Medicine Man

For years now the Medicine Man has been the sole responsible for the village's physical and spiritual well being. He kept the traditional methods of mixing ingredients and brewing remedies alive while adding new recipes and procedures of his own. He lived during a great time for discoveries, new herbs and chemical compounds appeared to be discovered daily. The future held so many new possibilities for those seeking alchemical knowledge that all one had to do was reach out and grab it, which he did assiduously. Yet, instead of searching for fame and glory as many other initiated did, he chose to remain in his post in the village. He found meaning there, purpose, he had a reason to use his knowledge. Many will argue if what he did was wrong or right, if he truly had reach his full potential. All I know is that he was happy, and that that was enough for him.
