Background:
Born in one of the many valleys in the Alps, she was named Verena by her parents, after an early saint that lived in the general area. But her Gift manifested at an early age, and everyone shunned her, so she became a wild child, roaming the wilderness, speaking to animals, and finding sustenance from the wild.
As she grew older, and people witnessed her calming down a wild horse, word got around, and a local witch named Philomena came, and took her under her wing, teaching her the art of herbalism, and healing people. She stayed with her for a couple of years, and learned much, but when she refused to learn how to brew poisons, she was thrown out.
While most people would be lost if kicked out in the middle of nowhere, with little clothes, and no food, her skills allowed her to survive on her own, and remembering the reactions of her fellow humans, she was in no hurry to return to be with them, so she found a valley where she could be free, and live in peace.
It was about a year later that a traveling Bjornaer, by the name of Meinard. Recognizing her Gift, and her skills with animals and herbalism, he offered to teach her magic, but she thought he was joking, and said that she would agree, if he could prove to her that his magic can outshine her when it comes to her skills. Impressed that he can speak with any animal, take the form of a gentle bear, and not only gather herbs, but make them grow even out of season, she became his apprentice.
