Finding herself back in her usual routine before falling ill - Reiko returned to the Glacier Garden to check on the herbs that were left to dry... perhaps a little too long now that she could return to them. Padding across the icy fields of salty frost, the Empress found herself in love with the tundra garden all over again as she glanced around its many herbs and late summer berries just ripe for the picking.
It was hard not to feel disappointed to find the herbs she had left to dry now blackened and rotten with neglect - it was to be expected and yet she held onto hope that they would still be here waiting for her to return. Unfortunately that was not the case. Tossing them aside to leave the drying stone Reiko used for her herbs, she ventured off again to pluck some new bundles to bring back tomorrow.
In the meantime... she would indulge in some berries before they too would rot away. Raspberries and blackberries, they stained her pristine maw like a child incapable of keeping themselves clean. She would simply pluck them straight off the plant, letting the other aging berries paint her face as they brushed against her muzzle. A sweet treat for later when she would clean her face to return home... for now, she was enjoying nature's treat.
