Tackling the leaves

Memento gave a small nod to Ezra as he took the rake that she offered him. She was sure that they would be at this task for a while as she moved over to the elderberry bushes. Handling the rake in her jaws she had to adjust it a couple of times before she got it into a comfortable position. It was still a bit awkward, but she was sure it would help her with the leaves. It seemed made for gathering them up! She gripped it tightly, making sure it wouldn’t slip, and then she began to move it across the leaves and ground. The rake caught the leaves, dragging them in the direction she was moving, and Memento’s gaze held a light of delight.

Her movements were steady, and before long what was a small, barely starting pile had become larger, growing in size as she dragged the leaves out from the bushes. She had stopped paying attention to the time it was taking them, and enjoying the crunch of the leaves as she moved them. It was a soothing sound, almost rhythmic after a while. Hearing Ezra, however, she set her rake down and lifted her head to see where he was through the trees. “So far so good! These berry bushes are looking much clearer now. How about you?” She grinned at this.

“Maybe we could haul the leaves off somehow, so they don’t get blown back under the bushes. There’s more than I realized though, so we’d need something pretty big…” She furrowed her brow. Had she seen anything in the Hallows that could help with that?
