Stavanger Bay goldjoy

The more she stayed here, the more she was certain her dreams had led her here. To this place, to this bay, a sanctuary close to home, but far enough.

It was here, she thought, that she’d like to stay in the end. Strong sons and noble daughters would be reared on these sands, and those who wanted it could find refuge here, among their number. Her anaa’s vibrant traditions wreathed with the salt and pooling ocean water of her husband’s family. And were better to put such a place than here, where Rhaegal’s ocean and her forests met and intertwined in harmony.

She would see other bays, that was true, but this one was holding her heart.

She saw @Rhaegal off for the day with a kiss, then set out towards the beach, tail bobbing behind her. It was toward a small tide pool that she went, vibrant fox thrown over her shoulders, nose dipped low as she peered into its depths, wishing for oysters if she could find any, a skin between her teeth to haul them back for a saltbrine dinner.
