His mother has told him plenty of stories.
Stories about the Winds and the Stars and the River. Stories about kingdoms come and gone. Stories about magic. She had been more tentative with those (and rightly so when her eldest child is as apt to blaze his way across Beqanna. He doesn’t need the firestarter that the Mountain could provide.)
Still, how does a horse of Beqanna ignore the pull of the Mountain? It is the heart of this place, as iconic to this land as the volcano is to Tephra or the towering trees of Taiga. Even if a horse thinks that they can avoid the call of the Mountain, all of Beqanna’s residents cross paths with Magic in one form or another.
Nashua is a wanderer. His spirit is happiest in exploring places unknown, in the adrenaline rush of things yet experienced. Of the things that might come and the events that might happen. He and the unexplored, the uncharted, the undiscovered congregate together at the base of the Mountain and the yearling pegasus can feel it illuminating his soul with each step he takes.
He will turn around and return to Taiga - back to Yanhua and the rest of his family - but right now, the Mountain is calling and Nashua answers by climbing higher, into the unknown.
ooc - Nash would like a PQ to express his invisibility please

"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

It is indeed the heart, and perhaps you can feel it there. There's something old and deep within the Mountain, something that feels alive. Though you feel it, there is nothing else that comes but the feeling of something ancient and powerful.
*** Nashua has rolled a 3 and will not receive a quest. You can try again in 1 RL month. |
