Straw in the Wind

Ulmaria recovered quickly from being startled, and carefully maneuvered away from a smelly puddle so she could better face her sister. She supposed there was some wisdom in having a partner to explore with. "Ok! It'll be funner having someone along." Ulmaria bounced forward, beckoning her sister along so they could keep exploring while they talked. Aoede mentioned she liked the swamp. Ulmaria glanced around and shrugged.

"It's ok, I guess. I think I still liked the range the best…" Ulmaria sighed. She knew there was no use stewing about it, but she couldn't help herself. She bounced over a root winding through her path. Nearby a frog croaked and lept into the swampy water with a splash.
