Each and every one of the objects laying at her feet held a meaning to the young female. And while they might look pretty ordinary, in Maera's eyes they were her most precious possessions -- but it wasn't the glimmer of the stones or the unique patterns the leaves and feathers sported what captivated her. It was the underlying meaning what charmed her. Every one of the stones, feathers, flowers, and leaves she had collected, which were neatly arranged in five six different sections, were meant to represent a loved one that had gone away.
Danica would be soon making the list too.

Sometimes, the objects scattered on the floor would reming her of their lost relatives; a shiny stone of silver to remind her of her sister, the feather of a robin with Valtyr's name written on it, a soft cotton-like ball to reincarnate her chubby brother Larus, a bright red petal for Tuwawi and a marbled pebble for Dad. Soon the collections grew as she realized that Jokull didn't lie only in a stone but also in the softness of a tulip and that Valtyr could not be represented by a feather alone.

She continued to sniff over the small artifacts, nudging one of them into place as she began to hum under her breath. Maera who was still oblivious to the other female's presence couldn't help but to jolt in utter terror as she saw Scarlett's pair of red eyes staring curiously at her. "WHAT THE-- " she managed to yap before she bumped her head against the roof of the log and squirmed awkwardly to straightened herself back up.

Maera then threw herself over her treasure, greedily shileding them from the ruby-eyed female's view in fear she might try to take something away. She opened her mouth again to ask her improvised guest who she was but before she could emit a sound she had already introduced herself. "H-how did you get here?" she asked furrowing her brow in deep thought. She knew that the fact that she had named the place as an Ultraconfidential club didn't make it inbvisible to others.
