Sun Mote Copse Garden of the Hesperides

Sequoia had heard the story from Wildfire already, but she listened intently anyway. The stories lined up exactly (though that wasn't surprising), and Seq grinned. She was so glad that Wildfire and Wraen had met and gotten along well enough that now they were both in the same pack with her. It had been a wild ride the past few months, but Sequoia was incredibly happy about all of it. Things seemed to be falling into place really, really well.

Hearing that her own presence had played a hand in Wraen's decision warmed her heart even more. I don't really remember, either, Sequoia admitted sheepishly. That seemed like a lifetime ago. Considering Seq hadn't even hit one whole year alive, it kind of was a lifetime ago in her head.
