Jade Fern Grove Tryin' to light the fire with no flame

for @Siarut
set for early afternoon 11/12

It wasn't often that she left the the territory these days, which was not her normal. She used to explore all the time, spending just as much time outside of the borders as she did inside, but taking care of her sons had been her top priority lately, and she didn't like to be gone for very long. They were adults now and could definitely take care of themselves, but she hated to miss out on any time with them.

But, she did need some time for herself occasionally, and she had chosen to explore like she had when she was younger. She had been to this forest many times before, and so she vaguely knew how to make her way around it. She found a stream and stopped to take a drink, lifting her head and looking around to check her surroundings before lowering her head once more.
