The attacks Thorne and the Free Cities exchanged, you mean?

[ She glances over at him curiously as she approaches, pausing a step or so away from him. ]

Just after them, I think. Close enough that everyone was still all up in arms over it. Why?

[ushiri]

[ He shakes his head, a slight pinch at his brow and a bemused look on his expression. ]

Making sure I remembered correctly. It's easy to lose track of time.

[ Not just here, although it feels especially true lately. He shrugs at the plant, and lets out a light huff. ]

I'm not much of a gardener. [ If she was wondering what he's doing out here. ] But this is simple enough even for me to do. And - it's important, in a small way. To help fix what was destroyed, if we can.

[ Basawar couldn't. There are entire parts of the continent where nothing could grow anymore. It's not something he wants to see happen here. ]

It does all tend to blur together, doesn't it? I haven't even been here that long, in comparison.

[ She wanders over to the tree he'd been... praying over? She's not entirely sure, but that's what it had looked like anyway. Then again, she had no idea what religion might look like in other worlds. She reaches out, brushing fingers over one of the branches. ]

You're not wrong. And I'm sure those most affected by the fires will appreciate the effort. [ She'd seen some of that devastation recently - she could only imagine how bad it had been there in the moment. ] I don't think a genuine offer of help could ever be considered small.

[ At that last part he gives a small shrug again. He did what he could after the fires for the people - clearing the farmlands of debris and corpses, delivering medicines. This is solely for the land, although maybe a little bit for himself too.

Anyway - he raises his eyebrows in question. ]

What brings you out here? [ To the gardens. Looking for someone, or looking for something to do? Maybe she is similar to him, in need of constant movement even when things are relatively calm. ]
