The Young Druids Apprentice is often a lost child or seduced by the wild world and inspired to dwell in forests and other secluded wilderness locations. They intended to protect the natural world from monsters and the encroachment of civilization but have much to learn. Some young apprentices come from cities, town and tribal settlements. Some have the previlage of mentorship but as the druid life is often a lonly one, they often learn on their own how to heal the sick, pray to animal spirits, and provide spiritual guidance.
