 AR Project - Post 2
Now that she had decided to use a willow tree for her Gandr, Eliza went to the first place she knew of to find a willow. Obviously, the most notorious of all the willows was the Whomping Willow.
She made sure to give it a wide berth, and stood by watching it. It looked almost peaceful when it was undisturbed. If she didn't know any better, she'd have walked right up to it to start asking for its permission. Thank the stars she did know better though, or she'd be flat as a pancake in two seconds flat. So instead of approaching, she just looked around. Do willow trees grow together? Or around each other? Or...Well maybe not. Because they're Weeping Willow trees right? So maybe they grow alone and they're sad about it. She pondered this a moment longer and took a few long strides around the perimeter of the tree. Well maybe I can bring them ice cream as my offering and they won't be so sad anymore!
There really didn't look to be any other willows nearby, so she began heading back towards the castle. Oh! she exclaimed internally as she had a sudden thought. Water! Duh! Willows like water! Soooo... the lake! Here I come! But maybe she should head back and get some ice cream first, and tooootally not just for herself. No, she would share with the tree, because she was nice like that.
