Seren
"... and I knew you had a shrine here, but I had no idea it was this beautiful." As Seren chatted away, she kept looking around at the lanterns and the little chimes. The grass may be wilting and the flowers drooping under the season's heat, but it did little to take away from the delightful nature of the location. She swept some dust from the columns, and knelt at the center of the arch to start lining up the fruits of her labor.
A piece of coral from Torchline, pinkish and gnarled. A chunk of ice from Halo; it steamed faintly in the warm air, and Seren hoped it wouldn't melt before her mother could collect it. Peppermint bark from the Gratewood brought a smile to her lips - she wondered what Sah was up to now - and was soon joined by a big jar where a freckled white lily had been carefully contained.
But the bowl of dried petals was placed ahead of all the rest; unrelated in some ways, while vastly more important in others.
"I brought you a gift, like I promised. See? It's a potpurri of Longheat! Maeve helped me make it. We had some trouble finding good flowers here, but I think it came out alright in the end. They smell quite lovely; especially this honey rose.
"Oh, and I found all the ingredients you needed, too. I was a little anxious while gathering the dreamdust flower, though in the end no one was hurt, thankfully."
Leaning back on her heels, Seren looked around, to make sure everything was neat and tidy; putting an arm around Umbra as the dragon pressed in against her leg, she smiled up at the sky, where the first stars of the evening had just begun to kindle.
"See, Mother? I told you I would be quicker this time."
