You're so pretty it hurts

Light, prancing steps carried her through the Veteran's Plateau while her tail wagged gently behind her. She was carrying a large leaf she had fashioned into a pouch of sorts just for the purposes of gathering the bits and bobs she was happening to find here. The sun made some pieces of metal glimmer from where they were hiding in the dust and dirt and she had made it her personal mission to collect ever pretty piece she found. They weren't all pretty of course - some of them were rusted or were too big for her purposes, but every once in a while she'd find a thin piece of chain, a small curved bit of metal here and there, or even a rare bit of jewelry. None of them seemed to be in whole, complete shape, but that was fine by her. She could make them into something else... maybe something as lovely as she had seen Cairo wearing at the festival. She sighed longingly as she thought of the beautiful garment he had been wearing when they met. She looked down at her leaf pouch that was now laying mostly open in front of her and gazed at all the trinkets she had gathered so far. She thought she might have enough here to get started, but she really wished she could find something with some color. Perhaps if she could find something with some inlayed stones or something that had been painted... but maybe she was being too hopeful for her treasure hunt. |
