05. Lady Alma‘s House
At the cusp of the Verdant Veil forest, not far from the radiant residences of the Healing Whisperers, resides the quaint dwelling of Lady Alma. Set amid a vibrant canvas of flourishing flowers, this home belongs to the kind-hearted aunt of the adventurous Bloomurmur sisters - Aislin, Brenna, Ciara, and Dimiar.
In her prime, Lady Alma was a Healing Whisperer like her nieces, but an old injury from a fierce battle against the dark forces of the deep-dark forest halted her adventurous spirit. Unable to join the thrilling escapades she yearns for, she has chosen to channel her wisdom and experiences into nurturing her nieces, equipping them with the knowledge they need to navigate their bold journeys.
While the sisters are away on their daring escapades, Lady Alma lovingly tends to their homes, preparing nourishing meals to restore their strength upon their return, and ensuring their abodes remain clean, comfortable, and welcoming. These acts of kindness, however, are only one part of her legacy.
In her quieter moments, Lady Alma unveils another layer of her talent. Using vibrant colours and delicate brush strokes, she recreates the magic of Verdant Veil on canvas, painting mesmerizing landscapes that echo with tales of her own past adventures. Each painting is a story, a memory of a time when she and her sister - the girls' mother - explored the enchanting forest, brimming with youthful energy and curiosity. Through her art, she keeps these memories alive, sharing them with the next generation of Bloomurmurs and keeping the spirit of their lineage aflame.
