I carried my own ashes to the mountains
They might’ve been less somber since the last time they’d spoken to the Nature aspect of Frey, but certainly no less exhausted. Restoration had been key – and in time, minor rejuvenations had taken shape. Individuals rescued from the makeshift bay, shelters harbored in place amidst the Palace, infirmaries restocked and restored, and hordes of their own people taking, sharing, and repairing the world around them. It was how Halovians had always been – in that unrelenting, determined spirit, and their Wardens were just as persistent.
And as always, there was more to be done.
With some reconstruction well underway, and threats looming in the distance, they couldn’t remain idle or still in advancements of their kingdom. None of them were complacent, and Halo shouldn’t have been either – so the Wardens advanced upon the shrine once more. The Sword made a mental note to return at a later time for Safrin’s sake, but the bundle in his hands was solely for Frey. With fruits snagged from the greenhouse, ample cream, and a bundle of flowers tucked amidst the porcelain and ivory bowl, he hoped it would be enough. Evie always brought something fitting and wondrous as well, and with a slight bump to her shoulder, he bowed his head, beginning the deep rumble in his chest. “Frey, we are always grateful for every opportunity you grant. Perhaps you would be willing to aid Halo once more.”
A brief pause, a long slow breath, before he began again. “We would like to strengthen the Citadel walls.” Protective and sheltering, they loomed large as the first defensive system, besides the weather, for their world. But they’d also been rendered damaged multiple times, and to remain structurally sound, all encompassing, before any perilous efforts was a must. From there, he glanced at the Evergreen, trusting her to fill in the details.

This is an RQ request for Halo from Nature Frey to strengthen the Citadel walls/with a rebound ability (to be turned on/off when applicable).
