Flowers: May 27 Around 2pm

Nym had slowed her pace knowing she would arrive in Olostin's hold by 5pm if she did so, which was well before dark. Nym sang to herself absentmindedly as Nesme walked the foothills of the Lost Peaks. They'd left the main road to Silverymoon some time before and were now making their way toward the High Forest. The trees seemed to breathe life, and Nym could hear the life rustling in its shadows and smell the richness of the woods.

There's a cold fire
There's a crossfire
And there's something
Inside, inside

And we'll never, never make it
And we'll never, never break it

Until... Until

There's a long game
That's a wrong chain
And it's something
We all hide it
Inside

And we'll never, never make it
And we'll never, never break it
Until we learn to see
Until we set free

If we could see that this was all that we need
Inside our minds
Bodies and souls
We wouldn't run and we would let go
Because we'd realize
That we had -
That we had no control


While Nym sang her song quietly, Nesme summitted a particularly large hill. The horse stopped at the top. Nym was surprised to see a field of white stretched out in front of her as far as she could see. "I've dreamed this..." she thought, and laughed. The tiny star-liked flowers swayed gently in a light breeze, their little faces turned to the sun. As they swayed, the sun glinted off their soft petals, making the flowers seem almost magical as they shimmered. Nym nudged Nesme to continue, and they walked through the glistening flowers as they swayed. Nym wondered for a moment what her friends might be doing in Waterdeep. She smiled thinking of them. Nym continued to hum her song as Nesme waded through the field of flowers.
