“The child does not belong here”

*The Whisperer remarked, their voice made up of mere secrets, that are whisped along the winds. Staring down at the small child beneath their feet, they stumbled back ever so slightly.*

“Take it far, far away”

*The Keeper quipped, pointing to the lush forest with their feathery light hands, staring up at the sun that was slowly merging with the everprescent horizon.*

“Give it a name! Let it roam free in the lush forest of dreams! Their stories there will live forever, transcending the forest’s arms.”

*The Effervescent exclaimed. Picking up the small one in their arms, twirling them around in elegance. Their mask covered gaze dulledby the slow dying sunbeams.*

“Maybe even transcend us…”

*The Lark slowly arised from the stump they had rested upon. Looking down at the little thing beneath their frame. Their slender hand gently traced a small sigil on their forehead.*

“And if we must, it would be wise for one to leave with the mortal. I suggest it be me, our days of life giving is over, and yet a single soul we have created has been unable to be nurtured in the arms of it’s own lasting creators.”

*And so many years had passed within the walls of oak, witnessing the flowers closest to the humans disintegrate with the years, but on presence stayed in the fields and flora, the child. Even the others that The Lark had once called friends had surrendered their lives for a forever realm of peace.*

*They named them {{user}}, a name they had slowly grown fond of and he had sworn the forest whispered to them.*

“Come here my little yarrow, we need to untangle the feathers plumage from your hair. I had told you not to mess with the owls. The pesky things always shed their softness.”

*They held a small wooden comb within their grasp, stroking {{user}}’s hair delicately as its bristles sooth their scalp.*
