The Piper walked along he could hear the waterfall, before he saw it though it still drew him closer. He approached the fall, taking in the wonder & sound, as well the smell of the water in the air. Such things where amazing to see, it made him wonder if many came here though there was no sign that people did much of the ground was hard so it would be hard to tell.
He decided to move back down a ways, where the waterfall would not drown out all hearing for him & with that he took a seat before he started to play, just a simple melody.

Feeling like a change of scenery Sarcha was wandering through the woods with the shirt she was working on, about half way through already she was making good time but she was running out of materials they'd have to go find some soon or she'd run out and loose winter time to weave.
something floated through the air at first she thought it was just the birds and the rumble of a nearby by waterfall but the more she listened the more she realized it wasn't just birds. Curious she followed the sound it was a simple melody but she was interested who would be so close to her little home in the woods, Flying overhead the swan who was her eldest brother called sweeping through the trees obviously also interested in the music and curiouse to see who it was. peeking through the trees she paused he seemed pretty young to be out here on his own not much out of his teens surely 18 at the least. shifting she made some noise since she couldn't call out to alert him of her presence and with a smile waved welcomingly.

The Piper, heard the sound he looked up to find the source, though he was taken off guard that someone was there. He did not know that anyone was around here & it unnerved him that he had not heard them approach, ether they had been silent or he had been so wrapped up in his music he had not heard them. He lowered his flute, as he spoke "Good day. fair lady" He bowed lightly to Elle, more it was what he was tough here one could not just assume, to do differently.

Sarcha smiled, waving, and stepping forward. She touched her throat and shook her head she couldn't talk he'd have to deal with her 'sign' language and gestures moving she pointed to the flute then tapped her ear before smiling and offering a thumbs up sign she'd enjoyed the music then she moved waving her hand it their a couple of time in a writing motion before pointing to him, she was trying to ask if he'd written the melody himself but it was hard, her brothers where used to her so they understood her easier she had a worrying feeling this stranger wouldn't get it.
she huffed she hadn't realized not being able to talk would be such a hassle she'd really taken it for granted, she fingered the shirt reminding herself why she'd given it up, yes it was worth it so very worth it. then soemthing occurred to her this guy might have seen some starwort maybe she moved lifting what she had and pointing the tapping her eyes hoping he understood that she was asking if he had seen any.

The Piper could say this was a bit new, he had dealt with both those deaf & mute, but this was different the way she acted was more like, she had spoken at one time & now was forced to work on speak. At the start he first though she wanted him to play, again at least until her motion to right it came & pointing to him. "I did come up with the song, though I cannot say I have written it done, yet"
He watched her perhaps his guard dropped more because she was mute or at least she played she was, something that could turn bad for him he knew to trust to simple. Looking at the shirt she held he had to look twice to get exactly what she was looking for, though why he had no idea "I think I saw some at the bottom of the water fall near, the calmer side"

Sarcha smiled touching her ear and nodding she'd liked it it had been a nice easy tune gentle and calming in a way a nice contrast to such a wild sound of the waterfall. whe he said he'd seen some she smiled setting down what she had by him tapping her eyes again and pointing even as the swan swooped down landing in the water and watching dark eye sharp as She moved to go and collect the plant. the swans was larger then usual and as Sarcha vanished frown view it waddled from the water watching Piper closely before promptly sitting on the plant as if worried he might take it and run.
Sarcha returned holding up her skirt the whole front filled with the plant she must have pulled everyone she smiled delighted nodding in thanks this was great there was a lot must have been the biggest collection of it she'd seen yet maybe they needed the damp to grow that was excellent it gave her some idea of where to search when she needed more, this guy didn't know it but he'd just done her a huge favor. walking over she shifted her hold her hand passing over the swans head gesturing to it then piper and smiling as if introducing them.

