Bramblepoint Once there was a way to get back home

this can be a cameo! Whichever <3

She had a few more to transplant. The garden in Mereo was going well, but there were a couple she wasn't sure about moving. The soil felt wrong, and she wanted to take more with her to be sure they'd grow. She brought the same tattered hide and heaped it with dirt before moving a few of the sprouts. That was when she felt the feather.

Fennec froze. It was probably a coincidence, but of course her mind went there first. She'd spent more time with ravens but Bronco always preferred owls. She'd had some of these a while back, gifts, but she'd left them behind along with everything else. She should leave this one too.

But when she lifted her haul to head towards home, the feather was gone, tucked along the edge of the dirt she carried. No one had to know what it was, or why she had it. She couldn't bring herself to leave it behind.
