    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    [open]  truth hurts; needed something more exciting
    #7
    Celina has not yet learned to hide her emotions, and they are as clear on her face and in her body as clouds in a summer sky. There is mostly excitement, plain in the quivering of young muscle and the brightness of her seagreen eyes, but the there is a breif shadow of cencern when Leilan repeats her question about available husbands to Kensa. Is he laughing at her, the crease in her silver striped brow seems to say, or at Kensa?

    Perhaps neither, she decides with a soft smile of reasurance, because he understands that her tasks are important ones. Her chest puffs up, just a little, as Leilan acknowledges this. Truth be told, Celina is not entirely sure what one does with either a husband or a recruit, but she does very much like that Leilan wants to help, and she especially likes that he offers to train her sooner than the next millenia.

    She is entirely distracted from the idea of training by Kena’s offer to see the lake, and Celina boounces hapily from side to side as she says: “Yes, yes, oh yes! Bubby says it is sooo pretty and I wanna see it too!” Referring to her brother Pteron by the nickname she’s given him, Celina expresses her desire to see the lake without qualm, and eagerly answers the sabino’s next questions in an effort to hasten their trip to the mythical lake.

    “Yes! Her name is Marni and she’s very nice and pretty and someday she’s gonna teach me to fly.” These are very important attributes, at least to Celina, and she tries her best to convey her honesty in her wide eyes and eagerly bobbing head. The question of her parent’s names brings a shadow to her face for a moment. She is sure that Kensa wants names other than Momma and Daddy, but Celina so rarely hears them called anything else.

    “Momma’s name is, um...Darling?” She is clearly unsure of this, but that sounds more like a name than “My love,” which is the other thing that Daddy calls her. About his name though, Celina is much more certain: “Daddy’s name is Bane! Wolfbane!”

    The little pegasus us glad to be distracted from her lack of knowledge by more information about what exactly a recruit is – and does. “Oh,” she says, nodding sagely “Yes. I think Leilan and Daddy have the same job.” This is reassuring to her, and she smiles up at Leilan with another bright grin. He can train her then, she decides, but maybe after they see the lake. As soon as Kensa has gestured, Celina darts toward it, her ring of fireflies gliding around her in a flickering yellow-green light.
