Eager to Learn, Eager to Grow Up - Amani - 11-28-2014 Amani
Just A Picture To Burn
Today was a good day. I woke early, which was starting to become a habit for me since I had been named a disciple of the Throat. I longed to have a closer relationship with the God of the Sun, to meet with him and learn from him... However with the last shake up of higher ranks, it had not been meant to be. I was closer still than just a mere mare among the ranks, but not as close as Tandavi was now or Cera had been. Ah yes, Cera. My muzzle turned to a soft grin at the thought of the golden painted knight. If it were not for him, I would not be here in the Throat... If it were not for him... I wouldn't have this silly grin plastered all over my face. There was just something about spending time with the newly appointed Forger that I could not get enough of. I shake my head gently, clearing my mind of the closeness of the caves of the Heart. I head off from the Oasis, choosing to stay on the sands instead of flight. My destination is simple, the fire of the diviner. Every morning for sometime now, I go there first to pray to the God of the Sun for wisdom. I know better than to ask him for anything for me, as it is not my place. Not at our herd's link to our Lord. No, if I was to do that I would go to the floating island or to the Vein of the Gods. I kneel before the fire, offering up a simple prayer. "Our Lord, I come to ask simply for you wisdom for our Diviner and the rest of our herd as we face uncertain times. Many of us seek to find the one responsible for all the recent murders. I ask for Your protection for those who follow You and those who call Your patron lands home." I stand, not expecting an answer, just hoping that he would indeed hear my prayer and keep our small family safe. The sun's rays warmed my back slightly. The bone chilling winds kept my wings tucked tight to my frame. Now what to do? I move slowly away from the fire, the sound of ice and sand crunching under my hooves. Perhaps I should meet others of the herd today? Well, to be honest I know I need to since I am just below those who lead each rank... The only one high within the wise ones was our Sultan and Sultana.... Speaking of which... I haven't seen either one since the herd meeting. Surely they just like the others of higher rank have been busy... "Sed interdum rutrum urna, sed pellentesque sapien tempor in." @[Gaucho] - Time for them to meet! <3 RE: Eager to Learn, Eager to Grow Up - Gaucho - 11-29-2014

I was almost startled by the eagles made of flame. Was this a sign from the God of the Sun. I smiled, but my eyes brighten as I see our Sultan coming towards me. These birds must belong to him. The heat warmed my chilled bones, I stretch out my wings some before returning them to my sides. Amani I lowered my head slightly before looking up and meeting my Sultan's gaze. "Gaucho" I could not help but smile being in the presence of the one Father Sun had chosen as lead. This was the first time we had spoken on our own, most times I had even seen him was in the herd meetings. "Birdsong is soon. Gaucho glad when frost and cold is gone." I nodded again. "I will be glad when the warmth of BirdSong returns, but even more eager for the heat of TallSun." The blast of fire startled me, as I was not used to being around others who had fire magic. In the Sultan's presence my own fire magic seemed to flow freely in my veins. I focused, deciding to try using my magic for something different. Three small balls of fire appeared around me, and I moved them along the sand around the Sultan and I to try and help warm the sands. If the sands stayed warm, maybe it would in turn help us stay warm as we stand and speak. I keep my focus on my magic slightly, while returning to the conversation at hand. "How are you this morning?" My eyes only then focus in on the snake moving among his antlers and forelock. I took her as yet another bonded. "Who is this in your antlers?" What can I say, I am a curious young girl. Anything to get my mind off of Cera.... Oh darn it there I go again thinking of him. Ha, I really must stop this. After all, for one I am in the presence of one of my leaders... For two, not like Cera would ever notice me in that fashion.. Would he?

My Sultan agreed that the warmth of TallSun. Or rather, that is what I assume his yes means. Then again, the old saying goes assuming things can only make an ass out of you and me. Well. Let's hope that was not the case this time. Gaucho seemed surprised at my magic. Had I exactly hidden my talent.. No not at all. But I don't just go showing off to everyone I know... Okay okay, I did show it off one time.. To show Cera that I could be cool to. To try and impress him. Fat load of help that did. I'm no more noticeable now that I was as a nobody. However my leader seems to approve of my magic. Then the subject is changed. Of course it has to change to the subject that I want to avoid. "Fine. Looking for Cera. Need his help with a project for Throat. Of course Cera... Always Cera. He went on to ask if I knew him... Of course I know him, how could I have a crush on him if I didn't know him. I was really good at hiding my feelings. So I hope. I smile and nod. "Cera is the one who brought me here. If I see him I will be sure to tell him that you are looking for him." I was greatful at the change of subject yet again. This time to his companion. I nodded to her as well. "It is a pleasure to meet you Mara. I hope I never have to find out just how powerful or poisonous you are." Inside however my heart yearns for the connection these two have. To have someone, always. "Sed interdum rutrum urna, sed pellentesque sapien tempor in." @[Gaucho] RE: Eager to Learn, Eager to Grow Up - Gaucho - 01-06-2015
