How lovely are your branches

Vail followed after Notch as he played guide for herself and her aunt. Vail didn't have as close of a relationship with the woman as her sister did, but she knew her own mother had also loves her and she was the closest to Motif she would get. She missed her mom a lot, especially these days with the wedding so close. She would have given anything for her to have been there with them to celebrate. 

Rhythm had come though, and she did share some characteristics with the old Destruction woman. They talked briefly about some herbs and the best ways to prepare them, and Vail found herself honestly enjoying the morning. She didn't expect Notch to call them over though. While most of the trees here were deciduous, this was obviously an evergreen. Vail could kind of make out the different branch structure, and the tantalizing scent it gave off. Though she couldn't quite make it out there was something else about it. 

"Not quite, but it's definitely a spruce." She tried to get closer for a better look but she tripped over something at her feet.
