Ocean's Breath Plateau and so amazed them all

for @Brook <3 since these two haven't had a 1:1 thread in a while

things were moving along quite well on the plateau. they'd gotten off to a slow start, sure, but more souls had joined them with time. it took patience—and aditya was more than old enough to know the value of patience. hell, it had taken more than patience to get him this far in life.

so, how was his daughter handling all these changes? he sought her out this afternoon, trotting across the open expanse of the plateau with his eyes peeled. he knew she was a shy girl and stuck to the shadows more often than not.

still, he let out a soft, undulating call for her alone, knowing that brook would heed it. shy as she might be, aditya knew she was fond of him, trusted only him. . .and while that warmed his heart, he worried for her when it came his time to leave this world. what would she do without him?

he would have to send her back to her aunt easy when the end seemed near.
