It goes all the way back to my childhood actually. Back to when my mother and I first made it to sanctuary.

I had spent most of my early days in terror of the things that lurked in the darkness beyond my mothers light. It was what took my siblings after all. Such  Experiences had taught me to be afraid of new and unfamiliar things. And I was very scared of sanctuary at first.... But as I got used it it I started to notice that many residents had a job. And I watched from my window as the magpies worked the fields. I discovered that the magpies were the ones that provided the food and resources that kept us all safe. And I greatly admired that. So I started training to become a magpie.

Eventually I felt I was ready to try my luck at joining.

They noticed almost immediately that i was timid and shy. It wasnt exactly a secret. The person interviewing me informed me that the job did have its dangers. Some of the unexplored parts could hold hidden dangers. Like unstable ground, pits, poisonous plants and even magma. They also mentioned attacks on the farms. That happened on occasion. And reccomended I join the doves instead. If I wanted to support the community. My timidity made me ill suited to be a magpie. I was actually close to giving up and joining the doves at that point actually roy! But

She offered to be my buddy of sorts. and join me on my expeditions so that i could become more confident and experienced with my skills. In theory It would prepare me for the dangers of being a Magpie.

Eventually loosing much of my fear of caves. Using her psychic power to illuminate the road ahead and teaching me how to deal with simple obstacles. However Mira couldnt stay my exploration partner forever... And eventually she was scheduled for transfer to a different job. Once the head of the doves was satisfied I could handle myself. That is.

so. I suggested for our last expedition together as “partners” we should travel deeper into the caves than ever before. She agreed.

A small offshoot of the caverns lead to a damp mossy cave filled to the brim with subterrainean plant life. Bioluminous mushrooms lit the cave. And water trickled gently from the ceiling. It was a breathtaking sight. And at its centre. A mossy rock. 

At first I convinced Mira that it could be our secret spot. Where we could meet and catch up when she didnt have to work. I didnt want to share it with other people. It was our special thing. And we visited the cavern many times.

Apparently if one spends enough time around a mossy rock they will also evolve... And once I returned home... i was constantly pestered about how I had become a leafeon. Especially by the ravens. No mossy rocks were known to exist in sanctuary. And naturally they were very curious and suspicious when I said i didnt know. After a time Mira confronted me. Helping me realise that keeping the rock to ourselves was selfish. And wasnt fair to the rest of sanctuarys eevee. And so we decided to bring the rock to sanctuary so that everyone else could benefit from it. It wasnt easy. Mira wasnt exactly one for physical activity like dragging a large rock through a cave system. And I myself wasnt that strong. But after a lot of effort and hard work we made it back. And presented it to The leader of the Magpies.

That very rock became the centerpiece of the community gardens. Apparently its presence helps plants grow. Almost on their own!

These days I still meet Mira by that rock sometimes. Its our tradition after all. ( @team-oldbrass @pmdn-sunfall @pmdn-team-circinus cameo by @pmdn-veiledhearts )

… You’re teasing me for just making a simple sandwich, aren’t you?

Still– Can’t blame you for being jealous– This sandwich has ingredients freshly picked from Rania’s garden– I’m even trying this new batch of Carrots~

Send “I didn’t know you could cook.” to know what my muse is cooking up

Alternatively send “You’ve never seen me cook before?” for your muse to be cooking

(teatimepmdn) Ammy (@Rania): Hello, there! It's always lovely to meet a fellow gardener. Do you grow other plants down here? If you'd like, I could lend you some seeds from the plants I've been using for my friend's shop! Maybe we could swap tips sometime, too!! Aaah, forgive me, I just get excited to find other gardeners down here!

Its always nice to meet other gardeners.!

Maybe i should come and visit your friends shop. It sounds like a lot of love has been put into those plants

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

(teamicesteelpmdn) Alexis: So... You're a gardener? *she seems to be cracking a smile beneath her scarf* Nice to see someone trying to fix our food shortage problems. I'd ask if you need help, but I... Really would have no clue what I was doing.

Plants just need a bit of gentle care! You could deffinitely do it if you wanted to.

I could teach you if youd like?

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

Ah I understand. Ill see you tomorrow then maybe?

It was nice meeting you roy. >Rania shuffles her way out of the house and starts to head for home

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

Ah well. Im too nervous to approach most...aggressive people.

That said! I appreciate your advice! The more you know the better you grow after all haha. I hardly think youre lazy though Mr. Roy. Everyone has their place in sanctuary. From the doves to the swallows. Everyone has a role to play! Its one of the things that I take pride in down here. We’re like a large. Disfunctional family. And youre no exception.

If you ever want someone else to talk to im all ears.

 “Me? Don’t worry about me – worry about that bugger. If it weren’t for me stepping in, he would have taken that Larvesta and punted it into the river like he did to the rest of ‘em.” The behemoth’s foot wedged the wooden doorway open, just barely enough for the rock-type to peer in on occasion. It was more so to keep an eye on the clock than the bug-type wandering about indoors. Roy put a lot of trust in the brat, probably out of pity for the wee little thing.

 “It really helps to have somebody to chat with other than that.. 'friend’ of mine. Even if that somebody’s a bug-type out of all things, it’s still good to talk with somebody who’s put up with Oscar as much as I have. He can be a real handful sometimes, that you probably know already.”

