Harebell Tale of Heat and Hope in Desolate Meadow
A fragile harebell droops under heat and thirst as wind sun and rain fail to aid. A passing boy plucks it away, leaving the creature to endure fainting and longing for relief. Pitying, the elements waver, then depart, and the tale ends with a note of hopeful expectation for the next season. Includes scattered place names and a long garbled section of text and labels from the source.
