Firefly Glen Rebuild & They Will Come

Back from whence he came. Turning to follow the village leader, Leonidas had no idea what to expect. A favorite place for this woman? He imagined something feminine, dripping with colorful flora and greenery that stayed youthful year round no matter the weather. Something akin to nirvana, a hidden gem of the glen. The towering black figured stayed just behind Saluki so thankfully she would not see the childish wag of excitement that had momentarily possessed his tail. Only momentarily.

Woods parted to reveal a clearing. The woods had already been dark, even when the sun had set at high noon. So as it began to fall, marking the end of another day, the shadows of the forest grew long and tall. Where the sun was able to cast small splatters of light on the ground earlier in the day, now lay a canvas of shade. And in the middle of the canvas was painted a large moss covered boulder with the colorful flora he had predicted and an unexpected addition of glowing bugs in flight. he had never seen such a sight, not from his kingdom. "Beautiful." A large inhale and a sigh followed the simple word as he moved to take his place next to her. Titling his head slightly to the side, giving the soldier a better look at Athena's daughter, Leonidas took a moment to appreciate the yellow glow of the flying bugs against her features. "This place, it calms you." An observation.
