    Summary

    Y’shtola has been settling well into the community of Slitherbough. She is well-respected and liked and, most importantly, she has found a place where she thinks she can unravel the secrets of this star and try to get herself and her friends back home.

    When strangers appear in the Rak’tika Greatwood, however, she must take a step back from her young role and return to her roots.

    Summary

    “Master! Master Qifrey! Coco’s hurt!”

    Agott’s worried voice echoes from upstairs in the entry hall, carrying down the steps into the kitchen where Qifrey is working.

    “I–I’m ok!” Coco hollers in reassurance, but Qifrey’s hands have already dropped the herbs they were binding without a second thought, leaving a scatter of tranquileaf sprigs strewn about the counter. The tone of Agott’s voice had sent a hot jolt of protective fear through his insides, his heart leaping to his throat, beating fast. He nearly trips over his skirt as he hustles up the stone steps into the living room.
    .................................................

    Coco gets a nasty boo-boo, and Qifrey helps get her fixed up. Some big feelings come to the surface and they share an emotional moment.

    A.K.A

    Coco accidentally calls Qifrey 'mom' and has a big cry

    Summary

    “He’s not here,” Coco blurts while Tetia nods along frantically behind her. “He went out ages ago and didn’t come back for dinner and we’re getting worried—“

    “It’s Qifrey,” Olruggio snorts. “He probably got distracted by a passing—“

    A clap of thunder sounds outside, illuminating the bridge with a burst of light, and Olruggio stops. His eyes flash to the window, as if he’s only just noticed the storm, and he goes very still. Then he rounds on them and demands, “How long has it been raining?”

    It's storming outside, and Qifrey hasn't come home.

    Summary

    "You know, I always thought I'd live somewhere with lots of people around," Olruggio tells him. The wine in his vessel is a rich pink colour. Qifrey made them olives and cheese with cabroccoli wrapped in ham for a late-night snack, but the pleasure was in the making, not in the eating. He sips his own vessel, listening. "But it's really nice out here, isn't it? Peaceful. Good for focussing."

    "I think you would be even more of a hermit, if you had the choice," Qifrey says. "Lost in your work for weeks on end."

    Olruggio looks sheepish, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand. "You're probably right. I never thought I'd be that kind of person, either… weird how much things change, isn't it?"

    "And how much they stay the same," Qifrey murmurs.

    A temporary fix-it.
