I'm very pleased with how this one turned out, and I'm sure you can see why. I went all out with trying to get as much detail into it, and I think it might be one of my best works!

For thousands of years, Leafwhisper Falls in Val’sharah has been used by Val’s family as a private bathing waterfall. First claimed by her great-great-grandmother, Val has now invited her lover Loriandra to bathe with her there for the first time.
It’s a place steeped in family history for the Leafwhispers, some good and some bad. For example, Aethera had first discovered the man who would become her husband and give her two children spying on her bathing here. Though that was sometime after she nearly killed him by throwing her glaive into the bush he was spying from.
This was also the waterfall that Val had been heading to bathe under on the morning that would change her life forever. The day she had been taken by the vile Satyr who would keep her mind controlled and imprisoned for two whole years. Ultimately ending up with the collar, pacifism vow and the single life she had ever taken to gain freedom.
Leafwhisper Falls would become a regular place for Val and Lori to enjoy together. Even their little pet fox Kami would follow the pair there from time to time, just to sleep on the edge of the pool while they bathed and had their fun with each other. It was a little more out-of-the-way journey than simply heading to the moonwell near their home for some moonberry wine and sex—but it was always worth it to the pair.
Lori and Val had even accidentally discovered Aethera and her seemingly new boy-toy Zozu bathing together at the family waterfall. Perhaps a sign that those two were getting a little more serious! They didn’t disturb the pair of course.
