Fairly middle in the poor section of Eluria, easily accessible for its inhabitants, stands a dependance for All Souls. The building itself is non-descript from the outside, with a small sign displaying its name and function:
Once through the door the visitor finds himself in a large room with some altars to the more well-known gods. The limited amount of space prevents from putting more altars in. To the right there's a hall leading to the kitchen. The church provides food for the dwellers of the Slums, which is served out on the right side of the central room. On the left side there's some halls leading to a small office and some quarters for the novices who're on duty here. The church provides basic healing, free of charge. Any required help beyond that will be transferred to All Souls in the city-centre, because of the limited resources here.
Head: Haglath Lhadbelin, priest of Corellon.

*Mere moments after the church is complete, it is swamped with the weak, the weary, the downtrodden, and the sick. Thousands of people try making their way into the building, trying to find food, shelter, and a way to cure their sick children, thei broken legs, their injured selves.*

+Kartio blinks. It was worse than he thought. He assists with the healing as much as possible, eventually running out of spells and using bandages and what he was taught at the temple. He was pretty sure Julia would just be thrilled when he finally got back with the report.+

*The novices on duty do the best they can in helping all the people flooding the church. It helps that they aren't easily abashed, and can stand their ground. One novice halfway does a runner to the main Church, coming back with some more supplies.
Eventually, they manage to persuade the people to ease off with the message that they'll still be here tomorrow, and will still be there to help them.*

+Kartio wakes up after a long, long day of healing. Pelor... that was a tough day. Some of those people were really bitter about being turned out again, while others were just sad. One came to blows with one of the priests before collapsing... they were taking care of that guy now. This place was really depressing.
He stood and stretched, putting his armor back on before heading to the All Souls to report.+

*they walk into the building, relieving the tired-out novices, restocking the supplies etc. A semblance of order is being kept by the large novices, who also help out treating the people. Julia despairs a bit at the sheer number of petitioners. .o0(Tyr, give me strength.) and then gets to work.*

She watches the church. That's new. She smiles. Someone is finally helping. She walks in and taps the first novice/cleric/whoever she encounters on the shoulder.
Heya! I want to help, what do I do?

*The wind picks up, a quiet song on the breeze. Mina appears and both wind and song dies down as she seeks out Julia.*
Julia? Julia! Julia!

*the novice tapped on the shoulder by Charith does a doubletake and almost drops what he's holding.*
Sorry miss, you took me by surprise there. Here, take this and bring it to the kitchen. I'll come back with more food.
*he holds what he's holding out to Charith, mostly packages of food: vegetables and such. If she takes it he goes back to get some more supplies.*

Julia!*still a bit groggy from the work the day before, Julia walks out of the quarters. (well, quarters...couple of rooms with army-style bunkbeds) She pays her quick respects to Tyr, and goes over to Mina.* Mina, hey! What's up?

After getting directions, she brings the food there, and helps out as much as she can with anything else they trust her with. She drops things here and there, but overall she's surprisingly handy (for her usual self) when really needed.
