I See Fire; Wichita, Any

[Jason]

Jason watched Witchita when she lifted her head and opened her eyes. He recalled the first time he had come to the Gates so many years ago. It had retained its beauty and majesty throughout the years, and he was glad to share it with such a worthy mare. His eyes soon drifted to the sight before him so he too could admire the snow-covered kingdom. He then noted the trees parting and from its branches emerged a friendly face. ”Fiasko!” Jason instinctively exclaimed upon seeing his friend. He was glad to see her. She had become a quick confidant and a joy to have around. Not a moment had Jason ever minded her deformity in fact he found it to be of curious beauty. He trotted forward and brushed his forehead playfully against Fiasko’s shoulder before settling beside her. Witchita approached seemingly just as comfortable with the other mares’ presence as himself. ”This is Witchita.” He spoke happily. ”She’s…” His voice broke when he heard the approach of another horse. This one was familiar as well, and Jason simply nodded his head in greeting. He didn’t know Mast nearly as well as Fiasko, but he was sure that Witchita deserved an overzealous welcome. Jason shifted his stance so that he stood perpendicular to both Fiasko and Witchita. From this point he could easily see Mast and contribute more to the conversation. Witchita soon recognized the others concern and responded with as much spunk as Jason had come to expect. ”Well I sure am glad that we made it here without any more trouble. You’ll have plenty of time to get cleaned up and settled in, Witchita.” He shifted his weight. ”Perhaps we should head to the river to catch a drink and you can get to know everybody along the way.” jason magical son of eol and ashling
