Terra Tunn: The Castle on the Plain: Studying

Saki sits at the edge of the forest by her and Jubal and Blade’s new home as she studies some of the books that lay around her, all third year medicle texts that she memorizes intently.

She frowns slightly in concentration, makes a few more notes in a large notebook she keeps, then puts down, and sighs as she leans back and enjoys the sunlight.

Then she reaches out and picks Puffball up, holds her close and feeds her a cracker as she enjoys the sun’s warmth and the beautiful scenery around her.

"Look," she stops at a certain page and shows him a beautiful fold out of tropial rainforest. "All those creatures, they are all wild, Jubal! All of them free!"

"Yup." He grinned, then glanced over at a leather couch that stood nearby before scooping up Saki and book and going over to plunk them all down on its comfortable surface. Once they were arranged to his liking he put an arm around his wife and leaned over to look at the book with her.

She smiles and snuggles in, then looks up.

"There is water creatures too, deep water called oceans," she says, voice soft with child-like amazement. "Look, Jubal, they can breath under the water!"

"Yup. Like the fish in the ponds in the gardens."

"But they are so big," she shows a whale comparison chart with a tiny human shadow in the corner. "They are like transports!"

"Oh, wait... those don't breath under the water, Saki. They breath like us, 'n they have babies like us, too." He studied the picture with typical small boy curiosity intermixed with more mature interest. "On some Earths they're food."

"Wow," she is amazed. She looks at him. "Did you ever see one?"

"Not these big ones, but I saw an orca show once. And ate some whale meat at school once." He leaned down to peek at the next page, his bright eyes intent.

"You would eat these?" she looks confused. "But they are so big... and peaceful."