 The turning and colliding of solid stone sounded as the Gigalith slowly veered his head to glance at the wall clock inside. Ten-Twenty Five it read, and Oscar said he’d be back on the dime at 10:30. No matter their purpose of being there, the Skarmory didn’t exactly take nicely to strangers lurking near his abode. Five minutes as all that the old gigalith had to chat away before his not-so-kind friend came storming back to his home.

 He may as well make the best of his time and get to the point. There was no sense in beating around the bush with what few minutes he was willing to spear.

 “Oscar is the type of 'mon who gets what he wants. If he has what he wants, he’ll be fine and dandy – he’ll be working up a big old storm if he doesn’t. He’s kinda like a child in some regards, but don’t you go telling him I  said that.” He breathed, turning his stone head, positioning himself until his immobile eyes faced the kind 'mon he spoke to. “So what do you do? Well I’ll tell you how to deal with him - you give that skarm what he wants.”

 “I know, I know” The old man swiftly correct “I’m not sounding all too smart, but you have to hear me out first.”

 “You don’t up and give into him. You give him just enough so he’ll up and leave you alone. Once you start, you don’t stop. Eventually he’ll quit being so demanding - he’ll start asking for less and less of you until it seems like he barely wants a single thing.”

 “I’ve dealt with his type before. Figured since it always worked on them, I may as well try it with him. He’s yet to realize it, or at-least I think he hasn’t. It may as well be fool-proof at this point.” A heavy sigh sounded from the ancient 'mon, the expression in his eyes remaining straight and as immobile as they always have. It’s been at-least five months since he partnered up with Oscar, and the crumbling boulder has been putting on the act ever since. He had an almost limitless supply of patience, but no matter how patience a man was, some people carry way too much emotional weight.

 It was taxing on most days, and on the worst of days it hurt. But the Gigalith had too much dignity within him to show any signs of weakness, he did not want to show frailty in the presence of somebody who’d wind up abusing it.

 “You seem like a nice lass - you magpies 'n doves always wind up makin’ life her hecka lot more easier. You people deserve more credit than us lazy Eagles. So promise me this one favor and stay far away from that ‘Skarm as you can.”

“I don’t want to find out he’s ruined your day.”

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

No no thats quite alright. And yes! They are a part of me. Theyre snowbells. Probably has something to do with genetics im sure. Swallows huh. Good for you! I hear expeditions can be quite exciting

Dangerous... but exciting.

You should come tell me about some of your adventures once youve had some!. Oh! youre a refugee right? *ihopeimnotwrong* What was it like before you made it to sanctuary

"Hello. I've been trying to meet everyone I can, I'm a little newer to this scene. May I ask your name?" He looks a little shy.

Well its nice to meet you! My name is Rania! Whats yours?Have you found a place in G.U.I.L.D yet? Im a magpie!

[Continued from HERE]

Thank you! and Yes. Ive been trying to make it easier for the farming division to produce crops.

Ive...only really succeeded in making the carrots white again though...  Im hoping this next crop is more successful.

Some of my coworkers tell me to leave the science-y stuff to ravens.. but I figure theres no harm in trying!.... Right?

Youre welcome to come take a look at them sometime if you’d like. (( @pmdn-lloyd ))

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

Alvo: HEY, MISS, if you're working on experimental carrots, could we try them out? I bet they're still good as sprouts!

Oh um.. Im not sure i should …without your parents permission… they are ….experimental….. carrots….after all

…..

….

Oh I suppose it cant hurt. I didnt splice them with anything poisonous.

Just remember to only eat the white part dear….And maybe stay close to someone you trust

J-just in case.

@pmdn-lloyd  The heroes this city(river) needs

[pmdn-snowbelltower]

Ahh! thats great! Ive been worried that the soil im using for my carrots isnt fertile enough!

Well i mean i guess its not so great for the pipes but um. It sounds like a great potential resource for the farms.

Its good that there isnt much harmful waste though! Its impressive how well maintained you and your coworkers keep the plant. Sanctuary really owes you one haha.

(pmdn-snowbelltower) Rania @ Lloyd: Greetings! Ive been told you work at the powerplant. Ive been wondering. Does the powerplant produce any waste products? Perhapsusableones. ohwait. How rude of me. My name is Rania. I probably should have introduced myself before I started rambling -w-;;;

(ohmygosh you are so cute)

Unfortunately– Or fortunately? Depends on how you look at it, But This power plant is actually doesn’t make much in the way of waste products! It’s ran by the natural power from the river here!

I do have some extra scraps that the other magpies brought me– Perhaps I can send them back with you–?

Oh! I do have something, actually!

There’s some mud that can gather on the pipes– I’ve learned it’s rich in nutrients and minerals, it’d make for a great fertilizer! It can clog up pipes, so I try to remove as much as I can, so if you want it, I can have some delivered!

[ @pmdn-snowbelltower ]

(askarkray) arkray: hello, I like your garden, it's very nice.

“Oh!, Thank you. This is just my personal garden though. I like surrounding myself with plantlife. So this also doubles as my room!”“if you want to see a really impressive garden you should go have a look at the community greenhouse! Its a combined Dove-Magpie effort to improve the communitys quality of life and its stunning!”

[pmdn-snowbelltower]
