When Rowena received the seeds from the mysterious beggar years ago, she had thought that there was something special about them.
That they were maybe magical and actually had secret properties.
It was after all strange for a beggar to smell clean when most that they encountered didn't even have much of a chance to bathe or even get enough food to eat.
However, now that she thought about it some more... Maybe it stemmed from some prejudice to believe that all beggars were supposed to be dirty?
Perhaps the beggar back then was only focused on hygiene and cleanliness which were very important things.
That seemed to be the case because when Julian returned and helped Rowena water the plants, nothing happened and the rest of the day went on fine.
It was just another ordinary day for the two, and even the topic of traveling again wasn't brought up by Rowena because she was so focused on the plants growing and sprouting.
