Marigolds were often linked to the powerful strength of the sun and represent power, strength, and light that lives inside of a person. The marigold can also represent the connection between life and death. According to Ayurvedic and Unani medicine, the flowers and leaves of marigold have anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antimicrobial, and antiepileptic effects. Marigolds are generally administered in tinctures, ointments, and infusions to treat wounds for inflammation of the skin and mucous membranes.

Pretty quiet out there, so a swim's a good way to entertain yourself. Even if Clearbrook's about as landlocked in the Riverlands as you can be, I've still been to places that're on the coast before.

[ his head tilts a little at the mention of another person, though. ]

Friend of yours? Usually only the rich folk get to have manmade water at their homes. Awfully lucky.

[killies]

Yeah, he's super rich. It's annoying.

[ the 'yeah' also covers friend. she guesses. whatever. anyway. ]

So you must be happy we can come out here, then.

[concoctive]

Really can be. [ agrees instantly ] Especially when they rub it in your face, huh.

[ but whatever, anyway. ]

Well. [ ... ] No leeches. So I think we can all agree the water here is superior.

[killies]

Well... He doesn't really do that.

[ BUT WHATEVER, ANYWAY, ]

It's nicer to look at, too. [ rolling waves in the golden hour are a lot nicer than a spooky stream in a haunted village. ]

[concoctive]

There's that, at least.

[ MYEH. ]

None of that awful fog, either. [ he toes into some of the sand, looking down into it before he looks at the waves. ] Food everywhere you look is a nice perk while we've got it.

[killies]

We should stock up and bring as much back as we can. But if it doesn't get used it'll still go bad, eventually...

[ fresh vegetables like to play this trick on me in real life. ]

[ homie same. we have some asparagus and a head of cauliflower sisi's mom instacarted us that i have to use still before they grow legs. ]

Mmm, yeah. Gotta eat 'em before they get too brown. Could always sun-dry some of 'em. I'd say picklin' is an option, just, y'know, that kinda needs a brine and jars.

[killies]

[ onions and potatoes, my nemesis ]

Smart. Maybe someone could ask an overseer for those...?

[concoctive]

[ i'm tempted to plant onions and potatoes when they start Growing. ]

I'm used to dryin' herbs, so I can probably dry veggies. Just need somethin' smaller than my axe to cut 'em up, but maybe these houses have knives..? [ if we can cook in them ] Overseers should be able to get simple things like that.

[killies]

[ ohhhhh ]

... I wonder if it's a good idea to be putting more knives around the village, though.
