"I've never seen a tree become a mage... now that's interesting, mind if i take a few notes?..." A young-looking mage sits on the grass (Mag. Beahreth / @beaverthemerlin)
Verdant’s tone lifts, surprised but not displeased as they kneel in the earth. They tilt their head slightly, scanning the ground around the young mage. Their hands keep the steady pace of whatever work their hands are doing in the flower bed in front of them.
“Though you might not want to sit there. I recommend the patch just a bit to your left—yes, there. That grass has had time to settle. It knows how to hold someone gently.”
The gentle shhh of disturbed soil is occasionally joined by what almost sounds like a hiss.
“And you’re welcome to take notes, of course.” they add, without looking up. “Though I’m not sure how much I pull from the muck will make sense.”
