“Nazween.” The sound of her name and friendly nicker pull her from her daydream, and Nasreen looks up to the familiar figure of her teacher. “Dragomir,” she responds with a gentle smile. She is happy to see a familiar face, and one that is not Kahlua’s at that. It is not that she doesn’t love her dearest friend; it is simply that she cannot bear the thought of letting her down. “It’s wonderful to see you again,” she answers in response to his query, delicately avoiding the subject of her wellbeing. For the time being, it’s easier to ignore the feelings of inadequacy that have surrounded her recent promotion, so that she does, instead turning a curious eye to the trinket that Dragomir carefully hangs on the nearest tent post. Before she can inquire about it, however, another mare approaches the pair. “Your light show is very beautiful; did you make these yourself?” the buckskin unicorn murmurs, joining the Edge folk. Nasreen tilts her head at Dragomir, wondering the same thing—were these glass spires his creation? “I cannot take the credit for that,” she replies, “but it is striking, isn’t it?”

To her surprise, yet another mare is drawing closer to the group. It seems as if the little spectrums have caught the eyes of more than one curious observer, the princess thinks, watching the pale mare walk up. She introduces herself as Elsa, a mason from the Hidden Falls. “Hello,” Nasreen returns politely, “I’m Nasreen. It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Out of habit and Th’orquian etiquette, she bows her head to her fellow pegasus.

When she lifts her head again, she is surprised and delighted to see a friend standing before her. “Rei!” she cries, reaching out her muzzle in greeting. Her acquaintance with Rei may be recent, but Nasreen feels as if she has known the spotted pegasus for much longer than a week—after all, adventuring together has created the beginnings of what she hopes will be a strong bond. Her friend seems to be thinking along the same vein, for the first question out of her smiling mouth is an inquiry about adventure. “Not…quite,” she tells her quietly. The smile slips slightly from her face as she recalls her conversation with Kahlua. The thought occurs to her that perhaps Rei will understand her dilemma. Maybe when the others have wandered off, she can pour her heart out to someone she is not afraid of disappointing. For a moment, she is lost in thought, but thankfully, she is saved by her friend’s endearing chatter. Nasreen drifts out of her own world to find Rei introducing herself to the company, and she smiles at the mare’s easy nature.

Now that a rather sizeable group has gathered, it does not come as a shock when a final two creatures are added to their company. First comes a young Appaloosa mare, about Nasreen’s own age, followed by an even younger horned pegasus colt. The princess looks on with amiable interest, nodding in welcome as they walk amongst the lights and into the mass of horseflesh. The mare does not give a name, but the boy introduces himself as Ilios. The Th’orquian pegasus stifles a laugh as Ilios extends a tiny muzzle to the tent post, wondering aloud what it is. He reminds her of her younger brother, so curious and full of life. “It’s glass,” she answers merrily, nosing at it herself. “And apparently, it comes in all shapes and sizes,” she muses, soft words more for herself than for anyone else. “I wonder…is there anything that cannot be made with the stuff?”

OOC:

Congratulations to Sikeax, Rei, and Ilios! Here are the results of the roll:

So, since Rei’s item is the simplest of those drawn, she’ll do that one first! Then, going in order of most simple to most complex, she’ll do Sikeax’s and then Ilios’ items. If Rei can reply IC about what pretty things she imagines can be made of glass, the fun will begin shortly :)
