Day's had passed, I'd been enjoying the warm kiss of spring, the tender shoots of grass that sprung in all their glory from the damp earth. Sunbathing has been on the top of my list today, and I stood off to the side, basking in the full glory of that burning star.
I heard the thud of hoof beats, not uncommon here, my ears fell back to the side, a sigh parted my lips. I heard them again, at this point closer, so I raised my head and directed my gaze in the direction of the stranger.
My ears pricked with intrigue, my interaction with others was limited and for a moment I startled, pinning my ears nervously in defense, unsure of what was to happen.
A gentle voice carried on the breeze, an introduction, Kreios, I mumbled under my breath, rolling the letters around on my tongue like skittles. My attention peaked with the question, what was I doing here? I nickered softly to the steed, pricking my flattened ears and gazing curiously. Honestly I'm not sure, I just kind of found myself here, and it seemed like an ok place to stay for a while. I've been wandering some time... My voice trailed off, disappearing into the trees. Wandering was all I'd known, it felt foreign interacting with this stranger. Lifting my head a little, a warm breeze traveled across my frame, it almost tickled and I shook. Fuzz flew off my hide, and under that mess was a copper penny, just waiting to shine. I'm Fillie, it's nice to meet you, I think. I tilted my head, curious of this horse and where this would lead. A home maybe? Wandering was so lonely and winters were hard alone, traveling from place to place.
