[[Voice]]

[For once, Moro is using her journal! Her voice comes over the journal, sounding strangely serene. There's a touch of sadness, but overall, she seems content.]

I am aware that my daughter was known, and loved, by some humans. She has returned to where she belongs. There are things still in this den, from her memories of all of you.

I do not care greatly for any of you. I still do not trust many of you.

But she did. And that is something that you should know. Do not dare disrespect that.

[Even with that closing threat, Moro doesn't seem to be untrusting, threatened, or angry.]

You now have but one forest god. And I will defend these trees until I die doing so.

[It's really hard to hold conversations like this, for Moro. There's a silence before she selects a response.]

Good.

[...Okay so it's a sentiment that Moro isn't quite familiar with.]

[Thankfully, Miyabi can hold a decent conversation when there's enough to talk about, or if she's worried for someone she cares enough about.]

Will you be all right, Mother Moro? If you need anyone else to look out for the forest sometimes...I wouldn't mind it.

Why would I not be?

Mm, I only thought, because San is gone now... [She pauses, and is quiet for a moment. It's always a double-edged sword to lose a friend in Luceti. Bittersweet, almost.] I know it's for the best, but...I'm going to miss seeing her.

How very human of you.

Eh? What do you mean? [Was that meant badly? 8|a;]

To not see things in the grander scheme.

Ah...so you're not upset? Uhm, I-I mean--...it is better, for us all to return to where we're supposed to be. ...I guess...

It is simply unfortunate.

...You're very strong, Mother. [She exhales slowly, and closes her eyes. Miyabi thinks she understands now, a little. Moro never has been attached to Luceti, other than the forest. Home is where she's needed, and San too.] But my offer still stands from before. If you ever need help caring for the forest, it'd be my honor and pleasure to help when I can.

[Moro is a very perplexing being! Her attachments and priorities are amazingly different.]

Do as you feel you must.

[She really is, and it makes conversations a bit...awkward for the poor poncle. But, she nods quietly and affirmatively. If there's anything she can do for the forest, she will - definitely. Everyone should be able to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Luceti's--Moro's forest.]
