what do you bring Ellys?
Aderyn pondered for a moment. What could she possibly bring Ellys that she didn’t already have in that enormous museum of hers? She scowered her brain for anything at all that she had run across during her stay- something that Ellys might like.
Finally, she let out a disappointed sigh. She couldn’t think of anything hat Ellys didn’t already have! Perhaps she could bring the pink kalon a souvenir of her own- something she’d brought along with her.
As she continued to think, she quickly realized the perfect gift for Ellys’ museum! She scurried back to her room in a hotel on land (Aderyn didn’t want to sleep in a cruise ship with no AC) and rummaged around in her suitcase. Finally, she found it. It was a souvenir from a city far away- somewhere in Africa, although she’d travelled so much that she’d forgotten by now, exactly where it was from. The only reason she had it was that she hadn’t stopped at her home base recently, so she hadn’t been able to leave anything there. Apparently it ended up working out in the end though!
Aderyn held the beautiful object in her hands for a moment, not wanting to give it away. It had cost her a pretty penny- and that was saying a lot considering her wealth. It was a beautiful bird’s skull (found as roadkill or else she never would’ve bought it) with intricate carvings, which were then filled with gold. The second she saw it, she knew she had to have it.
Although it was hard for her to give it up, she considered that maybe.. now more people would get to see its beauty, throughout the ages. She was sure the skull would be immaculately kept in Ellys’ museum. And.. she didn’t need more trinkets to stuff in her home anyways.
With a heavy heart, Aderyn exited the hotel through her window, flapping her wings as she fell out, and gliding on the winds back towards Mermaid Cove.
When she arrived, Ellis was already there waiting for her- she’d probably seen Aderyn flying above. With a soft smile, Aderyn presented the gift, hoping Ellys’ would think it useful.
The merkalon’s face lit up. “Oh, Aderyn! It’s so beautiful.. this is perfect! I have some skulls, but not a bird, and the cravings are so intricate.. wow.. surely this must be special to you though?” Ellys looked up at her curiously, and perhaps empathetically. Aderyn didn’t even have to force her smile- she was glad Ellys had it now. She was so excited, and happy! “Well, it’s just a souvenir, so many more kalons will be able to see its beauty in your museum.” She offered a soft smile, earning her a returned grin from Ellys, exclaiming, “Thank you so much Aderyn!”
