Fireflies and Flora

Briar walked out to the Weeping Woods with Lia, keeping close to her as they ventured just outside of pack lands. It was getting pretty late, the darkness creeping in quickly. It seemed like night came earlier and lasted longer these days as winter progressed, but with how last winter had been she had never really understood the seasons and how they were supposed to be. Either way, she didn't want Lia going out on her own, but she also didn't want to do anything that might discourage her from her studies. She had the passion for healing that Briar had long wished she possessed and she was enjoying watching her handmaiden experience these new things. She was excited to see what she learned from Syanna when The Hallows Seneschal came to visit.

They walked out into the willows and Briar kept an eye on their surroundings, her head tilting slightly as she spotted a cluster of fireflies just past some of the trees. She didn't have time to really watch them though because Lia pointed out some marigold and she turned her attention toward the familiar golden flower. However there was something strange about it and her brows pulled together as Lia pointed it out as well, proving that it wasn't just a trick of the light. "Huh... Yeah, I see it too. Marigolds are one of the few plants I do actually remember and none of them ever glowed like this..." She brought a paw toward the flower, extending a careful claw to pull at some of the petals and she watched as the iridescent glow shimmered and shifted with the movement.
