Somewhere nestled within the rolling mountains and vivid evergreen trees, there exists a large stone tower. This tower of brown stone and wrapping vines sits next to a beautiful glass greenhouse, as well as an orchard of trees that all reach towards the sky. This is the home of a young dainty named Ivy, who has a very peculiar occupation. Ivy comes from a family of botanists, and her specialty is not in simple garden brand tulips, but of the more magical side of botany. And what is usually a calm and peaceful scene is suddenly disrupted with a the chaotic echos of glass breaking. Ivy laid with her back against a table in the greenhouse where glass had been patched time and time again, clutching a bag of magical plant food, and gently making a “pspsps” sound. She peered around the table, stuck out her hand, and shook the bag. Her target in sight, a large lion like creature covered in blooming puffs and wreathed in vines, this creature is known as a Dande-lion. The creature locked eyes with the bag, and slowly approached the sound Ivy was creating. “Pspsps, here kittty kitty, here pretty planty kitty” Ivy in a rapid yet like voice repeated, drawing the large cat closer. She gently poured some food, as she carefully slid out from behind the flipped table, and stood up calmly. While the creature was eating, she eased towards a toy box, and grabbed a small acorn shaped toy containing a bell. She approached where the Dande-lion’s pen was located, shook the bell to get it’s attention, and prepared to contain it again. The creature turned towards the sound and began to approach in a crawling state, preparing to pounce. Ivy quickly tossed the toy into the pen, and the Dande-lion pursued the bell into the pen within the blink of an eye. Equally as quickly, Ivy slammed closed the pen’s gate, successfully containing the creature once more. All in a morning’s work for her, maybe she’ll remember to lock the gate next time… now, where are those pesky laugh-o-dils?
