yay cousin! 300+

For a while Cambria hadn't moved around much, because it had been too painful to, but the pain was slowly leaking from her body and she was able to walk around more freely. Still, she didn't venture from the mansion. Even if she had wanted to, no doubt someone would have stopped her from doing so. If not her parents then certainly Mati. This didn't bother her in the least though. Their authority on the matter was born of their concern and affection for her and she knew that if she were in their position she would be saying the very same thing. The girl had always been a homebody in some sense or another though, and so being confined around the mansion didn't bother her. She had taken to studying her book of healing herbs, not wanting to get rusty on the information while she was unable to go to AniWaya for her lessons with Dawali. Her healing was more than just a goal now, it was her actual job. She was Crimson Dream's Practitioner and she wasn't about to let her home down.


Wishing to be outside and get some fresh air she had taken her book, a pillow, and Enzo and headed down the stairs and out the back door of the mansion. The mourning dove was perched expertly on her shoulder, his head bobbing every now and again to take in his surroundings. Cambria held her breath for a little while as they walked to Anu's garden, afraid that he might take off on her and not come back. He didn't seem to have any inclinations of the sort though and happiness filled her heart. Just as with Leafy, she had promised that if he wanted to leave her she wouldn't stop him, but she had sincerely hoped that he would want to stay with her. It seemed that that was indeed the case. Her slender fingers gently rubbed his chest and he let out a contented coo.


The Marino reached the pretty little garden by the house that the Lt. General kept and propped a pillow against the side of the house. Gently she lowered herself to the ground, the bandages around her torso stretching as her body stretched and moved. A light wince was on her face but it soon disappeared once she was settled against the pillow, her legs stretched out in front of her. Cambi opened up the book and her sea green eyes scanned over the page, absorbing the information.
