Let The Shadows Fall Behind You

*Meadow* · 10-06-2020, 04:16 PM

Meadow was relaxing, deeper and deeper into the waters, only her head is peaking above the bubbly spring now. The smell of the hot spring hides the scent of the approaching wolf but the sound of rustling draws her attention away from the moment of leisure and has her pushing her body up to get a better look. A black and brown female catches sight of the small healer and comes toward the soaking Meadow. A smile appears as the wolf speaks, giving her name as Percy, and Meadow immediately clambers up out of the water to better greet Percy.

Dripping wet but not wanting to shake out her coat and get Percy wet, Meadow opts to stand there, smiling brightly but looking like a drowned rat. Sure, her fur is soaked but her spirit is not dampened as Percy offers her the salmonberries that wrapped carefully in a scrap of hide. Dipping her head is gratefulness, Meadow brings her head back up and says, “Thank you so much Percy! My name is Meadow and I promise to put these to good use. Are you interested in being a healer?” Meadow asks the question since Percy seems to have some knowledge of plants.

Deciding that she should take the berries inside and store them, Meadow offers, “Would you like to come in and see the healing hut I made?” Tail wags slowly, proud of the structure she had made. Hopefully, she isn’t coming off as too boastful or anything. Ducking her head sheepishly, Meadow adds, “Well, I did have some help. Rigel helped me with ties and stuff.” The great horned owl that is sitting nearby on the roof of her hut hoots his agreement. Guilty smile hangs on her lips as Meadow corrects herself, “Okay. Rigel and I built the hut.” Shooting a glance to the owl she asks it, “Happy?” and Rigel hoots cheerfully is acknowledgement.

Turning back to Percy, Meadow giggles and says, “Owls. There is just no pleasing some of them.” before the giggles turn into a soft laugh as Rigel hoots his annoyance at her. Eyes sparkle with humor as Meadow smiles warmly at Percy.
