"I would be lying if I said I did not miss the forest." She admitted, smiling a little ruefully. "It is all I ever knew before. Those trees, and the stars, are in my blood, and will always be a part of me."
She sighed a little, and her gaze became somewhat distant. She would accept what this new life brought them, of course, but her longing for the trees would always be in the back of her mind.
"But... it matters not. I was banished from there anyway, and would not be able to return, even if I were not here in the Library. So I suppose I ought not to dwell on such things."
Saying it, and doing it were two entirely different things, however, and she found that the idea she could never go home still stung a little.
Taking a deep breath, and admiring the flowers again, she moved on. "As for what to do with myself... I always had a talent for gardening, and a love of things that grow, though I don't imagine there are many fields in such a place."
