Anna let out a whine. She certainly didn't want to be stuck like this. Atleast in her true form she'd have an easier time tracking down a hive. "Isn't there something you could do to help me turn into that one?"Anna asked.

"I have not the power to do so." the shaman said "This is change you must do yourself."
The shaman then placed more strange items into the bowl, humming softly as the clear liquid changed color.

Anna whined, flopping to the ground. "Well, then how do I turn into that?"She asked.

The shaman didn't answer, continuing to mix more items into the bowl. The liquid became darker in color, like dark brown mud. She dipped her hand into the bowl, chanting a few words as she swirled the bowl's contents. When she was finished, the shaman pulled out of the muddy liquid a strange, marble-sized ball.
"This will help in getting you to walk for a few hours," the shaman said "It can not change your shape."
She placed the ball in front of Anna and searched inside a basket cluttered with many papers, skins and beaded bracelets. A weathered map was pulled out, its edges falling off in flakes. The shaman laid it out and pointed to several island chains.
"To find your true shape is not easy. However, if there is a particular direction you wish to go, it may help in finding it." she said "There is North, South, East and West."

Anna blinked, confused. She poked at the mud ball with her paw. "How's this thing gonna help me walk? Do I have to eat it or something?"Anna asked, looking at the mud ball, still confused. "I mean, mud usually makes walking harder because it's thick and muddy. IT also messes up my fur."She added.

The woman took the crude map that the shaman handed to her and looked it over. As the shaman placed the bowl on the side, she nodded.
"Yes. You eat it." she said
Roshan although confused at this, decided not to say anything. It was a strange way of healing and aiding in the process of walking.

Anna blinked, looking a the mud ball. She sniffed of it, before sticking her tongue out to taste it. She gagged and recoiled. "It tastes awful!"Anna said. "I think I'd rather just be carried...."She added.

"Just swallow it." Roshan said
She did not want to carry girl-beast around village, let alone the grassy plains beyond it.

Anna whimpered, looking at the mud ball. She whimpered. She didn't want to be ditched again, but she also didn't want to eat the mud ball. She whined, slowly reaching down and picking the mud ball up. She tossed it into her mouth and swallowed, gagging on its awful taste.

"The effects should set in few minutes," the shaman said "After that you are free to leave."

"How do I know when it starts working?"Anna asked.

"A tingling sensation in the joints and bursts of energy." the shaman replied

Anna blinked. She certainly didn't feel anything. "It's not working...."She grumbled. Shortly after she jumped, surprised when her limbs suddenly started tingling. "That feels really really weird!"She yelped in shock.

"Now take a few steps back, slowly." the shaman instructed
There were many more instructions given in this lesson, as the shaman kept the girl-beast moving. It was vital that Anna learned the basics immediately before she left the village. Roshan watched the girl-beast, having folded the map and stood up.

Whilst she was doing better than she had been, Anna was still having plenty of trouble coordinating her legs, having fallen over several times. But after a short while Anna seemed to get the hang of walking in her new form.
