you must burn brighter than ever
“Seems like they’re easy to get and you can do a shit ton with ‘em?” By way of logical explanations, which Melita was often short on, but willing to go to bat for her favored stones. But yeah – it did seem the deities revered them for certain obligations. Maybe they also enjoyed shiny objects. The Honeybee wouldn’t blame them.
Opting to hop along at her usual content pace, and with Fangorn occasionally swinging his vines around as another rock was found, the smuggler would pause and collect it in her bucket. Listening to Flora’s answer though gave her more than a pause, grin widening at the potential parameters of brazen and ridiculous antics. “Ooh, yeah. I wonder if you could get some magical lighting in it.” Rigged right at the front so everyone on board would always be able to see. She’d be more likely to be spotted herself, but maybe Flora didn’t mind that.
“And obviously. I just beat Hadama at chicken the other day,” with a casual handwave, because it was fun and she’d one hundred percent do it again. Bets and winnings sounded even better.
