[treasure] • A surprising awakening •

The sun had risen and was already caressing the scaly skin of the symprite which had taken its nap near a bank of corals. The reflections of the sun made his body shine a light red, while the end of his biotope showed our friend's awakening. Jaesper was not an early riser and went to bed way too late,but sometimes the future decided otherwise. It was early. His pale blue eyes opened and scanned the horizon. A sigh appeared and he decided to stand up, stretching gracefully.

“Might as well make the most of it…”

Her long hair, wavy from the salt of the sea, fell over her shoulders. Jaesper grabbed his ponytail and wrung it out for a few moments before starting to walk. Carina Cove was a place he particularly appreciated thanks to their waterfalls, the birds singing and the serene calm that emanated from them.

The goal of this day was to be productive. He wanted at least a few plants to dry so he could cook or meet new little creatures. In the end, even if our friend sometimes seemed unpleasant, he was nonetheless an endearing character. The sound of the waves echoed against the sand which was already starting to warm up and lots of small critters began to come out of their hiding places as our creature moved towards more wooded areas. His pace becoming more and more rhythmic, he glanced in one direction. No, not that way. He didn't want to find mushrooms, to smell the smell of this area which sometimes made him uncomfortable. This beautiful specimen chose instead to follow the mountains, looking at the rocks which, sometimes, contained very interesting little things.

“Oh, the stream! »

That he decided to follow,
putting his paws in the water to feel more comfortable. Splash, splash. Wide awake, Jaesper decided to trot along the place that he seemed to know well but... Noticed a small cavity in the hollow of it. Was she there long? Was there a small landslide? Maybe. Advancing towards the latter, our friend tilted his head, twitched one ear and seemed to make sure everything was safe. Okay, let's go !

He stuck his head in, diving into the water which seemed to have been stagnating there for a long time and was able to discover lots of pretty luminescent things. It was beautiful! He ran his fingers through a translucent seaweed, observed some pretty fish and followed the weak current until reaching a small underground cove. What he had just found already delighted him to the highest degree.

Why not stop here? Raising his legs, supporting himself on his arms, he hoisted himself out of the water with a shattering noise with the echo of the silent place.

“The perfect place for a nap. »

Again ?! No, Jaesper ! He allowed himself to laugh softly, without raising his voice too much so as not to disturb something or someone who might live there. But the simple vibrations of it brought out lots of little crabs and... A huge one?! But what a thing it was!

Jasper grimaced, frowned and let out an 'ew' in disgust. In the end, although he saw them often, crabs were not the things he appreciated the most. He preferred the small neris that seemed to take over certain areas and.. Turning his eyes, he was so surprised to see two! They were close to a kind of fern, their little ears quivering to the sound of the drops of water falling from certain rocks. A smile appeared on our explorer's face and he slowly lowered himself to try to get one of them to approach. The little creature seemed to go in circles, hopping and finally arrived near Jaesper's hand who pinched his lips with his teeth to hold back a happy smile. His heart was racing, he wanted one so bad! But these ones were way too adorable and seemed to have lived here for a long time. A little moment to enjoy, caressing these adorable little creatures, our friend decided to get up... Patting his thighs to remove the dirt that had settled there. But... He was quickly alerted by the other little creature which seemed to be telling him something and brought back, pushing from its small body, a ball of fabric and... A pouch?! Oh ! He lowered himself, picked up the pouch of shell and couldn't help but open it to see the container. Silvers and golds? THANKS ! It wasn't so bad after all to wake up early! His gaze softened quickly and it was time to say goodbye to this little secret world, to return to his real home and add these magnificent shells to his office so that he could perhaps treat himself to something the next time he went to the village.
