Emberwood the summer of our discontent

set the morning after this. @Star and/or @Calcifer are welcome to jump in!

Marble knew what she wanted to do the moment she woke up that morning. She wiggled her way out of her sleeping mother's embrace, blinked the sleep from her eyes, and wandered away from Sagtannet's temporary camp (with her favorite rock in her jaws of course).

As she strolled through the woods she'd briefly stare at the trees she came across. They were very eye-catching, but not interesting enough to stop for. Marble wanted to study the greatest one of them all. 

After passing by a few dozen aspens, she spots it. The One. She didn't know what exactly drew her towards it. Maybe it was the color or the angle. Maybe it was the way the bark looked slightly different from the rest. Whatever it may be, it was mesmerizing. Marble approached the tree and ran her tiny paw down the trunk.
