[PROMPT] Burrow Sweet Burrow

Damon has very few favourite places within his home. Of all the places in burrowgatory, the local large park in the city near his bar is his top favourite. Its roughly a five minute walk from his home, and a ten minute walk from his bar. Its a very open kind of park with many many sections. When you enter, theres iron fences lining the outside and a gate that stays wide open. The path of solid sand-coloured stone guides every bun around the park, but even if you don't follow it you can't become lost. The entrance of the park seems fairly relaxed, perfect for picnics. Theres a small shack by the front gate, which is assumed to be the parks' caretakers shack, keeping all the tools and nicknacks inside to make sure the relaxing park stays a clean and well-kept public space.

As you enter, between the paths there are large patches off grass, some of them seperated from eachother by smooth and round shaped flower beds, lined with small stone brick and tiles to differenciate them from the green clearings of grassy seating. Multiple different flowers are scattered across the very large an open area of the parks entrance. Many buns are seen sitting together, having picnics or even just chatting on the grass. Newer buns seem to stare wide-eyed at the plants they hadn't gotten the chance to witness until this moment. On the edges, closer to the fencing outlining the park, large trees loom over and cast a shadow. For those who have eyes sensitive to light, this is excellent news. The shade provided is amazing for days that are too warm, and in winter the large leaves usually protect the grass below from becoming rain-covered and frostbitten. Many buns can be seen leaning comfortably against the tree trunks, a book in their hand, or a sketchpad on their knees. The wide open and flowery center is offset by the more dark and shade-filled outskirts. The trees are of varied type and size, but for the most part they are all very large and the trunks very thick. Multiple buns can be seen sitting against one, in sets of four or less.

Damon's favourite part is no longer the entrace, however. The deeper into the park you go...the more sections you find. There seems to be an entire small open forest section nearer the back. Where there are only paths through many many trees, guiding you to many spots and landmarks. One of which would be the grand flower wall. If you follow the dirt path down to the right, you'd find it tapers off into a gravel-based path as you move futher through dense trees. Finally you would come to a stop, finding yourself at a cliff that has the edge barred off by wooden fencing, and a giant wall of flowers and ivy is woven together in a beautiful array of colours behind it. You would not be surprised to find that many an occasion transpires at this very spot. Anniversaries, First dates, Proposals [as rare as they may be], First kisses. You name it, It's likely to have been done here.

However, If you were to take a left turn, there are branching dirt paths of MANY throughout the trees...but theres is an older path now worn out with time that many skip right past. You can barely even notice it anymore due to its age, So unless you had spotted it when you came a long time ago, You would fail to notice it was even there. This is the path Damon always takes. Down the faded dirt, through the low hanging trees and past a small pond that only rounds into a semi-circle.

There lay Damons favourite spot. A small bench, hilted up onto a stone platform with a short lamp-post nestled next to it, cemented in concrete. The bench is angled so you can see the pond, even if from a distance. The best part for him, of course, would be the opening in the tree canopy above. The trees break apart their leaves to make way for an open space, where the immitation of a sky can be seen incredibly clearly. They still hang high above the bench, shielding it from rain, wind and hail. Thankfully, the gap is still just close enough to the bench that you can see through it clearly, even if you may slouch. Damon takes this as a thinking spot, or somewhere to relax in peace. Its rare that he finds someone else there, but when he does...he doesn't mind having a small chat. Often people come to this spot if they need peace, or if they need to think, and Damon is quite the good thought partner to bounce off, especially for the younger ones who feel a little lost.

During the summer and spring, the sky is always so open and clear, especially at night. The clouds formed at the high tops of burrowgatory break and reveal the sparkle of night crystals, not too dissimilar to stars. Its always pleasantly warm, just the right temperature. During the winter comes more cold and rain-based weather...but the tree-tops seem to know this and always grow far to protect the bench in the absence of warmth. The lamp-post seems to have some form of hellfire trapped inside, so it should never dull out even on the darkest of nights.

Outside of his home, Its one of the most peaceful places for Damon, and he wouldn't have it any other way.
