He looked up at Rowan, listening to him ramble. It was hard to reconcile the softness in his voice now with the cruel man who painted this room with his sister's blood, who'd raped Crow.
Tempted from his morose loneliness by a man who'd shown himself so brutal, Crow hesitantly plucked the rowan berries from his hand. Then he tipped his hand and the berries fell to the wood floor. A moment later, leaves unfolded from it, a tree shooting up out of the ground, its leaves spread to catch the light that was impossible to find in this place.
"This is it," he told Rowan shyly. "This is what a rowan looks like."
He tapped a leaf and bobbed the delicate green branch. "I don't think a plant could stop a fae," he explained. "Most of my magic, at least, is plant magic."
