@Aarkron <3
Oksana rose before sunrise. She washed her face and shook her coat clean. But she still couldn't bring herself to eat. She told herself she wasn't hungry, as she walked out into the chilly morning. Frosty mist wafted around her ankles, and a light breeze drifted inland from the coast. She could hear the trees popping as they thawed, and birds sang to each other in the silvery-blue sky.
She thought to find @Ragnar, to ask him where she could find Aarkron. She would be useful after all, she'd decided. Feeling a little of her old stubborn self returning. But she lost her nerve at the last moment and went down into the valley instead. She supposed she could gather some useful herbs to dry if she still wanted to do something worthwhile. And maybe… She bit her lip. Maybe she could find Aarkron later.
“божа крівця, нечуй вітер, лопу́х,” she murmured, looking carefully and walking slow. She didn’t know their English names, but she knew what these and other helpful things looked like. Yellow flowers, spotted leaves, silver-purple burs. But deeper in the valley, in a boggy meadow marsh where the snowmelt had saturated the ground, she found a trio of tall slender flowers — not on her list — that made her smile. She put her nose to the little purple petals and breathed deep, thinking of handsome blushing faces and silly children's songs.
