Roll up a joint, or don’t. Just follow your arrow, wherever it points. Things were slowly returning to the normal routine I had grown used too when I was a warrior for the Windtossed Foothills, only this time it was under the rule of a different King and Queen and the boarders were different because I was no longer in the Foothills. Quite the opposite actually, as I was now a Protector for those who resided in the herd called the World's Edge. And what a beautiful edge of the world it was, lead by two just and wonderful leaders that had welcomed me back into the ranks as if I had never even left them. But, what had been done was done and today I was back to patrolling. Excitement jittered through my veins at a constant rate as yellow painted hooves tore at the blades of grass that grew quite abundantly over this portion of the Earth. What exactly was causing the excitement was the true question, was it the fact that I was happy to be back to work instead of the constant training I had been going through the last season? Or the fact that there was a whisper in my ear of something interesting that would happen today. I wasn't quite sure what I was expecting to happen as I wandered along the border of the lands, alert in every way except mentally as my mind continued to wander off in random directions in hope of finding the handsome flaming winged bay stallion and his wonderful but blind companion. Even though I had been back to wandering the lands of the Edge for about a week now I still had yet to see the stallion that had oddly won me over so quickly. But that was no matter, eventually he would simply be a fleeting memory that made me smile a little on a gloomy day, for all I knew he had left in search of his own closure. A sad sigh tore from between my rosy kissers as I thought of the few brief moments that we had shared together in the darkest of times. Yellow painted hooves ceased their forward motion as sadly lit orchid eyes were closed momentarily by ivory lids. It was strange that I had yet to see the stallion that I had thought had feelings for me as well, but I had never been a good one at reading others. Snorting softly once I shook my painted skull and the thoughts flew out into the breeze that flowed easily around me. Things would get better and questions would be answered all in due time, but for now, it was time to end this hunger that was starting to pang at my barrel. Maybe someone would be wandering around out here, their own skulls filled to the brim with annoying thoughts that they just wanted to go away as well. Or maybe I would be left alone until my next shift started and then things would go back to normal because I would be too busy to think.

Roll up a joint, or don’t. Just follow your arrow, wherever it points. I was so lost in my thoughts as my yellow painted hooves moved my well-muscled, but yet still slightly feminine frame through the tall grasses that grew along the edge of the shattered walls. Orchid pools followed along the glittering, cracked wall, not quite focused on missing sections that varied in both size and locations throughout the once pristine wall that had protected the members of the Edge for so very long. But now it was gone, and gone for good so it seemed. The crafters had too many other tasks at hand to worry about repairing something a Queen who was no longer even around had built. Long ivory lashes smacked against my high cheekbones momentarily as the mental haze of being lost in thought began to drift away as if being pushed off by a light spring breeze. Once I managed to focus once more on reality it appeared I had traveled along the wall much further than I had expected too, I had nearly reached the gate in which I had entered upon my return to the lands of the Edge. The gate in which I met the handsome, but awfully shy, Dragomir. The gate where I had assisted in comforting the tearful Moon Doctor as the paint stallion and I reassured her that she had not in fact interrupted anything other than a simple greeting. My chestnut harks swiveled lazily as I thought over the short period of time since I had came back to the place that I called home. Things seemed to be turned over on their backs, but slowly it was being returned to normal...very, very slowly. A light snort tore through my rosy paper thins as the sound of another approaching pulled me out of my thoughts once more. My white washed skull turned over my shoulder to see the Stormbringer, massive impressive wings and all headed in my direction. Before I could think twice my bodice twisted so I was facing the King as his bright, shining crown lowered in a greeting. A gentle smile stretched at the corners of my lightly pinked kissers as my skull rose back to it's original resting position. Orchid pools settled lightly upon the stallion's sky blue eyes as I nodded ever so slightly. "Hello, Kaj! I would be honored if you were to join my company." I smiled once more, tilting my skull in the direction that I had been wandering before allowing my painted frame to follow suit. I knew that Kaj would follow along, it would be nice to have good company for today's patrol...maybe he would help keep my mind tied to my surroundings rather than in the clouds.

Roll up a joint, or don’t. Just follow your arrow, wherever it points. It was amusing, the fact that I had been on guard with the arrival of the King, if he weren't so easy to spot in the darkness of the trees I likely would have questioned him until I was happy that he truly was someone that I could trust in the borders of the Edge. It wasn't that I was entirely paranoid that something bad would come of having some strange herd member wandering around the herd, but ever since Aurelia's blow up on the members of the Asylum. I wasn't quite sure what to believe or what to do with some of our members. But instead, it was just Kaj, the King who had welcomed me back with a warm embrace after I had left in order to get a few things dealt with internally. The King smiled back at my greeting before his own charcoaled kissers parted to allow a stream of lyrics loose. But so far, Kaj was one of the few that enjoyed being in my presence. Maybe my markings caused a few of the others to feel uncomfortable, making them think of the stallion Gaucho who was a well known fighter and not the politest of creatures. But we had been brought up by entirely different tribes, the markings on our bodies were even a foreign language to each other, but that didn't stop others from assuming. I relaxed as the stallion walked beside me, his massive wings tucked in close to his body as if to give me more room than I would have had if they were even slightly spread. The silence was welcomed with open arms as we walked side by side along the wall that marked off the Edge from the rest of the world, but it didn't seem it would last much longer when I heard the gust of air being sucked into the stallion's lungs before his lyrics filled the air. I couldn't quite tell if he was truly concerned as to my well-being or if he was just being a good and polite King that he was so well known for. My white washed skull bobbed ever so slightly as the corners of my rosy kissers turned up ever so slightly as I thought of my welcoming party back into the place that I happily called home. The shy, but charming paint, Dragomir, and then the emotionally shaken Moon Doctor. Both of which had seemed pleased upon my return. "I am settling back in extremely well, thank you! How are you liking the new found royalty?" I wasn't sure if my question was entirely appropriate, but it had already been asked and there was no way to swallow words once they had already been allowed free.

Everything between us seemed to fall silent, the world filled with the sound of our hooves beating the ground beneath us rhythmically as the birds chattered away in the canopies of the trees that grew not too far off to the side of us. Before the Edge, forests had made me wary, my preferred terrain being wide open spaces with plenty of room to run and nowhere for enemies to hide without being seen first. But something about the way the mist rolled and curled between the trunks of the towering trees and the way that the silence was almost never actually silent was relaxing and beautiful all at the same time, I knew I was home here. Finally home. I had to admit, it did help that the Stormbringer and the Sunshower had welcomed me so fullheartedly into their home, even after I had gone away for some time. The rest of my herdmates were easy to get along with as well, for the most part, Aurelia, the gold dusted mare had been the only one who seemed to rub me the wrong way but then I hadn't really given her much of a chance, maybe she would turn out to be fine. The Edge was a peaceful place and those who didn't want that didn't belong here. It was then that the handsome stallion alongside me spoke up, asking how I was settling back into the swing of things within the grasp of the broken wall. A light smile spread across my features as I thought once more over how easily I had slid back into the routine around here, but before I could think twice the question over how the buckskin enjoyed royalty was racing from my vocal chords to the little bit of air between us.
