It was late, and Darling Mine was tired. However, he was also determined. Very determined! To prove his worth again, no matter how .... surprisingly dank and smelly that last glade was."Last time I found... was found... by one so blessed to have blessed me - it was here... I think..." He had said that at least three times, squinting at trees that were starting to all look alike.
Refusing to give up, he sighed and took another overgrown path. "This will be it, I will not fail!"
Thinking to himself: No matter how tangled and stick and leaf filled my poor tail gets!
Guardian of Life felt a very...intersting pull and she followed it curiously. Excitement, nervousness this was all things she was used to encountering. But the tired determination was a new one.It took her a moment to make sure she had the right kin, before she made herself known with a light clearing of her throat. No sense in startling him after all.
