Was there anything as fun as dancing on the plains? To watch as the wind swept her brothers and sisters back and forth, smile as the sun warmed their faces and egged them to draw their faces towards it, and to frolic between rows of family, listening to them in her heart while she made mobile not just her own body, but their dreams. Why was she the only one? Were there more in other fields, perhaps? The sun tickled her own face, and Taegan turned to look at it, smiling earnestly.
The sunflower child had little to do with all of the time and freedom in the world to do it. She was so young with so little knowledge of...well, anything! But what ambition she possessed! Without going very far from where she had once been rooted, Taegan had watched men and creatures traverse these lands, examined them traveling to survive, and had even seen a few children here and there. The children were what she loved the most, and sometimes she would approach them, eager to meet and to please. They were always traveling, and traveling anxiously and quickly with family, so Taegan would ultimately become some story they'd tell friends who wouldn't believe them, but the child didn't mind. Someday she would travel and meet all of the children, and she would dance with these creatures as friends instead of hide when they got too close.
It was a typically sunny and friendly day in the field of wildflowers she called home, and she chose the highest time of the sun's day to dance her loneliness away. There certainly would be no one around, and so she could dream and dance all she wanted to without being afraid.