The Piper watched her leave, likely to see if there was any plants where he said, though as she left the swan that was with her came down & landed & the moved over the shirt. That was something new to see as well, he knew swans could be mean if pressed & he really had no reason to test the idea right now.
When Sarcha came back, he saw she had quite a few plants that she had asked about, with her movement with the swan he looked to the swan to her "Yes, well your friend is not like any I have scene before, but then I do not see many swans ether"

Sarcha blinked shifting waving lightly the swan almost giving her a dissapproving loo as she settled there and nodded weaving she want's sure how to convey that he really wasn't then against he didn't want to tread dangerous territory there, the no telling anyone rule had been decidedly unspecific and she'd hate to ruin all her hard work by indicating something was amiss so she simply shrugged as if she didn't think it was weird. hopefully he'd leave it at that glancing over she smiled how could she ask how long he had played for? she wasn't sure sighing she looked at the shirt and smiled faintly before gesturing to the shirt then his flute then her ear, would he mind if she worked while he played?

The Piper watched Sarcha, he was still not fully sure what to make of all this, but as she pointed to his flute & her ear he smiled to her before he moved to do as she asked & moved to play soming much like it had been before hand though it was a bit slower then the last one, though it was just as amazing as the last.

Sarcha smiled as he seemed to understand and started playing moving from side to side with the music as her fingers worked weaving the plants into the shirt carefully stripping away the dirty roots and making use of as much of the plant as possible dark curls of hair falling across her face as she worked quietly dutifully. the swan even seemed calmer as he played moving to settle next to Sarcha setting it clean whitehead in her lap the feathers a startling contrast to her dark skirt. Now closer he'd notice her fingers where stained deeply green and her fingers fumbled she wasn't very good but she was trying very hard, she'd never woven cloths before and certainly not out of a weed.

The Piper played on watching Sarcha, he saw her smile before she moved to the music he played he was not sure why she was weaving the plants into a shirt, but that was not something he was going to ask about. After all how would it sound, other then perhaps cheep on his part? He did not think it would sound good at all, so he though best to not say anything for it would only make him look a fool or ass so, for now he would play perhaps later coming up with something to ask that would not sound so bad in his mind.

sarcha smiled oblivious to his internal conflict the swan however noticed the pipers look blinking a liqud black eye it looked up at him before shifting and staning flapping it wings and taking to the air soaring off Sarcha watched startled before shrugging as if well used to the creatures willfull habit, she was, her eldest brother was also the most willful he was the one who wanted to see all the world and experience other people see diffrent things, her other brothers followed because he was a good leader no just because he was oldest. Sarcha smiled at the thought even as a swan he was the obvious leader of the pack, looking up at the piper she smiled noting his expression she looked at him questioningly was everything alright? maybe he was upset or curious about something, she hoped she hadn't offended him.

The Piper saw the swans take off, it was not a great comfort since he was sure they would be back it was more, somthing in him felt he did somthing & he was not sure what. He shock off the feeling, as he played on taking his time to enjoy the music & as he played on allowed the music to wash over him to help ease his mind form everything.
He stopped a bit later, more to get his breath then being tired of playing to play was demanding & he just needed to caught his breath & clear his mind form thinking to much, that could effect his playing.

listening and at peace Sarcha continue her quiet weaving, exhausted from the constant motion of her fingers and the long night she had spent before weaving he could see her head slowly nodding as her eyes droop her head would slowly fall only for her to startle awake and begin weaving with frenzy until her fingers slowed and she began drooping again. She fought for consiousness valinetly but eventually lost the neacful music piper played and the calm air lulling her into a calm slumber so that she was leaning aginst the stump chest rising and falling slowly with sleep. it was about this time the large swan came back followed by two smaller ones, these two swans flew past to the pool of water landing in the water and swimming while the last and largest landed neatly beside Sarcha blinking curiously at her sleeping form then looking at Piper confused

The Piper soon saw Sarcha fall asleep only to see some of the swans show back up, as the one looked at him he swore it was looking at him as if figuring he did something & he could not stopped the "What,I did nothing other then play?" As if for a moment the animal was human & not a swan of course now, he could not believe he just said that to a swan thinking, they where human, what a crazy idea, but then perhaps he was just tired.
