Even when he had also been a lost child, he had avoided this place. Yet he comes now. Why? Why indeed. Aela had found a powerful child here and after taking Sickle from Tephra, he realizes the wisdom in plucking unwanted children from places that don’t cherish them. The Den was the easiest place to take them from with rarely any resistance from its caretakers. There is also something darker that brings him here, tied to the Fae blood that runs in his veins. Changeling foals, those that were stolen and raised by faerie. Why shouldn’t he take them if nobody else wants them? Look at what he had become, worthless thing that he had started out as. Just like them. And if he can gift his son with a sister, a companion like the one that death had taken from him, he would happily do so. She is not replaceable, the dead girl with blood red eyes, but perhaps another might ease the pain. Might help set things right and ease that guilt that weighs so heavily in his chest. There aren’t many here and with a quick question to the resident fairy, he is pointed in the direction to where the abandoned filly lays. She is the color of sunsets and smells of apple blossoms and he looks down at where she has crumpled into herself with a flash of his red eyes, the rest of his gilded face smooth and unreadable. “Your name, child.” He finally says after a few minutes of considering her. More of a demand than a question. obscene For some reason it won't let me reply to your original thread?

He watches the fairies as they pull on small strands of hair, as they poke and prod her. It dawns on him that this is the first time in a long time that he has seen one. It had been years since they had vanished from the wildflowers and the meadow haunts, years since they had left him after he had become Fae himself. There is a strange nostalgia in seeing the way they try to annoy the girl as if that will pull her out of the numb stupor she has fallen under. Eventually, she does look at him though. He is intrigued by her unique coloring and when he finds the strange pink of her eyes, his indifference fades slightly. He is quiet for a moment as her name slips free from quivering lips. When a fairy tries to remove another tangled blossom, he shakes his head slightly and steps closer to her. If things went according to plan today, Leuce would have an assortment of flowers caught in her mane as most of them did in the wildflower lands. The question the girl asks him is strained and he exhales slowly, recognizing that longing in her voice. “No.” Is all he says although his tone is not as gruff as it had been before. She is a scared and fragile thing but there is potential and that is enough for him. “Your mother is gone.” He finally says quietly and it is true enough. It didn’t matter if the foals mother was alive or dead, if the girl's presence here was by her parents choice or not. She was here now, alone and rejected. “But I can give you a new family. You will be wanted, Leuce.” obscene @leuce well done RE: Through thick and thin - leuce - 10-16-2021 i feel the sun coming up, rising from the east and i see the empire falling to her knees and i lost the line between her and me Leuce @Obscene |
