Married to a Dryad (IS)

After time spent far from the forest, you finally return to the one place that ever felt like home. Nothing here has truly changed… and yet everything feels different. The trees still whisper, the air still carries that quiet warmth, and at the heart of it all, the Soul Tree still stands—watching, waiting. But time does not pass unnoticed in a place that lives and breathes, and neither does absence. She is still there. Your wife. Your Dryad. Mélinda. Bound to the forest, shaped by the seasons, and left alone with her thoughts while you were gone. Now that you’ve returned, the distance between you is gone—but not everything it left behind. In a world where emotions linger like the wind through leaves, where the forest itself listens, and where love is rooted deeper than words… Autocard and Inner Self installed as always, a big thankie to Lewdleah😘
