She had thought that she would never be here again.
Yet, here she was and the serious young woman looked around with a half-smile on her face. Earnest silver eyes looked at the people who were making their way around, living their lives. She had looked at that building as Malcolm had described it to her and she had wanted, yearned to be allowed there. But slaves were not permitted. Not then and not now.
But one trial, Faith vowed. One trial.
This trial, she had work to do and she had arrived a full break early. That was good, it meant that she was rested and prepared. She had checked through her notes one last time, made sure that she had the protocol sorted and clear and she knew that she had prepared as much as possible. The university had agreed to help her with this and she knew why. If this worked, and there was no reason to think it would not, then it was a medical breakthrough and one which she would share.
Looking down at her bare feet and wiggling her toes in the grass, Faith smiled to herself. If this worked, it would save countless lives. In the park where she had met her, Faith dedicated these actions to Famula, that she might serve all in her study of the blood which was Famula's domain. She would make anything she found freely available, so that all were served and money was not made. Where money got involved, things tended to become exclusive and she had no wish for that.
Then, she dedicated her actions to Vri, that those who could be saved were. That those who loved might do so without sorrow for as long as was his will. Finally, Faith prayed to Moseke, that she might preserve life where life could be preserved, that she might heal those who were able to be healed.
"Life, death and all that is in between, unto my final breath and beyond." Faith whispered and then put her shoes back on and made her way to the university.
