This place was much more boring than her Nonna’s stories made out. That wasn’t to say it lacked potential, exactly, it was just… empty, really, apart from the sturgeon still being around wasn’t much to comment on. She blew a puff of mist from her maw before she started to mutter a song under her breath. She really did miss the singing, if she was honest. “A lass came in for a drink one day, I asked ‘er what kind she preferred. "Liquor," she said, so lick her I did…” Already she could feel her spirits lifting as she took up a hum and started to nose beneath the fruit trees, “Ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum!”

It certainly didn’t have the same ring to it without her sisters or cousins. “A pirate came in for some treasure one day, I asked ‘im wha’ kind ‘e preferred… "Booty!" ‘e said. So booty ‘e got…” Her song trailed off with a chuckle and she began to dig with purpose at the base of another leafless cherry tree. Booty indeed! She was familiar with the dried caps of the mushrooms she had unearthed and a wide smile stretched across her face. Not far in the earth beneath it, the sweet scent of fermenting fruit filled her nostrils. Well, well, well! Maybe this place had more potential than she had given it credit for. Moving to another tree she checked it’s base too, finding another stash of fermenting fruits. Well, waste not, want not.

She tipped her muzzle to the sky in a call for company. She could make it worth their while…

Squall had lagged behind her sisters some. Really for no reason other than she had come across a set of dispersal brothers and well...history, as they said. Although she made sure to hightail it back to where her siblings trailed to soon after her little romp. She wasn't helped much by the way scents weaved and mingled with others unknown.

Luckily for her, Deluge let out a little call that was hard to ignore.

"DEEEEEELUUUUUGE!" She called out in what could only be described as a shrill bird sound. "What. Is. This!" Thrilled beyond belief to see what she could only assume was the good stuff.

Coming back from her excursion from the Lagoon, she was hoping to discover more of the Lore and see if any of it could be exciting. Her Nonna had weaved high tails of this place, but so far Seiche was disappointed with it. Not much to be found aside from the mundane, but perhaps her presence could change that or even the company of her siblings could help. As she heard Deluge's call, she was quick to heed it as she knew at least in her company she wouldn't be bored.

It seemed she wasn't the only sister to tag alone in the adventure Deluge started as she laid her sapphire gaze upon her sister Squall as she followed her gaze to the pile of goodies her sister had found. "Fuck Aye," she exclaimed happily as she reached down to grab a mushroom before greeting Squall with a smirk. At least she could have fun with her sisters, make the time interesting with their company.

Deluge had her head buried deep in one of the fruit caches when her sisters arrived, having already consumed a healthy dose of the mushrooms that weren’t uncommon at home. It was almost as if they had been expected, their own little welcoming party. “Sal! Seiche! Get inter it! ‘S almost as if someone was expectin’ us!” She joked with a grin and a wide wave of her tail. It didn’t surprise her that her sisters were the ones to answer her call, the wolves around here all seemed a bit up their own asses.

Still, despite the generous offerings, it still felt like something was missing. “C’mon now it’s not a party without a fight, I reckon I can take yer both on!” She gave a lopsided grin, dipping her head low with a playful growl. Of course she was going to end up on her backside, even she knew she was already too deep in her cups, but it would be good for all of them to have the chance to be themselves. Even if it was only for a little while.
