Breckin

the truth that you'll find
will always be the truth you hide

Wanderlust plagued her always.

When the tides of Nerine swelled and eased, she was always longing to break away from the riptide.  But she fought through her selfish desires most days, donning the gilded crown with poise and composure when necessary, then tossing it aside on days like today to ground herself.  Even if winter’s stark harshness was promising to be arguably cruel, she could find the beauty in it.  Many of the fields and meadows remained innocent and undisturbed from the light snowfall of the night before, dusting the ground with a dazzling show of frozen glitter when the sun touched it just right.

The River wound just ahead of her, and she’d begun drifting into lazy personal musings of Leilan, and Wolfbane, and Scorch, and Ilma…

Rather carelessly, her ivory hoof meets with a downed branch, sending a painful snap over the evening’s still as it gave away beneath her weight.  Breckin becomes rigid at the delayed flurry of movement to the side of her, only mildly eased by the recognizable flash of white belonging to a startled deer as it sought refuge towards the River’s banks.

When she breaks through the coverage of tightly knit trees, her roving eyes fall claim to a vaguely familiar stallion standing ankle deep in the shallows.  His back was to her, seemingly on alert as the doe hightailed it further down the length of the watery ribbon.  Cocking her rear hoof to shift her weight, she watches him a moment longer, while the workings of an amused smile tilt the corners of her lips into a smirk.

“You look a bit different when you’re not blurry.”

your world is still lacking of me, how do you love?
