The light that shines so bright.
Well of course he draws them in. Or well, it had actually been the pale mare that had caught Gyps’ attention from high up in the sky, but even so, it wasn’t that strange that they had come. After all, only a few souls roamed at night. That didn’t make them bad or dark or dangerous, Gyps herself was out too after all, but it did hold something mysterious. And the black and blue woman was all for adventures, especially now she still could. Andras probably disagreed with her, but what he didn’t know wouldn’t harm him, or so she thought.
When she lifts her head, the glistering droplets roll down her skin and lips, before dripping in the same water as they had come from. Her ear had twisted in the pale one’s direction. What she had said caused Gyps’ lips to curl up, sharing an amused look with the other mare. ”When was life ever predictable?” she asks in return, fully smiling now. ”It is flexibility and the unknown that add a fun and thrilling twist to it.” For a moment she wonders where her words come from, what made her say them. She of all knew how unknown turns and twists could be bad as well as good.
With the dark and pale one in a conversation together, Gyps took a few steps forward. He had made her curious, curious enough to explore the water by herself. Was it really as good as he tried to make them believe? Anyway, she didn’t venture in far, just until the water stood to her fetlocks. She had to admit, the cool water felt nice against her skin. Turning around she meets his gaze, this time his question is directed at her, instead of at the pale mare. ”I can’t say I can, but I also cannot say I can’t.” Gyps had never tried to swim before, so she honestly doesn’t know. ”Guess I will have to try one day.”
Once she had stood into water that reached till her stomach, and wet the tips of her wings as she flared them widely in an attempt to scare a stallion away. But that stream hadn’t been fit for swimming, the tide was too strong. After that time Gyps hadn’t even thought of venturing into water that deeply, but she couldn’t say it didn’t intrigue her. Perhaps it was just as wonderful as flying. ”You talk casually about swimming, even inviting one to join, but at the same time you haven’t introduced yourself. You both know my name, but yours are still a mystery to me.” Although she seriously is interested to learn their names, her tune is playful and teasing, just as the slight glister in her eyes as they move from the dark to the pale figure. ”Care to enlighten me?”
Gyps
