Blackfeather Woods congratulations, beautiful

@Shivali - set in uhhh the Redgrove I guess, dated like May 15

it was a strange place. Tahani had wandered quietly through the woods--when she wasn't glued to her siblings' sides--seeing all there was to be seen. it was mostly a dark tangle of trees, though there was a swamp in one part of the forest (she wasn't so fond of it). there also seemed to be a network of tunnels underneath, though she hadn't worked up the courage to explore the dimly-lit passageways quite yet.

this place was a splash of color, a vibrant red amidst the drab background of a deciduous forest. the cawing of ravens was ever-present, the black birds calling from their perches in the trees, which were thinner here--allowing for more sunlight to come through. though it was warmer here than in the shade, Tahani basked in the sunlight, sitting down on her haunches and closing her eyes for a brief moment.

there was work to be done. there were young children, a mother-to-be, and Siarut's injuries still needed to be tended to. she had found caches stuffed with various herbs and remedies; perhaps a search of the tunnels would yield more results. it would make sense to keep the plants in a cool, dry place. but first, rest. the fervor of their voyage from the north and the stresses of settling in an unfamiliar place had finally settled upon Tahani's shoulders, and she was suddenly exhausted.
