Fantasy Two Worlds Collide

[FangAndOzy]

Rowan smirked in amusement at his suggestion, but was glad Sarah spoke up. She didn't feel like making a sarcastic remark at the moment. She was slowly falling apart at the seams but she was not so sure it was slow enough. "A greenhouse?" She asks Sarah as they walk. She loved gardens.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah smirked back at her as they turned the corner and stopped, letting her hand go and nodding, "Yeah. My brother works wit them to help with the healers. That's usually what happens when you are an orphan. You are late to pick what you want and fall behind. It;'s a good place to relax."

 

[FangAndOzy]

"I certainly hope so. I have always found gardens to be a place of refuge." She says quietly. "Is Adam your brother? Or someone else?" She asks quietly.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"I certainly hope so. I have always found gardens to be a place of refuge." She says quietly. "Is Adam your brother? Or someone else?" She asks, curious.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"I certainly hope so. I have always found gardens to be a place of refuge." She says quietly. "Is Adam your brother? Or someone else?" She asks, curious.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah smirked, "Adam is Emery's best friend, Anthony is my big brother." she corrected, "He is training to be a master healer, he is better at fighting, but he loves to heal. So obviously I am very proud of him."

 

[FangAndOzy]

"Well he sounds like a good guy." She says with a smile. She was excited to meet him. He sounded like someone she would have been friends with in her...old life. She bit her lip and clenched her hands into fists. Focusing on the pain in her hands as her fingernails dig in slightly to her palms. "Why did Emery come to see my father?" She asks.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah sighed, "A lot of the warriors are being separated, he was supposed to take command of one, Emery as his second." she told her as she lead the way to the greenhouse where Anthony was.

 

[FangAndOzy]

She just nodded a little. But then as the entered the greenhouse she froze. It smelled exactly like her mother's garden. A garden she spent countless hours helping her with. A garden where her father had brought countless exotic flowers. She clenched her jaw, trying hard not to break down when she was doing so well. But it was difficult.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah stopped, "Are you okay?" she asked her, as she noticed her change in domainer. She could hear Anthony's deep voice giving commands as he went through everything.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"It...I..." She started, her voice cracking a little. "It smells like my mother's garden..." She starts, frowning some. "I'm really alone now," she says, her breathing becoming quicker as she fought for control. Everything was starting to sink in. All she had seen was finally becoming reality. A reality she did not want.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah sighed, frowning sympathetically before she wrapped her arms around her, "It's okay. I don't know what it's like to have parents but I know it's hard to lose your family."


Anthony walked over and looked at them, "Hmmm, everything okay?" he asked.

 

[FangAndOzy]

She fought hard not to cry, that could wait until she was alone. And when she heard Anthony come over she startled a little, though it helped some. She didn't trust herself to speak just yet so instead she just nodded. She gave Sarah an appreciative glance and then pulled back slightly to look to Anthony.

 

[Matreania]

Sarah jumped a little surprised before she smiled, going to her brother as she pulled away from Rowan, to hug him, "Everything is fine." she told him, before pulling away, she motioned to Rowan, "This is Rowan, I thought she might like to have a little hand in eth garden. She likes art, so you can see why I would think that."


Anthony listened to her before his attention moved to Rowan and he smiled, nodding, "Okay, yeah. Most of the plants here are for healing, some are poisonous and some are used for more restraining reasons. It all depends on what you want to do." he told her and thought of where to start, "Come on, I have something to show you." he told her before he pulled away from Sarah to lead the way.

 

[FangAndOzy]

She looked between Sarah and Anothony uncertainly and then nodded. She moved to follow Anthony, wanting to see what all was around here. Wanting to see all the kinds of plants that were here.

 

[Matreania]

Anthony stopped by a rocky part of the garden, "This place is built around the caves that are in this mountain." he explained, as he motioned to the one group of flowers in the rocks. "That is a flower we still can't pick a name for." he told her, looking at Rowan, "It started growing after the end of the last war, just before your father left," he smirked, nodding so she knew that he knew that he knew her father. He smiled at the flower, "It's been there since it grows from the rock" he told her and smiled, "A hard time and it still finds time to be beautiful and innocent. It's like hope."

 

[FangAndOzy]

Rowan moved over to the flower and crouched beside it. She very gently stroked the petals and then smiled a little. "It's beautiful." She says quietly. She wished she could help him think of a name for it, but she couldn't focus on something like that right now. She got to her feet and looked to him. "I can't wait to hear what kind of name you come up with."

 

[Matreania]

Anthony chuckled, "Well, right now it's more a symbol. We are in a no winning situation. If we win the war we are still shadows, possible banished to enter the human world again because if this. On the other hand, if we don't win, humans die." He sighed, looking at Sarah, then back at Rowan, "For now, naming it isn't important. But we have a lot of suggestions from everyone, while the war is going on. Just a bit of fun."

 

[FangAndOzy]

"a distraction from all the bad stuff." She says in understanding. She sighed. "May I see more flowers?" She asks. "Unless of course you're busy."

 

[Matreania]

Anthony glanced at Sarah, "Emery will be here for you soon, but I have work to do, so as long as Anthony isn't busy."


Anthony smirked, knowing that it was just an excuse for her to let Rowan have some peace, "Yeah, I'm free for the moment."


Sarah smiled and nodded, kissing her brother's cheek, "I will see you at dinner." then she smiled at Rowan, placing her hand on her arm, "Everything will be okay, you are safe, I'm sure that is what your father wanted." she told her before leaving


Anthony smirked, "So, what do you want to see next?"

 

[FangAndOzy]

Rowan nodded at Sarah in thanks and then looked to Anthony once she was gone. "Everything?" She says with a shy smile. "Especially the things that are rare. Though everything here is unfamiliar in a sense. I want to see what's rare or newly discovered."

 

[Matreania]

Anthony chuckled, "I know exactly what to show you." he said, motioning her to follow him. "It's hard to grow and even more to keep alive when you pluck them."

 

[FangAndOzy]

"Really?" She asks. She was excited to see the flower. If nothing else to keep her mind off everything else.

 

[Matreania]

Anthony chuckled, nodding, "It's actually a healing plant, the only that can heal a wound on it's own. The problem is, it has to grow with the poison that can kill instantly."

 

[FangAndOzy]

Rowan raised an eyebrow, very interested. "Really? So you have the poisons too?" She asks. If she was stuck here then maybe she'd learn more about the plants.
