She had been searching for hours. Literally hours. High and low the spotted doe searched the half melted snow, looking under any withered branch she could find in hopes that she could find a glimpse of anything that looked remotely like a berry. The Earth God had wanted them for something, had asked her himself for them in exchange for... for... for what? For friendship advice? For a friend? He hadn't really specified on that part. Yet Myrrine had been so starstruck and eager to please him that she hadn't thought to ask, instead she had simply obeyed and went on her merry way. Her heart thudded at the thought of seeing a smile on the ascended man's face, to see his pleasure and to hears his praise at all of her hard work. That would be reward enough to be honest, to please one of the Gods she so deeply worshiped. Yet she hoped she could still get something out of it, that she could finally be free from this lonely life filled with uncertainties and inconsistencies. How she wished for just once in her life, that she would be able to confide in someone who would love her unconditionally, easily with no judgment, and would always see her side of things.
These thoughts only surged her forward in her endeavor, making her even more eager to find these berries. The earthen man had warned her that they would be tricky to find, but she didn't think it would be this hard! So here she was in the meadow, pacing along the icy stream and by the rocky outlook that had clumped brush within the crevices, hoping and wishing that something would show up for her. She still had come up with nothing, only sore frogs and sweat forming on her coat. It began to freeze quickly, causing her to lightly shiver and look to the stream eagerly, hoping there was a hole where she could soak her feet and take a gentle drink. She couldn't stay too long though, couldn't be leisurely when it came to the cold. If she wanted hypothermia, it would have to wait until she finished her quest and returned to the Veins. Until then, she needed to push through and find these stinkin' berries!
OOC: Such bad. Very cry. Forgive me.
