I'm the fire that burns [CLOSED] - Azzaron - 01-16-2013 The bedraggled form of Azzaron appeared at the Throat. The sun's heat burned on his back and his wings. His hocks still screamed with the burning pain. When will this torture ever end? His voice within his mind rang out, the question lingered. He failed to remember the Sun God's words. Did he say the end of the season? With a shake of his regal head he walked on, trying to rid his mind of the thoughts. A hideous cough came from his maw, or, his throat. He felt the ashes in his lungs make breathing a thousand times harder. So much pain. Azzaron felt like wailing, but a good warrior never cries, never admits to his pain. With a great sigh he keeps himself going, coughing constantly. Even as the sand got into his burns, Azzaron kept from yelling by biting his lower lip. Azzaron's fiery spirit and stubbornness wouldn't allow him to give up. He would deal with this pain until who knows how long. His deep red eyes were set on the sandy desert before him. He had heard of a herd who lives here. The herds' patron god was said to be the sun god, and Azzaron wanted to live amongst these horses and teach them the way of the true sun god worshipper. Azzaron coughed some more, he could only feel pain in his chest and his hocks. He just wished Birdsong would be over already so his torture would end. He grunted, coughed and dropped to his knees before getting back up in a struggle. He looked around, his red eyes scanning the desert. Now if only I could find a member of this herd. Ugh. I need some water. Azzaron sighed, coughing. He needed to find a river, and quickly. He smacked his dry lips together, his red eyes glanced around the area. Then he spotted it. A beautiful shimmering river. Without hesitation Azzaron launched himself forwards, tripping over himself to get to the river. As soon as he was at the edge of the river he stuck his muzzle right in, drinking as much water as he could. He dipped his hocks into the cooling water too, letting out anyway sigh before he stepped out of the river, letting the sun dry him off.

RE: I'm the fire that burns [Open/Joining] - Azzaron - 01-17-2013 With the sound of another coming Azzaron tilts his head to see whom it may be. An equine with a chocolate coat and a creamy mane speaks to Azzaron, clearly not caring about his current state. The cough that came from Azzaron was followed by a small spout of blood. The crimson liquid dripped from his mouth, and stained the red sandy earth. He lifted his head up, a lopsided smile placed across his battered face. "I'm called Azzaron. It's nice to meet you, Rowan." Azzaron bowed his head before coughing again, there was no blood this time. "I come to seek a home. Although I'm not in such a great state this state I'm in is only what the sun god asked of me. Soon, when birdsong ends I shall gain magic for my suffering."Azzaron paused, realizing he must be boring the stranger, Rowan, half to death."Sorry for the whole story on how I got into this state, but anyway, yes, I would like to reside in the herd that lives in this desert." Azzaron finally shuts his mouth. He waited for the chocolate mare's response. Yet another cough came from the throat of the stallion, and he stooped down, slipping into the clear waters of the lake. He stuck his muzzle straight into the water, trying to moisten his currently dry throat. I'm so close, yet so far to earning my magic. I must keep my sanity while this quest goes on. The stallion breathed in and out a few times, remaining in the water. He swished his tail and stretched his wings out, tired from his long and painful journey to the throat. He turned back to the mare, waiting for a reply from her. [[Kind of bad post. So sorry. :/]] RE: I'm the fire that burns [Open/Joining] - Rowan - 01-20-2013
RE: I'm the fire that burns [Open/Joining] - Azzaron - 01-20-2013 With ears perked I nod, listening to the words of the chocolate mare. My lungs grasp for air desperately and I hack away. If only my quest were over or easier in some way. I think to myself, huffing. I stand there, I'm far enough in the water so it's just high enough to brush the bottom of my abdomen. My legs are completely engulfed in the water and my wings are draped into the clear and cooling liquid. My hocks still feel as though their burning, and I grunt. The water wasn't exactly helping but it felt good against the heat of the sun. With all the pain I have I'm surprised I made it this far. From the Steppe to the Throat, it took me awhile but I got here quicker than I expected. Walking was pain wrenching so I flew most of the way. Too bad the Throat wasn't closer. I snort, looking back at the mare, Rowan. I finally speak, my voice hoarse. "Thank you. It would be great if you could call your Sultana." I bow my head slightly to the mare in gratitude while I try and muster a somewhat smile. I raise my head, slowly lifting my feathery appendages and shaking them the slightest bit to get any water off of them. Then I fold them back at my side, looking at the mare with deep red rubies. Thoughts rambled on in my mind as I wondered how this 'Sultana' looked and acted. Hopefully there was another Sultan or Sultana if this one is too aggressive. I had big plans. Big plans indeed. I look at the creamy maned mare, my voice ringing out, my words directed at her. "So, what is your Sultana like, exactly?" I ask her, staring at her with a serious face. My palomino coat collects the heat of the sun beating down on my back, making me sweat. The salty liquid coats my body in no time, and I dip myself lower into the water. Then I glance back up, checking to see if Rowan was still there. After taking a few gulps of water I lifted my head, waiting for the chocolate mare to speak.
