    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    A Beacon of White in a World of Shadows; Khaedrik
    #5

    A little breeze goes a long way

    He is curious;

    Not necessarily being curious like another foal usually was, exploring left and right. No, but he wants to know about the world, how things work, dissect them perhaps. Also, of course, he may be called curious-looking or curious-acting, though that wasn't what she was going for right then. Her appearance here must be new to him; new things must be studied.

    Yes, studied. That's the word.

    She feels his eyes, and the eyes of the shadows, stare at her appearance, somehow it just appears as if she is something to be considered first, to be taken in, and what she says is processed slowly. She flicks an ear towards the wolf when it moves, or rather, changes expression. She is too stubborn to give into the shadow by any means however; it is the boy who is in control, even if barely, he is. And he's not the same as them. Not necessarily hungry.

    Finally, the question is being answered. Khaedrik. She nods to take in the name, and again at the question. "I am. I only recently arrived in Beqanna, and Kagerus was so kind to show me Hyaline. It's a beautiful place to live." she tells him - he must know about Kagerus, since she has been a member of Hyaline for some time, at least that's what she told her. She does not know about their relationship as siblings just yet, they are very unalike in appearance to the unpractised eye - though perhaps more connected through the other world - but that's a world Ilma has never explored before and has no immediate need to.

    She watched the shadow wolf move, and tenses a little - relaxing immediately when it is called back. She tries to estimate Khaedrik and his shadow. "Are they part of you, or are you part of them?" she wonders. It had just seemed as if the shadow wolf was a self-thinking creature, but he is so in control, she does wonder if perhaps it is more of an unconscious creation of his own, magically enhanced, mind. Mind you, she does know little of how magic works or comes to be - but there seems little difference between the boy and his shadows when they move.

    Any fool knows men and women think differently at times, but the biggest difference is this: men forget, but never forgive; women forgive, but never forget.
