Kanalai rises from her bed of clovers, shaking off cool dew. It sticks to her coat awkwardly, making it matted and damp. She stands fully, looking around at the other horses grazing and communing. She's been back only a few days, already bored of the familiar scenery.
Kanalai had been raised by her mother in the field, when she was a filly. Her mother had passed away just a year ago, but before she did, Kanalai wanted to give her mother a head start at a peaceful rest. She had led her mother to the beach. She didn't go further, she kept away from the putrid water. She stayed with her mother and until she passed, her frail figure falling limp in the cold ocean sprayed night. Kanalai watched all types of horses go back and fourth on the beach, completely disregarding her and her mother.
So she went back to the field, through Sylva, then the Taiga, both smelling of metal and rust. The forest smelled like clean dirt and trees, a refreshing and pleasant aroma. Then to the field, back to the only place she'd known as home.
So here she stood, in the field, unacquainted with everyone else. She sighs, and looks for anyone who seems lonely as herself.
