Wasting it without a care in the world. She had her lover, her son. She had security in her home and a few friends. What more did she need? This was her happily ever after.
As time drained each day, with the turning of the hourglass, she had forgotten much of her past. The torture she had endured in her raising. Finding the courage to runaway from everything she knew. Only to find her saving grace here in Beqanna. Even that had it's challenges though. A few shifty run-ins with equines and creatures of the Underneath. In the end, nothing could stop her from finding happiness.
Today she searches the kingdom for her son, calling his name gently into the wind. Her gown of prestige feathers flowing elegantly behind her. The base of the volcano was the first place she'd look. The colt had an unhealthy fixation with fire. She had found herself warning him to steer clear of the lava flows so he did not misstep and burn, but he went anyhow. Defiant like all children were at his age. He would give her worry lines if it was the only thing he'd ever give her.
Gently she steps across one such channel of molted rock. Slowly making a circle around the base of the giant formation. Navy eyes scanning the area for any signs of the boy. "Phoebus?" She calls out, "Son?!" Worry straining her voice. Suddenly, there was a muffled sound coming from a dark crease in the mountain. Mother?! Help me! The flutter in her chest quickens as she reaches the opening. Eyes squinting to see within the tight quarters. The hole was just big enough for her petite frame to slide into. One careful step after another brings her deeper into the shadows. A steady clip of her hooves echoes off the stone walls. Clip Clop Cli...
"Nooooo...." With a shrill cry she is falling. Her wings useless in her downward spiral(but when were they ever anything more than just for show). Her body scrapes along jagged edges as she is pinballed back and forth. Limbs frantically try to catch hold of something, anything...
Silence.
She is unsure if she had gone unconscious due to fear or the pressure of falling, but when she comes to, her view is empty. Oh, she can still see but what she sees is nothing. A blank canvas with nothing but a name.
Her name, AuroraElis.
Rising cautiously to her hooves, her carmel face swivels to look around. Gone is the tropical flora and rocky terrain. The warm sea breeze coming off the granulated beaches and erupting mountain. It was all gone...
Her happily ever after gone.
