*she watches carefully as Hope made the tiny bud blossom as she had shown her. before long, a nice sized fruit appeared before them. she smirks and questions her* how does it taste, my dear child? did it come out well? *she waits as she watches her enjoy the new fruit*
hope~
Hope took a big bite. Her face split into a grin as the sweet juices from the fruit spilled into her mouth, and she bobbed her head in a nod. "It's perfect. You could end world hunger with something like this." Maybe that wasn't totally accurate, but it would certainly help.
sky~
*smirking, she gave a laugh* well, maybe one village at a time, dear one... *she placed her hand on her shoulder as she laughed.* we don't want to cause chaos in the world. *she leans her head towards the house* let us go enjoy the fruits while we tend to other things. *she smiles as her and then peeks her eyes up as a raven caws from the branches of the willow above their heads. she pauses and listens before giving a sigh and a reply* very well... show me. *she gives a wave to her arm as she then turns on her heel to follow him as he takes flight from the branch and leads them both away to the other side of the property. she sighs as she goes along* let us see what is his worry over. *she smiles softly as she turns her head back at Hope to see if she was coming* take the basket dear girl...
Hope~
Hope paused for a moment as she watched her aunt converse with the bird. It must have been Sky's familiar or something, because Hope had seen them talking many times, and it had a distinctive marking that made it obvious that it was the same bird. As soon as Sky began walking, Hope was right behind her. She was very curious about what this next adventure might bring. When Sky handed her the basket, she took it carefully and continued moving, matching her pace with Sky's.
Sky~
Trying to keep pace with the raven, she had to hitch up her skirts and start a small jot through the field. She would rather not expose and have to use her wings if she did not have to, out of the simple respect that her niece would not be able to keep up with them both. She was unsure on just how in tune to her own werewolf self Hope was into, so she would rather not risk it this day. The raven swirled above her, cawing a yell for her to hurry her pace.
"I'm coming! I got one speed you know ..." she muttered under her breath as she paused sharply to make sure Hope was still there before darting the corner at the end of their cottage and heading towards the stream bed trail. She followed it quicker by kicking off her shoes and going barefoot along the dirt path. The raven clawed again and again. " I know, I know ..." she yelled up at him.
The end of the path brought her back to the secluded pond with an old stone crypt looking building standing alone across the way. She placed her hand on her hip as she let out a sigh and whispered when she lifted her arm up to allow the raven to land.
She scratched under his beak and whispered. " what happened, my dear one? Why the alarm to here?" With a nuzzle at her hair, he took flight again as she waited on Hope to catch up.
Hope~
Hope had no idea what the Raven was trying to convey, but Sky clearly understood, and it spurred her on. When her aunt kicked her shoes off to run faster, Hope did the same. The low heels had been slowing her down, any way. Hope briefly considered using her wolf form, but she was still getting used to controlling it outside the lunar cycle, and in an area so redolent of magic, she was afraid she might not be able to change back so easily. She skidded to a stop just behind Sky and looked around. Things seemed ordinary to her, but what did she know? She was unfamiliar with this place. Sky would know better than her.
