The Trees Bleed

Location: Dragon's Blood Grove

Duchess was slowly retracing old steps in Auster, honestly wondering if she would ever return here again. But it seemed now that everywhere would remind her about her happy days or times with Indigo. Whether it was the most southern lands of Auster, or the most northern of Boreas. She never believed there would be a brighter day for her. Indigo had given her life again, and she had completely shattered anything that was good.

When she looked up from her stroll, she hadn't even noticed walking into the arid lands here in Auster. She too had traveled only in passing through the grove, but never stopped to see what if anything the land had to offer. In her distant view, she spotted the large blue boy she had met recently and she couldn't help the smile on her maw which was a rare true occurrence. Approaching him she called out quietly, "Hello again, Ricin."
