She walks softly with her amethyst eyes closed, her head tilted up towards the mosaic canopy above. She can picture the fallen, moss covered log that she creeps up on and the new sapling that protrudes in a semi open space, hoping to one day be as giant and commanding as the other redwoods that surround it. She moves through her home gracefully -- peacefully.
Of course it has troubled her that Aten has been gone for so long, but she has convinced herself that if something tragic had happened to him that she would feel in deep inside her bones. She is convinced that the pain would be to much to mask with her ability and her inner being would crumble and dissolve into the roots of her home. These convictions are what keep her moving forward with the warm smile of the mother, wife, and friend that she is.
Forward, towards that epicenter of their forest that has in an odd way became a place of declarations, of heart break, of reassurance, and of family ever since Wolfbane and Lepis used it to throw their world into chaos.
When she finally reaches where her intentions have lead her she opens her eyes, the sun catching her deep, purple iris'. She couldn't deny that she was nervous, that she had no idea what she would say but she sends out the call to her fellow Taigans to come. Her voice had never reached as far as it did today, as it is right now.
Quiet, little Lethy. She was much more than that now. She stood proudly, not on top of that thrown that Wolfbane so callously led on but down in the meadow, surrounded by autumn flowers, where her family and friends would surely join her. The buckskin mare watched as they came and gathered, her gentle smile and amethyst eyes greeting each one with tenderness and gratitude. She reached out to each individual and handed them their own invisible wisp of peace, all while wrapping herself softly with her gift. Her breathing softened and her nerves stopped prickling the surface of her being.
"Thank you all for coming. I call you here today only to inform you of Aten's extended absence from Taiga, which I am sure you all have noticed. There is no doubt inside of me that he is okay, and I whole heart-ed believe that he will return soon. In the meantime, I have called you to ask for your blessing to step up while Aten is gone to run and protect our land. With that being said, anyone that knows me, knows that I am not a fighter but the peace I can offer should hold back any conflict until he returns - especially with help from all of you. If you have any other suggestions or opinions, I would love to hear them. Every voice matters right now."
As she waited and watched her gathering friends, each one brought a special memory to her heart. These horses weren't simply residences to her and this land wasn't simply that. They were all her home, and she'll be damned if something or someone happens to Taiga while Aten isn't here.
tldr; Lethy is calling a meeting to ask Taigans for their blessing to lead in Aten's absence. Gamergirl hasn't been active for a while and with all of this stuff going on in the world I first and foremost hope that she is okay, secondly I would slap myself if someone thought they could attack or steal Taiga away from us once again because she is inactive. (: I would like her added to the rankings as The Matron (thanks Star, for the idea) leading beside Aten. Also, this is an activity check.
