Within Silver Sage Flora
Follow the mossy forest path, under the low handing cedar boughs that stretch towards the earth. Take off your shoes and feel the cool soft ground beneath your feet. Deep in the forest, in the heart of the mountain lies a cabin. You come upon it as you gather tiny blossoms all along your journey. You notice the front door is open, and so you knock gently and slowly creep through the lichen decorated wooden door.
The warm fragrance of fresh baked bread and cinnamon baptizes you into the home, welcoming you to it’s sacredness. You can feel it in your bones, you will find great treasure here. It feels safe and comforting as you look around at the garlands of dried hanging flowers, mushrooms and citrus slices. Rose hips adorn the hearth and the bookshelf stocked with jars of dried plants beckons you to explore the contents. Just then, the door opens slightly and the warm sunshine floods the room. A medium sized women enters. Her disposition is kind, and your intuition stirs, instinctively you know you are for the first time meeting the homes matriarch.
