Northstar Vale I'll Follow the Sun

She remained in the soon to be blossoming forest, the buds were still green but the tip were slowly gaining colours by the day. She looked forward to the day that they would open and show their beauty to the world. The empress spent a lot of time here, picturing what the trees would look like, when they would blossom, she painted a vivid picture in her imagination. 

Vespera's trail caught her attention as she wandered by the creek, taking a few laps of the frosty spring water, the cloaked woman's scent was on the rock that was just out of her nose's reach. What was Vespera doing around here? With a wag of her tail, she followed Vespera's scent toward a little cave... At first she had reservations about entering, the dark cave looking spooky from the outside...

Stepping in, she found Vespera soon enough after the light began to filter in from a hole in the ceiling. Frosty ears perking up at the sight. What did you find here? The answer was pretty obvious, but Reiko had a hard time wrapping her head around it. The place was breathtaking.
