This something new was a peaceful hot spring that largely went untouched and undisturbed. A perfect place for the child to wander and play, a perfect place for Caretaker to close its eyes and finally gain the faintest inkling of rest. Though it remained wary of where its young master played, its worries extended only just that one concern.

As it turned out, with one outing to the hot spring, a demand came to visit it again. And by demand, the request from the Grimmchild was more a screeching wail that was paired with a reluctance to even do something as trivial as eating.  Having had more than its desire of the wailing, Caretaker caved and once again found itself resting against one of the myriad of stones while the spoiled little prince bathed and played endlessly in the bubbling waters. “You...owe me big time when you grow up.” the Caretaker muttered after the tiny tot decided to splash water at the beetle for the 13th time in 5 minutes @dreamingwanderingvessel

Post-ritual site rebuilding. Like John Barleycorn, the University based pagan site is broken down and reborn on a regular cycle. This festival we had to rebuild an entire section of the wall and clear the whole space of broken glass. This last rock needed all hands together to shift it! #rebirth #rebuilding #pagan #OBOD #Lughnasadh #Lammas #Wales #druidry #summerchildren #postritual

This is my "I did the thing huzzah" face. It looks very much like my "holy shit I'm exhausted" face and also my "every part of my body hurts right now" face, or maybe my "I won't be speaking English for a few days I'll be speaking my own secret language sorry no werds 4u lulz" face. It's kind of hard to tell right now. Lol... #sleeeeeeeeep #postritual
