Moonspear quaking forest

“Hi Mom,” Seal said as she offered an empathic smile. “Sorry you’re nae feelin’ well,” the young woman added as she laid down across from Meerkat outside of the sick bubble. “Can I get you anythin’?”

She gave her mom a moment to respond before beginning the tale of her mini island vacation. “The island was so bonnie, mom!” Seal exclaimed. “So different than Moonspear in every way. I got to see tidepools, beaches, and rollin’ hills of lavender… an’ the ocean goes on forever an’ ever.” Every now and again, Seal added a paw gesture for emphasis.

“I got tae meet all of my wee cousins, too… well except for Abel an’ Tzedeq. They’ve gone missing…” Seal frowned. “But, I think I helped cheer ‘em up. I got to spend a lot of time with Dinah and Ava, especially. And… I met a sea turtle, mom! a SEA turtle!” Seal's eyes went big.

"Traveling with Grandma was great fun, too. But... s'good tae me home," the girl said, her voice filled with warm affection for their beloved village.
