prepared, and we will finish the ritual."
