"Is returning land back to Nature the same as Permaculture's design with Nature?"

P-Willi and her trusted second soul, Hawk Drone, are out mapping in the permaculture guild's prized food forest, collaborating on a new Sunday aerial site survey.

At 100' overhead, Hawk Drone whirls away, darting here and there, swooping at the fingers of P-Willi and her Command - X tablet and software.

Hawk pans and reveals a small clearing deep down in the trees. P-Willi shifts its flaps and gets a better look on her monitor.

She flies Hawk down, thru the opening in the trees, into a dense region in the forest.

"Latitude and longitude recorded."

Hawk Drone lands near an abandoned fire pit and a disintegrated wooden lean-to; no artifacts are evident yet.

"Hold Tight, Air Bud!" she yells. "I'll be right there."

There is something more here than a possible homeless camp or a party hang. P-Willi soon discovers a small Indian bead pouch in the lean-to. Inside the little bag is a purple crystal and 24 seeds. She photographs the objects and searches for similar objects from her search engine.

She sends Hawk on a 360-degree fly-thru mission in the adjacent area to find possible clues of paths and connected land use.

But nothing comes from this. "How did people get into this space?" This is a startling initiation and soon a pioneering lesson for P-Willi.

Undaunted, the next day the duo hike through the food forest and return to the site with the crystal, seeds and a jug of water, using the coordinates from Hawk Drone, making a lite imprint on the forest floor.

P-Willi declares this a shared, sacred spot and pauses for a moment of silence for her forebears, then plants the 24 wrinkly seeds in a star pattern in the camp clearing, burying the crystal in the middle. Hawk Drone is filming, perched 12' up on a Doug Fir bough.

Willi lights a small candle and places it in the old fire pit.

She reclaims the site for Mother:

"Meditation, Rejuvenation, Resilience," her chant echoes far.
