Through those times you are gone
You won’t do this alone
While she has been added to the ranks, her decision to stay in Nerine was not final and written in stone. She was trying on the kingdom, seeing how it fit. The humidity of Tephra (and it’s brooding leader) was still appealing despite her growing affection for the ocean. Her stay on the coast had been pretty low key, uneventful for the most part. She had only laid eyes on it’s ruler once during a brief meeting but she still was unsure of Nerine’s intentions, what the goal end was.
Still she was considered a part of the kingdom and would never want to be seen as a freeloader. With a stretch of feathery wings as dark as night, she throws herself into the salty air and heads inland. It doesn’t take her long to reach the field and instantly find a mare that draws her attention. It was hard not to, those mismatched eyes. The way she flung her body around as if fighting an invisible foe. Her own golden eyes narrow as downy appendages fold neatly and tuck into her sides. A sheen of sweat coats her fur despite the chill in the air. Eyes so wide she can see the whites, panicked.
The mare seems to calm briefly, her lips lightly covered in froth as she searches for something. Slowly she approaches, aware that her jaguar dapples may confuse an already mad woman to think she is something she is not. ”If you are lost perhaps I can help.” Her voice steady and calm, soft as she can be even though it’s not quite in her nature. Perhaps she would not be the best recruit but it was obvious the mare needed assistance and at least Nerine was safe.
