For being Leafchange in Halo, the day was unusually calm and warm. The sun peaked from behind clouds every now and then, shining down on the Citadel walls and making the ice glitter. Noah took a deep breath. Moving to a secluded place in the Citadel, he prepared to make his offering. The hunter knelt down and set his bag at his side, opening it carefully and placing the fruits he and Delphine had traded for in Torchline. Although they were dried to preserve their eating abilities, their colors still shone brightly: mangos, papayas, and pineapple were still brilliant, fiery colors. Next to the dried fruits, Noah placed four small paintings Delphine had made. They were each on leaves she had gathered from the Torchline jungle, but they depicted what he suspected was her view from her Hollowed Grounds cave in each season. He thought they were beautiful, and captured well what Frey tended.
"Frey, I offer these gifts to you in hopes that you will find favor with my people -- please, help us fortify our home to sustain life." He prayed, quietly, and honestly, and true.
