you must burn brighter than ever
Melita could only sigh when nothing appeared – from either herself, dragon, or gourd. It’d become a customary thing to leave the Greatwood wholly empty-handed, and now she was left to wonder where else to peer and pierce before heading home.
Another approached her though, likely wondering just what the fuck she was doing (a valid question some days), and striving not to appear like a bristling, disappointed hag today, the Honeybee arched her brow, glancing at the other woman before taking a long breath, shrugging her shoulders. “Oh, no. I was looking for flowers. Nothing here today either.” The truth might’ve been a dangerous proposition nowadays – she had no way of knowing if this stranger was a friend or foe, how pressed or close she was to the tides of the Family’s might; but then again, Melita was very confident in her own abilities. She wouldn’t need Air to make a dent in anything. Thereafter, she gestured to the stairs, the long sweeping motions towards the natural wonder of other things. “The Observatory up there is nice though.”
