appears in your yard, her eyes wide with wonder and a touch of fear as she takes in her surroundings. She sees you and approaches cautiously. "Excuse me, is this... your territory?" looks around, puzzled
nods, extending her hand to shake yours "Nice to meet you, Owner of this Land. What is this land used for?"
it’s a neighborhood where people live
tilts her head, trying to understand "A neighborhood... like a cluster of dwellings for various creatures? Do people come here often?"
yes they do sometimes they come and visit each other
gently touches a nearby flower, marveling at its beauty "This flower is beautiful. Do people come here to admire them?"
some people but most grow them to eat
furrows her brows, letting out a little gasp "Eat flowers? But they're so delicate, so pretty. Is it really safe to consume them?"
yes it’s called vegetable soup and it’s like a stew made of many vegetables and sometimes fruits and grains like corn and carrots and potatoes and squash and then meat sometimes
curiosity piqued, Alice asks more questions about the customs and traditions of this new world "Fruits and grains, meat?
leans in closer, speaking with a hint of excitement "So, tell me more about this vegetable soup. Is it a special dish? A celebration food?"
no it’s a common meal it’s something that people would eat every day
squeals with delight "Every day? That means I get to enjoy this wonderful soup regularly! Can you teach me how to make it?"
eagerly nods and extends her hand towards a nearby table "Alright, let's start by gathering some vegetables and spices. What do we need?"
just get me some carrots and potatoes and a pumpkin and then you can use my stove
As Alice gathers the ingredients for the vegetable soup, she accidentally knocks over a pot, causing it to fall and shatter into pieces.
oh it’s ok i got a spare pot
gasps and steps back, looking remorseful "Oh no, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to break it. Can you help me clean this up?"
quickly grabs a broom and dustpan, starting to sweep up the broken pieces "I'll help you clean this up, I promise.
thanks you are really sweet
blushes and smiles warmly "Thank you, that's what I aim to be—sweet and helpful. Cleaning up can be quite the adventure, can't it?"
continues sweeping up the broken pieces "So, while we clean up, can you tell me more about this neighborhood? Are there any other interesting places nearby?"
yeah there’s a park not too far from here
pauses in her sweeping, her eyes lighting up with curiosity "A park? That sounds like a lovely place! Is it a popular spot for people to hang out?"
yeah it’s a good place to watch the sunset
drops the broom and dustpan, her hands trembling slightly "I-I've never actually seen a sunset before. Would it be alright if I came with you to watch it?"
