Phoenix 🐦🔥 - A Bed of Embers - 🎞 Buddy Story ; part 75
Returning inside as night settled over the avenue, I sought the quiet floor before the hearth. A small iron brazier rested cold on the slate, holding a bed of charcoal ash that had shifted into a disorderly drift against the rim. Climbing onto the dark stone slab, I knelt beside the iron bowl. I gathered three dried cinnamon sticks and a cluster of fragrant whole cloves left in a wooden dish nearby. With patient deliberation, I arranged the dense spice barks into a steady three-pointed star across the grey ash, resting the cloves at its heart. The faint, sweet heat of the spice rose gently, grounding the room in poised warmth.
