Mother... Please. Don't leave me.
It was happening again. The nightmares of abandonment. Where I watched my mother disappear into the ocean waves. Leaving me with nothing but a name on the granulated beaches of Nerine. Ruby eyes watch again as the scene replays in my mind. Screeching gulls call out in what sounds like laughter. I look up in disgust, a scowl apparent of my features. Upon looking back down she was gone, again...
With a winded gasp I draw in a deep gulp of air. Flinging my crown upwards as my ivory legs gather beneath me. My hooves dig into the earth as my weight is thrusted upwards. Standing square now I shake my head, tossing my dark tresses to settle on my neck. Nares flare as an irritated snort is expelled. Scarlett gaze shifts about to acknowledged I was still in the Forest.
They had left me here, soon to return they said. They had business to attend to, the ruby eyed stallion and his blueish grey companion. I had no quarrels with being left to my own vices - I was quite capable of being alone - I had a need though. A need to find some saltwater. My nares inhaled deeply and faint to the north was the smell of the ocean. I smile happily as I move forward at a quickened pace.
As I near the water this time there is not the usual sanded beaches of Nerine, but cliffs of various sizes. I halt at the edge to look out across the vast abyss. The updraft whipped my dark tresses as I stood now eyes covered. A spray of the crashing waves below blanket my flesh.
I am home.
I notice a cavern along the cliffs a bit further down. Nestled between more towering rock formations. My head tilts in curiousity. Nerine had cliffs but I had never seen a cave before. With a flick of my tail I again move forwards. Ebony ears flicker back and forth in uncertainty but I continued. That is until I was peering into the darkness inside. I could make out nothing with the lack of light. Raising my crown then lowering it to adjust my eyes... Still nothing. I contemplate if I should step into the gaping mouth or turn back to the sea...
I step forward. Curiousity getting the better of me.</p></div> <div class="dynast_name">Dynast</div> <div class="dynast_quote">Friends with the Monsters</div> <img class="dynast_image" src="https://images.fineartamerica.com/images/artworkimages/mediumlarge/1/red-jellyfish-denise-keegan-frawley.jpg"> </div> </center>
