Chicoon: Sara
- Fairy Garden
Show or tell us how your Chicoon would create a small garden for Faefolk!
Next Sara gathers a bunch of large stones from nearby, making sure they are flat enough that they can be stacked easily without falling over, as well as being comfortable enough to sit on. Sara constructs four benches using the stones, set along the edges of the path, one each in the north, south, east, and west. At either end of each of the benches, they plant a small bush. The bushes Sara selected are ones that will eventually have flowers blooming on them. Behind each of the benches she sets up a trellis with vines and flowers growing on it. Sara glances around at the garden thus far; they think that it looks good, but there is still something missing... But what could it be?
After thinking for a while, Sara has an idea. A pond! Figuring out where to put it is quite difficult at first, before she realizes she can just set it up next to the rest of the garden with a little bridge leading to it. Actually, that would look really nice, they think. So, Sara gets to work digging out an area for a small pond. Once she is finished digging, she grabs a bucket and heads to the lake to get some of the water there and bring it back to fill her pond with. It takes a couple of trips back and forth, but finally Sara is satisfied with the size of the pond. They also get a few lily pads and place them in the water. Maybe some frogs will take up residence here eventually?
Now Sara needs to set up the bridge leading to the pond. Fortunately, it does not take her long to find some branches and other discarded pieces of wood that she is able to tie together to form a bridge. Once finished with that, they move it into place so it leads from the area between two of the bushes towards the pond. Then Sara gathers some small rocks to line the sides of the bridge as well as the pond itself with, which takes quite some time since she needs so many of them. Fortunately, they are able to carry the rocks in their bucket so they do not need to take many trips to collect the rocks. After painstakingly setting each one in place she looks around once more. Now, they think, the garden looks perfect.
