Ahri jumps out of the leafs and lands behind the one watering the peach tree.
"Wah! Goodness, Ahri, please refrain from surprise greetings so early in the morning."
It was Soraka who jumped in surprise from Ahri's sudden appearance, nearly spilling all the water in the bucket. After catching her breath, she pours the rest before giving Ahri her full attention.
"Soooo, what brings you here so early in the morning, Ahri?" Soraka asks the Nine-tailed fox who gave her a suspicious look.
"Just thought of visiting the forest and what not. Never knew there were others visiting this tree." said Ahri, placing a hand on the trunk.
"I'm not sure if there are others, but I have been coming here for a while now." Soraka says, smiling at the curious Ahri.
"Is that so... I can understand that this tree is unique in a way since it stands out. What I want to ask is why are you only watering this tree? You only brought enough of your enchanted water for one tree, right?" Ahri asks.
"True, if I had to answer honestly, I am getting paid to do this service at least once a week. I believe the caretaker of this tree even asks others to do this, that's why I sell him barrels of my product. One more reason to love my job as a traveling healer." Soraka explains then walks away.
Ahri went into a trance after hearing that the tree had a caretaker. She quickly stops the Starchild to investigate some more.
"Wait a second, Soraka. Can you tell me how long this 'caretaking' has been looking after this tree?"
"Hmmm, he didn't say, but looking at how much it has grown, definitely years. Maybe ten, fifteen, only he would know."
"Can you maybe share the name of this 'caretaker,' Soraka?"
"Sorry, Ahri, that's private information. I have to get going... But if you want to meet him, just stay here, he's bond to show up." Soraka says before jogging into the brush, leaving Ahri to ponder on the possibility of meeting him again.
Ahri retreats to the tree branches and waits. Even though she has been visiting the tree for years, the champion wonders how could she have missed the other visitors who come by on a regular basis. For now, Ahri waits in anticipation for the next person to show up.
