The books he had found from the library had not been helpful in finding out about Cybele, but Moore ended up finding his way back to that library again in order to check out some of the books from before. It certainly helped that he had found so many books about nature and gardening when he first went through the shelves. When he returned home, he seemingly focused on nothing but his new garden for an entire week. Not even Anastasius could get in contact with him. Every time he showed ...

Anastasius had been woken up by the sound of dirt shuffling around in the garden that he and his uncle worked on together. It was mostly for him, seeing as it was his house, but Moore liked to take care of it for him- which he didn't mind at all. He came out with a small light in his hand, noticing a familiar set of brown horns poking out from behind one of the bushes. "Ugh, Uncle Moore, what are you doing this late at night?" He whined. As he got closer, he noticed that the other pher...

Cian was no stranger to troublesome research- he had assisted with it multiple times over in his line of work. All sorts of students complaining about something not being able to be found on this new-fangled computer of theirs, or that trying to find books on the subject was "impossible" due to not finding them on a basic skim of the library shelves. Honestly, it should be basic logic that the more specific a piece of information is, the more hidden away it is. He typically wasn't one to judg...

Carnyx had returned to Cybele’s Garden to receive more training with Cybele. There was just a natural connection with the goddess, a motherly level that he enjoyed. Flourishing under her tutelage ever since that first visit, his garden had looked more vibrant. Roots stronger within the ground to withstand storms if they came through his neck of the woods. The flowers he grew lasted longer than those on the market, which he always gifted some to Vanessa, Briar,...

It seemed obvious in hindsight- of course a goddess of fertility would both associate with and prefer gifts that were grown in nature; Her garden was of course created with the goddess' image and preferences in mind. Locke seemed almost foolish in the moment having to have Rune point it out to him, but one surmises that's what happens when you lose the forest for the trees as it were. Taking Rune's advice to heart, it was as if a lightbulb had gone off. He had an idea- or, at least, the Start...

Seeing Vanessa so out of sorts with her research was disheartening, and while Locke didn't understand the reasoning to her frustration, at the end of the day the difficulty in procuring anything of use was a load that could be lessened if there were only another set of helping hands to assist her. While this wasn't how he was Planning to spend his visit to the cauldron, once she stormed off he found himself hard pressed to not do anything about it. And, at the very least the pheromoo wasn't e...

“Carnyx? Carynx! Where is that Moo? I swear one moment he is here and then… oh there he is!” Dolly was searching for her on again, off again lover. He was stoic and quiet a majority of the time, but was intune with her needs and those around him. While she was appreciative of when she needed to vent her frustration or let out pent up emotion to him, he always knew what to say or how to help her. The very definition of a gentle giant and one with nature by ...

Dolly was wheeling back an empty cart from returning checked in books to their respective shelves when she noticed she had an unusual client waiting for her at the front desk. Parking the cart by the desk, she walked to the patron in question. “Vanessa? Didn't expect you to come in here after throwing your books in the street.” My red eyes cut to hers, she sheepishly looked away, shrugging her shoulders. “I probably shouldn't have done that, but after pull...

When Soda heard about an esteemed member of the community needing help with something, of course she took the first chance she could to venture out into the library and seek what seems to be very important to Vanessa; Information on their goddess Cybele. While Soda wasn't particularly religious she did have a spiritual streak and never questioned the existence of the goddess of fertility. What else could be affectin...

“Okay, I am in the 200’s, there should be something here about Cybele…” My fingers combed the spines of the books as I counted upwards to 201 part of the library’s nonfiction section. Vanessa looked like she was about ready to rip her horns out when she was searching for help for her research on Cybele, which I found odd because I hadn’t heard much and only knew the name was related to the gardens outside of Bovine Bluffs. Surely she was exaggerating...
