lay me down

She had found the plant easily with the help of her new little friend in the willows and had slowly dug the plant up from the roots, trying to keep as much in tact as possible. She had then gently grasped the plant as close to the base as possible without puncturing the stem and slowly began walking it back home. It had taken her quite some time, tottering slowly so she wouldn't shake the dirt off the roots. She would enter their new home as slowly as she had approached it, having already scoped out the perfect place to settle the plant, and heading to the more southern edge of their boarders where there was less trees and more open soil. There she would gently place the plant on the ashen ground before beginning to dig, going a bit deeper then needed before slowly picking the plant up again and placing it within the hole. It was smaller, probably only a few years old, but it was a beautiful specimen and honestly her favourite strain. Dione slowly filled in the plant, pulling some of the up turned dirt in so it would stay standing upright but not completely filling it in in case her daughter might want to move it. Stepping back a smile would slowly slip over her lips before head would tip back and she would let out a howl for her daughter. Hopefully she would like her present.
