“I’m so glad we were able to get together today, Autumn. I really enjoy these little chats of ours.“

“Oh, I wouldn’t miss it for the world, Val! Especially when your amaaaaazing peppermint tea is involved!”

Valerian is the kirin grove’s resident herbalist. He uses herbs, fruits, seeds and juices from the forest to make herbal remedies for various aches, pains and illnesses. He also makes a great cup of tea!

He’s much calmer and more subdued than Autumn Blaze, but he’s no less friendly. He likes flowers, music, walks in the woods and chatting with friends.

Valerian is my kirin OC.

Fun Fact: I drew this entire picture with just a felt tip pen and a black marker. No drafts, no erasing, everything was drawn exactly as you see it here. tbh, I’m really impressed by how well I can draw when I just have fun and not focus on making a perfect picture.
