Sayf followed the river the ran from the lake between here and the mesa. The water flowed in the opposite direction he traveled, full from a recent storm. He carefully scoured the rocks and trees that resided near the water. The fellahin was looking for moss to bring back to the outpost and add to the medicinal plants.
He'd found a violet flower too and had eagerly picked it. Soon everything would be cold and dead. Searching for plants reminded him of his mistress and his heart ached. He hoped, wherever she was, she had someone like him to help her and make sure she had what she needed. Not that she necessarily needed it, but he still wished for it all the same.
Sayf sighed wistfully and continued his search, eager for any distraction.
