 THE PLAGUE Descaro
Softly the snow crunched beneath his hooves, some areas of it deeper than others, the steppe was not always the easiest to negotiate. Even in Tallsun. The snow became more scarce as he approached the mountain pass, silent steps turning to sharp clopping noises against the weathered floor. Descaro always found the way into the Basin rather eerie, like something was going to jump out at him any minute as the Borealis in the sky reflected creepy blue and green hues off the walls. A shiver crept up his body and he quickly increased his pace into a swift canter, powering into his herd land like a long lost hero on a triumphant return. Tail gliding behind him like a proud banner.
The Soldier sloped downwards and onto the permafrost ground, slowing into a walk before looking around with his mind a blank. He had returned just in time for the start of his guard duty but found himself rather bored at the prospect of it. The Unicorn's of the Aurora Basin had such a reputation that drama came few and far between, that being said, when it did come it was a rather exciting occasion. So Descaro mulched off in direction of the caves, seeking out some company in his sudden wake of boredom, maybe another Soldier would be kind enough to join him in patrols. He seriously doubted that but one could always hope. Descaro skirted around the peaceful lake and finally found his way to the series of caves where he found a lone, battered looking pegasus mare. The Soldier raised his head and stared at her for a moment, emotions mixing from outrage to intense curiosity. For this mare to be injured, did that mean somebody else had seen her and left her alive within the Basin. Descaro snorted at the incompetnace of that one, unknown being. To leave something so fragile. What confused him more was the fact that the mare had remained, even though she was clearly injured. Why not return to where she came from? His frown furrowed deeper and he took steps towards her. "Who are you? You must know the Basin does not tolerate those without a horn, so why would you remain here?" Each question echoed the surprise in his mind. He wondered if she was somebody's prisoner that he had not heard about, or whether she was simply stupid. WARRIOR  |
