Hazalinia stretched out then readjusted her bag across her chest. She was a day into her journey and had left the main road the day before. Though it was far easier to have a human to assist her with herb gathering, Haze had decided this time to travel on her own. Her own powerful legs could carry her further off the beaten path than she could go with Tygress in tow.
The journey served a dual purpose to replenish her supply of healing plants and as a spiritual retreat for the coeurl. As a healer Hazalinia enjoyed the time away from others who often sought her for her skills. Though she was talented in her magic, the coeurl also learned the basics of herbal healing. Her chosen human shared that interest as did her brother-by-bond Leif.
She was sure Leif and Glace were enjoying their time without another coeurl around. The two were an odd pairing of earth and ice but they played off each other nicely. Haze had no doubt Tyg was also enjoying the relief of not having three strong minded bonds competing for her attention. The empath usually managed well but things could sometimes be overwhelming.
She looked back torward her home with a fond smile before moving forward into the forest.
