Unexpected Neighbour
After four days of relentless training, Vera managed to restrain her roots, difficult it had been but in the end, the training paid off, a cluster of mental instructions that made her know her body from scratch, she doesn't know where those roots even come from, it's as if they're created inside her body with some kind of energy or whatever and then protrude, the same way a tree sprouts from a seed.
