with reyes and nieve assigned tasks that would take them from the territory for the next several days, erzulie turned her mind to her quiet watercolor daughter. she was without nieve's inquisitiveness, without reyes' latent ferocity. she must too be gone, but the harlot thought carefully of what she might ask.
she had given but one reason to herself for why her children must leave the plateau, but erzulie was nothing if not careful, overly cautious to a fault. who knew how many wolves the sisters had gathered? she would not have her cubs here if conflict returned.
decided, erzulie called for @Clementine, two-toned eyes shimmering. perhaps she should have asked that the girl gather the bark, but too late for that now.

she heeds the call swiftly, abandoning the squirrel she'd been chasing as it leaped fluidly through the barren canopy. it would hardly make a good homeboy anyway, she admitted; it was fast and mean and had no desire to be anywhere near her. she was beginning to consider that, perhaps, she was not fit for a homeboy. it was a rather despairing thought, though she tried not to dwell on it. 

"mama?" she calls as she swings into sight, tail wagging easily behind her as she moves to place a gladened kiss on her mother's cheek.

"clementine." she returned the kiss, smiled into her daughter's eyes. "you look happy." she had no inkling of her child's search for a homeboy, or she might have had a more encouraging word. 
"i've a task for you, dlo lapli," erzulie intoned, gaze shining to see how the girl might react. "it will take you out de territory a while."

at her mother's greeting, a smile spreads across her features in answer. it does not seem right to share her homeboy troubles, not when her mother has very obviously called her here for a reason. a moment more, and erzulie reveals a mission; clem's auds press forward in sharp interest, already moving to quell whispered anxieties that promise she'll fail, surely. "ok," she responds, voice light and glad despite. "what would you want me to do, mama?"

"i need a special kind of lichen for de coming season," erzulie explained, her mind churning an answer quickly. "we are not near to many mountains, and dis plant grows in caves close to water. you not be needin' to go too far, but it will be a bit of a journey." she watched clementine as she spoke, wondering what her daughter would make of it.
they spoke for some time, and then parted ways, erzulie filled with a great maternal satisfaction to have her child home once more.
