Jade Fern Grove it's burning me up inside
a determination so powerful it could turn the sky storm black

for @Dirge, finally; thanks for the patience.

She was going home, finally.  She was doing no good here in the Hollow; later today, she'd say her goodbyes — mostly for @Terance and @Indra — and then she'd be on her way.  It was hard to reconcile with, so she slipped past the borders to enjoy her last day away.  Maybe she'd leave and end up regretting it.  Maybe it was better this way, with her family probably thinking she's dead or worse, a traitor.  To know she's alive and not coming back, well...

She trails along the fern grove and nestles somewhere beneath the slow-moving stream.  Winter has frozen its edges; she's surprised the whole thing isn't frosted over.  The sound is comforting, distracting.  Maybe if she's lucky she'll be able to doze off, or at least space out.
ring the bells that still can ring
forget your perfect offering
there is a crack in everything
that's how the light gets in
