With a gulp he swallowed his fright, and let his pride endure. He would not be scared by what was to follow, if it was something bad. Instead, he took his gaze up to the dark heavens and waited.
Then it came.
His pillars almost felt like jelly at the odd images that shot their way through the odd constellation, it was so out of the ordinary. Something that bore tusks almost seem to dance below, through the frondescence of the dense Deep Forest, and he followed it. Stupid to do so, perhaps, but his curiousity had gotten the upper hand. The creature's orbs were enough to drag the silvered brute in. It seemed to be pulling him to find something, and as confused as he was, he confidently strode through, his elegant frame almost casting an eerie ghost-like figure across the terra firma.
He halted at a large fir tree. It's character almost seemed to be completely untainted by Frostfall's bite, and Andash could almost feel the hope that it gave to every creature. With a sigh, he hoped that the bitter season would end, soon... Through his thoughts, his icy pools cast a glance at a silhouette of a figure that stood nearby. And then a female voice sounded through the chilly air. It was a voice that he thought was familiar, but could not quite figure out who the voice belonged to.
Wracking his brain fiercely, he was answered. The voice spoke of his name, and tense muscles that he scanned became relaxed. It was Cassiopeia. His own burly muscles began to relax, and he smiled back warmly at the duchess. It was comforting to see his friend again, after what felt like such a long time.
"Cassiopeia. It has been too long, my friend," his smile could have almost split his crown in two, it was that large. He stepped forward to press his visage on her neck in welcoming, before continuing, "I see you have gained more magic?"
Andash chuckled, thinking back to the mellay that he had just gone through. It certainly was impressive, whatever had happened. He knew that it had to be the charcoal vixen's making, or else it wouldn't have alerted her.
"
To be second is to be the first of the ones that lose."
