[Joy, there was sheer joy and happiness in her expression, along with some happy chirps and cheeping. Her wings glowing with her joy as she is seen in a clearing, semi-dirtied as she putting the final touches of properly planting a tree sapling.]

Young ones! I was giving some young ones of my home! My home is here!

[Though now, she goes to sing and soon after she started singing, the tree saplings that were planted throughout the clearing, started to grow more and more, quite rapidly. Once they reach a certain height and size, they stopped growing due to Leanne no longer singing. In fact, she was looking quite pale and sweating as she begins to pant a little.]

This... Is... Harder than it looks...

[She mumbles before coughing a little bit and oh look, a little bit of blood as she goes to quickly turn off the feed. NO NEED TO WORRY ANYONE OVER THIS!]

[Too late for that, Leanne. Sylvando was about to comment on how wonderful it was, and ask if he could come see the little darlings, but as Leanne's singing faded...]

Leanne, darling? Are you alright? You don't look well, honey...

I... Am fine... Just gonna catch my breath before continuing.

[Please ignore the obvious tiny bit of blood on the corner of her mouth.]

[Sorry, Leanne, he's not buying it.]

Uh-uh, darling, I think you've done enough for today.

[Possibly for several days.]

Trees are patient sorts; no need to rush things, you know?

[Though speaking of rushing, the moving background of his post indicates that he's already headed to where he suspects she is.]

[No, please buy it! She is just not used to using such a high level of magic!]

No, I can do more. I just need to take a small break to catch my breath, my friend.

[Sitting still for several days is not something she thinks she can do.]

But... There are no elders here to help....

[Oh oh dear... It may take him a while as Sesshomaru found this spot.]

What are you doing?

[Should have thought of that before you almost RRODed yourself, birb child. Sylv shakes his head.]

Sweetie, it's one thing to stretch your limits a bit. It's quite another to try and race past them to the point of hurting yourself because you don't want to admit they're there.

[Guess which one you're doing, Leanne. Just guess.]

Well then, once you've had a chance to rest up properly, we'll give your leafy little friends a command performance together, but for now, you've done enough.

I'm coming over to make sure you're alright. It so happens, I know a bit of healing magic and a few fabulous recipes for soup. Just the thing to help a lovely young lady get her strength back.

[Well how else was she supposed to know her limits? And she can do it!]

But it's the truth. I can do another song after this rest.

[Stretching her limits!]

.... No, it's not enough. They are still too small and young. I am strong and can handle it.

But you don't need to do such for this one. She is fine, she can meet you if you want to see her.

[Stopping before you start coughing up blood, for starters.]

I'm sure you can, darling, but you're going to need more than a few moments of rest after all that. Your lovely trees will wait awhile; forests aren't grown in a day, you know.

And people who are 'fine' don't cough up blood, honey. You stay put, and I'll come to you. And no more singing until I get there! As much as I adore music, a little quiet is important now and then too.

[Hey now! She wasn't expecting the song to do that!]

I know that they don't but these ones, it is best for them to grow.... You know why.

I am fine, I just didn't expect it to happen. Ah but it is far from where Beorcs live. Moved deeper into the forest and I don't want you to be lost, my friend.

I know why, darling.

[His reply is a bit gentler, and his tone understanding.]

But for that to happen, you need to take care of yourself too. So just let me know which path to take and I'll be there with bells on, hmm? With a bit of help and a good meal, you'll be fighting fit- or rather, singing fit- before you know it.

Leanne? {He sounds and looks worried, his brow creasing.} Stop. Do no more. I am coming to you.

[She blinks before cooing a little at the worried look.]

But... I'm... I'm fine... The young ones...

[But she is stopping and will wait for him. No matter how hard it is to resist the temptation to go back to singing.]

{He arrives in a whirl of color after following her scent.}

You are injuring yourself.

{And that isn't okay, Leanne.}

They will grow with or without your assistance.

{Maybe? He's guessing.}

[She was at the spot where their home will be built. She opens her mouth to protest but then remembers the taste of blood and yeah, he has a point there.]

It is the first I have used that song. I didn't know...

[That it would have that type of effect on her.]

Yes, they would without my songs but, they probably wouldn't be as strong as they could be, since none of the elder ones are here to help with their growth.

[And she does look somewhat apologetic.]

[At first, Rose was just interested in seeing how the girl was making the trees grow, but then the coughing with blood started.]

Dear Soa! Are you alright?

[Oh goddess, just how many more are gonna see that little mishap?]

This one is fine... You don't need to worry about her.

[And here is the small smile as she lifts a sleeve to wipe at the blood.]

[Rose gives her a flat look. She's not buying that at all!]

You coughed up blood. Last I checked that is the opposite of being "fine."

[Did Leanne slink back? Yes, yes she did at that look.]

I am just.... Not used to that particular song. The blood must be an illusion you saw

[Continues giving that look!

[If the song did that, then its magical properties must be very strong.]

You are not fooling anyone when you literally just wiped the blood away with your sleeve on camera.

If that song is so powerful that it did that to you then you need to use it a little bit at a time until you build your endurance.

[Leanne's wings move almost at once into a submissive position at the look!

It was one of her stronger magic.]

But, it isn't much to worry.

[A sigh and frowns.]

But, it is better that I grow them fully as soon as possible. With that song, I do an exchange of sorts. And... I want to make sure that they are safe even if I am not around.

You push yourself too hard and you may not be to get to grow to their full height before you give out.

[She has a feeling what the exchange might be.]

Think of how a runner in a race works. If they go at full speed right away, they will easily wear themselves out and they either lose or not even finish the race. If they pace themselves and give a final push at the end, they can easily win the race.

Right now, you are being like the runner going at full speed. It will actually be faster and easier on you if you pace yourself.

That is why I am taking a small break now.

[It is most likely what she is thinking.]

But... These little ones are in need of me....

[And because of that, she can't let them down and she can't be weak... She is a royal and a heron and now Sesshomaru, their new home...]

I wouldn't really be able to leave until it's done.

It looks like you need more than just a small break.

[Especially since the girl was coughing up blood!]

Plants are a lot hardier than one would think. They will not wither away and die the second you stop using your magic.

I imagine the spell is only to help them grow, correct? Meaning they should continue to grow even without your magic, just at a slower rate.

Milady, I think you might need to rest???

[ D= ]

[Another cough as she notices him. No, she didn't want to worry him.]

Just a brief rest... I used too strong of a song on them.

[ /fretting far too much to remember she told him not to call her lady ]

My lady, I think perhaps they will do well enough for a day or two, now, surely! You are clearly exhausted...
