[private] light and shadows

[Agetta]

Things after getting back from the afterlife had been… well, they hadn’t been boring. Certainly, it had given her a lot to think about - and she was not even currently aware of the full ramifications of what they had helped do that day on the beach. She had no idea just how not boring things had gotten all across Beqanna. Still, she had no shortage of things to think about. Agetta was still unsure what memories had been taken from her but she felt happier than she remembered being in a long time. Seeing Plume, both in the afterlife and somehow here had certainly helped as well. A small smile danced across her face as she moved through the forest. She hoped to find him soon, longed to spend the rest of this night with him, and hoped like she hoped every day that his presence in the meadow had not been a mirage or a trick. That a glimmer of good luck might be in store for her. Night had come, clouds obscuring the stars even in those few spots between the canopy where the sky could be started. A spring rain was due, she suspected, but her mind was not on the weather. It was buzzing and whirling with so many other things. Although she was certainly happier than she had felt in a while, it did not lessen the list of things the white mare worried about. Who would she be if she was not fretting about one thing or a hundred things? She had just pulled on her snow leopard form to change the nature of her eyes, making them more feline and give her the ability to see in the dark, when the snap of a twig in the woods nearby her disrupts her thoughts and causes her to jump a little in her skin. In that same moment light flashes out from her body – beams of it emanating from her and cutting through the trees surrounding her. It is gone in a moment, plunging the woods back into inky blackness. “Well, that’s new.” Stopped now, she’s momentarily blinded from the transition of deep night, to bright, and back into the darkness – midnight blue eyes blinking rapidly to try to help her eyes readjust. we are made of starstuff
