Mesprit gasped with awe, completely taken aback by it all. Never before had she seen anything like this before, not even by the shores of Lake Verity. Her golden eyes took in everything - the trees, the unfamiliar yet lovely variety of flora, the sunlight's rays peeking from through the tree canopy - but it was mostly the aroma of fresh, pure air made her smile, causing her to take a deep breath.

Still, she had to explain her actions to him - it was the right thing to do. She sat up straight, hoping that she wasn't in any sort of trouble. "Ah, no...I was just smelling them, that's all.
