Vermillion had to admire just how normal Anabel moved for having poor vision. He answered her in the same voice she heard back in the pub. "I see you're busy planting your new friend, and I hope you don't mind me coming to see your garden before i head back to the mountain."

"Oh, Not at all~!" Anabel smiled as she set her watering can down, "If you'd like you can take one of those baskets there, and pick some to take up to the mountains with you... If you even like vegetables."
Anabel lowered the bucket down into the well, filled, and pulled it back up to fill her watering can. setting the bucket down she struggled to lift the watering can and shuffled over to a few larger young trees in her yard.

"I might take a few, but was more curious to see your garden then anything else. To see the sad story, but I don't see anything here that would bring a single tear to my eye. The garden is beautiful to look at." Vermillion spoke as he moved about the rows carefully, taking only few things that were a few days from ripening so they would last the journey back tot he mountain.

"I raise my garden the way I would if I were still a fairy... Somehow I can still connect with it the same way too... Even though I am technically a frail human now." She sighed with a small tear coming to her eye.
Anabel raised the watering can from the plant and set it by the door, then walked to the edge of the garden, "So, Do you think you will ever come back down from the mountains? Or do you usually just stay up there all the time?"

"I don't know, depends if anyone else from this town is cunning enough to find my shop in the mist, but jealousy seems to run in some here. I spent 3 months on the ladies sword i was to deliver tonight, only to be forced into destroying it after it took the life of her murderer. Can you make the journey to the mountain if you wanted to?"

She shook her head sadly, "I cannot... Only with the aid of someone else. I need eyes to navigate, and if I were to have to climb great lengths I would need a lot of hand eye coordination... which I obviously can't have." she walked over to a large oak tree at the edge of her property and sat at the base of it, "Though if I were in my true form... I could make the trip with ease... flying sure beats walking, Y'know."

"Well i can do all the walking for you, and as for flying well once were out of town away from prying eyes we can continue that trip by my wings. Although it would mean a few days away from your garden, and I'd hate to pull you away from it for so long without anyone to care for it." Vermillion finished picking at a basket full. "Although the trip would kind of be wasted if you couldn't see it, to feel around my place doesn't present all that inspiring a picture."

She lowered her head and sighed, "I-I'm sorry.... maybe it would be best to wait... till fall, or winter... for me to travel..." she turned away and mumbled, "Maybe i'll have better vision by that time..."

"I must apologize, I've been thinking far to ahead when you haven't even seen my face yet." Vermillion sat his basket down and keeled down in front of Anabel and took her hand and placed it against his cheek. "Feel free to look, I'll try to stay still, and there are some customers of mine who have better skills. I'll ask them if they might be willing to help you out or at least know of someone who could reverse these effects."

"There isn't a way...." she quickly added while removing her hands, "... none that I've heard of." she turned from him blushing and hid her trembling hands behind her back.
"Y'know..." she turned to face him, "... you're... the first male to... go past the gate." she looked over in the direction of the woods and smiled weakly, "Never mind my babbling... Would you like to come in for some hot and freshly baked bread?"

"Sure, warm bread sounds rather nice at the moment." Vermillion stood up offering his hand to help her up.

She took it with a kind smile, and escorted him into her home, "well, Here it is... I can't exactly see how it's decorated, but Ive really loves it."
Despite her blindness, her home really reflected her personality. The home was small, filled with flowers, and one wall would have one solid color, with a sponged color of it's opposite on the color wheel.
the kitchen were warm colors of oranges reds and yellows. her flower room had purples blues greens. the rooms in between is where it all blended.
"... It doesn't look too horrible does it... I insisted on decorating my home myself. I told the person bringing me the paint to bring me every color of the rainbow... Did he listen?"

Vermillion nodded his head; "I think he did a great job in listening to what you wanted. Vermillion took a knee and moving his hand to hold her wrist he moved his face forward and using a combination of moving his head and her hand traced her fingers over his entire face, and back through his hair to where she felt the two stubs of horns hidden underneath the long hair. "I have brown hair, and light colored skin, my eyes are a light yellow..." Vermillion let go of her hand; 'I'm wearing a brown monks robe over a green button up silk shirt, and dark brown canvas pants."

Anabel lightly brushed around his face as she pleased, blushed, and pulled her hands away giggling, "You silly man! You're going to pass out wearing that thick of a robe down here in the summer heat... You don't need hot tea.... you need icy water!"
Anabel walked into her kitchen grabbed a glass, a pitcher of icy water from the fridge, and filled the glass, setting it on the table, "Do you still want some bread?"

"The heat doesn't bother me much, i work around forges and furnaces most of the time, so actually even with this thing on I'm cooler then i would be if I was working. Vermillion removed the robe draping it over the back of the chair; "Yes i would gladly take some bread." He sipped on the ice water; "you have and excellent well, and have good tasting water."
