Distant Memories

Within the pile of leaves, Aia could hear chittering as though they were getting yelled at. The girl popped her head out of the pile and watched a bunch of little creatures shooing them away. The girls ears tucked and she slid out of the pile to press against Vanille's front legs. "Are we in trouble?" She didn't understand why they would be in trouble, but it seemed like they needed to move on.

The pair continued down the path until Aia spied huge, orange globes laying all over the ground. "What are these?!" Some of the round gourds were even larger than she was. It was incredible to see. She circled a few of them, giving them a sniff and appreciating the varying colors and shapes.
