Brine looked up towards his sap parents, uprooting, and taking a few more giant steps towards them. He motioned to Sorn with one long barked arm to move forwards, and then said to his sap parents, This is Sorn... You might remember him from a few hundred Patterns ago when Elder Trach gave us the task of reseeding the forest, and a few hundred Patterns prior to that when his spirit was born amongst us... He decided to come with me, so as to see you one last time before Carmelya beckons you.
He then allowed Sorn to move forward next to him, and continue to speak with his sap parents. Carmelya hs blessed us with a beautiful job, and we take great pride in doing it. If it was not for you nearing the end, we would still be back seeding the ground for new growth to happen. It is with our help that a better part of the southern forest has regained it's growth... and having all of the time in Telath has allowed us to keep watch over it, under Elder Trach's direction. I am uncertain though, about how long the forest shall remain as peaceful as it has been for the past few eras... he said, part of him hoping the peace lasted forever, but another part scared that something will happen, and threaten the beautiful forest that they have lived in for so very long...
