the Rift
Perhaps she's been lonely. After all, for years and years, she had been trapped in the darkness cloaking the western parts of the Rift, with nothing to keep her company. Stasis, of a sort, sleep that is somehow both sleep and death at the same time. Little had existed in the shadowy veil.
With every second you spent lingering near her, the feeling of being home, the hope that things will, in the end, be alright, swelled within. Her trunk, soot-stained and rough, began to seem lighter, as if reflecting the hope brought to it.
And as Rixen's orb split, to grant hope to yet another wanderer, a wave of profound relief—silent, invisible—rolled through the clearing. It left the flowers seeming less dead, the sun less bleak, the future less dark. It was as if the world around Uwaritace, and Uwaritace too, sighed, letting go of some deep tension or closely held fear.
You can't help but feel as if a burden has been lifted from your shoulders.

Hope has been restored to Uwaritace!
