Kahlua

Having finally completed the tasks that the Lord of Fire had requested of her, the queen found herself wandering about the island and considering what to do. There was no shrine here on the island, yet it floated above the veins. Surely this place was as holy as the ground below it. And, truth be told, now that she had finally gotten back up here, she was not so eager to return to the mainland. She had spent quite a bit of time in the Edge lands recently and she wanted to have fun up here now, instead of being forced into responsibility down below.

On her back, the queen’s dragon rode silently, his mind probing into hers despite the fact that she was still not so certain about this bond. And yet, despite her fears, she had slowly grown to appreciate the presence of the young beast. He was a good friend to her already, patient and willing even while she was frightened. Was this the love that others had spoken of? Beautiful, not frightening? Wings to lighten the load, not chains to drag her down? She had been uncertain of the claims and yet… perhaps the love she had known as a child was not what love really was. If only there were so simply to believe.

To her left, Kahlua considered wandering towards a pool of water that was running over the edge of the island as a waterfall, but that seemed an affront to the god who claimed light and fire as his to command. Instead, she veered right, heading towards a rocky but open parcel of land, warmed by the early morning sun. “Sun Lord?” she queered aloud softly, though it was really her mind that reached out to the deity. Crawling up her neck in curiosity as to what she was doing, the little blue chortled his draconian song.

Kahlua’s neck bent downwards to the pressure, her nose moving towards her chest in a sign of respect. The Lady Moon had told her that queens did not kneel, but surely it was proper to bow her head to the lord who had been so kind to grant her this quest. So she stood in the field, praying that he might come to her so that she could thank him for forcing her into these uncomfortable philosophical discussions that she had learned so much from.


@[Official] Turning in the quest she was granted here.
Non-racist unicorn, racist unicorn, non-racist equine, and racist equine. For the final thread, I know it is not completed, but as I have been waiting 7 weeks for a reply and have reminded Selkie about it, and also because Sorrow is the only character currently active on site that could fulfil this requirement, Tamme said I could turn in the quest without it being complete. If Selkie does post to the thread again, I will complete it.
