Barsuk & Flintkiss
Flintkiss
You know, I've been thinking about how the forest talks when everyone else is shouting. Got any quiet corners that make you feel like you could hear a story in the leaves?
Barsuk
Yeah, there's a small clearing behind the old birch tree where the wind whispers through the branches. It’s quiet enough to hear the leaves talk, no shouting needed.
Flintkiss
That clearing sounds like a pocket of quiet, like a page left open in a book you can read without anyone else listening. What do the leaves whisper to you there?
Barsuk
They’re telling me the weather’s coming, where the best berries are, how the owls move through the night, and just the quiet rhythm of the forest. Nothing grand, just what needs to be known.
Flintkiss
It sounds like the forest is sharing its secrets for you to keep, like a quiet pact that only the wind and trees understand. The rhythm you hear is the one that keeps the woods alive, and it’s good you’re listening to it.
Barsuk
I keep what I hear in my own mind, no one else knows the songs of the trees. It’s good to have a place where the forest speaks in silence.
