((Blossoms of fire. lol They were for Hi to impress Toga so many years ago. lol Ivy is old!))
"This was for a friend to impress another friend. I shouldn't say who." Ivy laughed and then started to walk some more, "So, andything in particular you would like to see?"

Sally shrugged. "I really don't know what to say. You have so many unique and strange things in your garden, I don't think I could quite imagine anything else that might be hiding around here too" she said with a smile.

Ivy smiled, "Well, thanks. I do pride myself on this garden." She was the Elder of Flora afterall. What else could she work hard on. "Would you like me to help you grow pumpkin patches in different spot on the isle?"

Sally clapped her hands together. "Oh that would be lovely! I haven't really been anywhere else on the island before though, I wouldn't know where it would be useful to plant them so I could teleport to....HQ I'm sure but I've only been there once before...."
She trailed off and looked up at the elder with concern. "I don't even know if I will be able to teleport back to my pumpkin patch. "

"Well, I know a few good spots." Ivy said thinking of all the places she had been on the isle. Ivy saw the concern on her face. "Why don't you try going home and then try comming back here. I can wait for you to see if it works."

"But then what if I get home and am not able to get back? I don't eve know where we are, what if I couldn't find my way back here?" Sally had no idea how she had activated her power in the first place. She would have to be careful or else she could end up in a very dangerous situation.
She shook her head. "No, lets plant pumpkins first, while you are able to show me good places too. "

"We are in the Fae Clearing, my home of choice." She nodded and understood why she would be nervous. Having a power and learning how to use it was always hard.
"Ok, sure. Maybe we could put one by the beach? Mountains? Houses of Healing? Where else would be good?" Ivy could do it form here, but thought it would benefit Sally to see these places.

Sally just nodded blankly. She had no idea where any of those places where. This was only the second time she had ever left her patch and the first time wasn't all that great a memory...strange male love paes and getting lost and drinking a horrible salty potion thing. It didn't exactly inspire one to be adventurous.
"Umm, yeah, those places sound fine."

"Ok, let's do the HQ first." That was the best place to start. Seeing how lots of paes went throught that areas. I'll lead the way, unless you know how to get there." She didn't want to come off as bossy.

Sally waved her forward. "Oh no please lead! The last and only time I've ever been there, we were looking for the power hut and somehow ended up at HQ." She laughed. "I guess I'm not very good with directions."

Ivy laughed, "Well, when you become as old as I, you'll be an expert at this place." She still could believe she was so old.
Ivy lead her in a short path to the HQ's main door. "So, where would be a good place to put the patch?"

Sally thought for a moment. "Um well, they would need someplace out of the way so others wouldn't trample on them. And something with plenty of sunlight, but not where they would get too much and die of heat. And somewhere they can get plenty of water when it rains or where it would be easy to water them."
She cast around for such a place. She finally found it toward the rear of the structure, right in the corner. It was out of the way with the sun's rays lazily gazing down on it. "How about there?" she pointed.

Ivy smiled and watched as the girl looked around. "That is a perfect place. You have a great nack for this." She liked talking to someone who knew as much as she did about plants.
Ivy walked over and placed her hands near the ground. After just a few seconds the corner was covered in vines and big, orange, pumpkins. "These will stay here and not need to be picked...unless someone wants to pick them."

Sally watched in awe as the pumpkins sprang up out of the ground and grew to normal size in just a matter of moments. "Wow" she breathed. "That was amazing!" She walked forward and rubbed her hands over the rind of her new pumpkins lovingly. Sally could her the murmurings of their new voices and leaned closer to listen, curious as to what they might be saying at their birth. But again, for some strange reason she could not quite understand them. Frowning, she listened closer. Then suddenly she realized what the difference was...she could understand them perfectly, they just had a different dialect and a bit of an accent! She giggled somewhat - it made perfect sense after all for a patch to develop their language differently...they were isolated from other groups. And this group was very similar to the one in Ivy's garden.

Ivy smiled and watched as Sally rubbed the pumpkins. "You and I are kindred spirits I think." She showed the love and affection for the pumpkins as Ivy should for all plant-life. "Ready to move on?"
