... attempting to plant some flowers for those we've lost, but I'm afraid 'tis not something I am adept at. I'm doing it based off of watching His Highness tend plants on the gauntlet runner.
Mm. He dabbles, with small planters available to us. Journeys to new places on the gauntlet runner can take a few days, so he finds what he can to entertain himself - and the herbs he grew were very helpful.
