Next to Conner in the Cabin 5 group stood a young woman with loosely waved red hair pulled up in a casual ponytail. With a large, broad frame adorned with equal parts fat and muscle, she wouldn't look too out of place wrestling a bear. She seemed to pay more attention to the two men with plant essences.

"Uhh, hah," the woman drawled, shifting a little uncomfortably as her turn came. "Ah'm Natalie Jackson, but most folks call me NatJack. Ah live in Mississipi, but ah have an aunt around here so it wasn't too hard ta get here. Uh... Ah think Ah have a soybean essence? Well, Ah had the wahld dream lahk they say the essenced folks do, an' Ah ain't never had any'a that soy stuff before, so whah would mah brain think'a that on its own? But Ah don't know what mah powers are yet."

NatJack took a breath like she was about to add something else, but a hesitant expression came to her face and she paused for a couple seconds before continuing.

"Ah love grillin' and fishin', and ah've won a couple competitions. For fishin', at least."

"Hello, everyone," a 40-something woman in the Cabin 2 group said with a dreamy wave. The chunky bracelets on her wrists clinked lightly as she continued gesturing throughout her introduction.

"I'm Dolly. It's so nice to meet you all. I live near Orlando. I have been blessed with the iris essence."

Dolly gestured to a delicate yellow flower in her hair. She pulled back some smooth black strands to show that the flower appeared to be rooted to her scalp.

"I can plant temporary flowers on other people, too. Would anyone like one?"

"Me! Me! I want one!" Destiny cried eagerly, jumping with enthusiasm and clenched fists in anticipation. Fauna chuckled and put her hand on the girl's shoulder to calm her down. "That sounds lovely, dear, but do remember to use your indoor voice and say 'please'," she reminded her daughter quietly, with a smile and a pat. Destiny stopped jumping and raised her hand instead.  "Please! Please choose me!" The girl begged, quieter now, but still beaming with excitement.

"Alright," Dolly chuckled. "You may go first, since you asked so politely. Though there's plenty to go around." At this, she glanced toward Mara for a moment before returning her attention to Destiny. "This might itch for just a bit..."

Dolly parted the young girl's hair and touched her scalp near the back of her ear. As advertised, Destiny would feel an itching sensation for a few seconds, almost like ant or mosquito bites. Then, a thin stem emerged and quickly bloomed into a beautiful purple flower. The medium-sized accessory for Dolly looked comically, but cutely, big on a small child. 

"Purple stands for wisdom," Dolly addressed Destiny. "You must be pretty wise for your age!"

"I am! I have the best grades in my class," Destiny boasted with a proud grin on her face and her hands on her hips. People in the crowd stared and gasped in awe. Even Abagail raised a brow and looked the girl's way. 

"How do I look, Momma?" Destiny asked, scratching a bit at the roots that now covered her head.  "You look beautiful, dear. Like a fairytale princess!" Fauna answered enthusiastically.

"Ooh! Thank you, mom. And thank you, miss Dolly!" Destiny said with a grateful curtsey, smile, and bob of her flower before returning to her mother's side.

"You're very welcome," Dolly responded. "It should last for about eight hours. Then it will wilt and fall off painlessly on its own."

Dolly shrugged with a wistful smile.

"It's not a 'save the world' sort of power, but it's a nice opportunity to add a little more beauty to the world."

"Oh dear... I've hogged the spotlight, haven't I? I'll make my fun fact quick. I'm a vegan and an advocate for animal rights. But not like PETA or anything, they're terrible."
