Brine turned towards Sorn as he asked about the plants being able to wait. It should not be a problem... Two or three brightenings will not hurt the growth of the forest much. And besides, when we return, it should be time for our druidism training to begin... he said, and then continued on his way through the woods. Taking in the beautiful day it was, as his body creaked and moved forwards, rooting, and uprooting in a steady motion, he was glad to have Sorn accompiany him.
After a short time, Brine could feel his sap-parent's spirit getting closer. He almost exactly knew where they were, the kindred spirits that had given him life a great deal of time ago. They looked old, and frail, and it was obvious that they were nearing the end of their eternity on Telath, some ten to twelve thousand patterns. Time seemed to pass so slowly for them, but yet passed so quickly, as they would be seeing their end soon. It somewhat saddened Brine, but he knew deep down inside that Carmelya would be with them, and take care of them. I'm here... he said to the two treants that were starting to stir as him and Sorn approached.
I had to see you one last time before you go to Carmelya... he said, rooting himself infront of them, and awaiting their response, hoping that they would not mind his coming before them in an effort to see them again before their passing. It was silly of him to even get the idea into their bark, but he did not know exactly what to expect, other than he felt they should be happy that he did come to see them, instead of waiting until their deaths to bury them in the ground so that no one could use their bodies for evil, or sacraligious purposes...
OOC: Age on the Treants might be off, I looked in the Compendium, but couldn't get an exact age cap for them.
