"Three weeks in which I've become an expert at avoiding unpacking my belongings." She grinned. "It's practically a hobby." A little more soberly, Lavender nodded. "I'm a Hit Wizard. Or at least I was on the other side. I've mostly been going back and forth between the settlements escorting the new arrivals. So I think I'm getting a pretty good lay of the land, you know? But I haven't been out exploring any further than the usual route."
Lavender took a drink of water. "He's here. With my mum. But they're in Settlement Two." She paused carefully. "Are you here alone?"
Growing up, the most common response to "Where's Dad?" was "In the garden" and so Lavender knew what it was like to have the desire to potter around and dig things up. She enjoyed it a bit herself, actually, and some of her fondest childhood memories involved being out in the garden at home. "Sure. And feel free to have a poke around before I start digging stuff up. It'll probably be a couple of weeks before I get around to that."
