I had that event too, Queengamer... and I had my apprentice find another teacher. She ran away, gained farming skills, but dislikes learning.
I had one. I can't remember exactly what it said, but it was a crystal vial found on the beach with a sweet smelling liquid. I let my villager drink it and he turned into a kid! Lost my adept farmer and had to pick another one!
Just had the same event, and chose to take it back to the village. Came up with a fertility potion using Rose, Lotus, Lotus.
