Having heard tales of an island above the earth the girl's curiosity insisted that she see this spectacle for herself. It had taken a little bit of searching before she managed to spot it but there was no missing the lumbering landmass floating..yes floating in the sky. How in the hell... Cutting herself off at that she just shook her head figuring it was easier to not come up with a plausible solution as to how this hunk of rock was floating up here with her. There are just some things in this lifetime that are better left unexplained. Beating her massive wings against the wind as she climbed higher the scent of darkness lingered in the air. Inhaling a deep breath to confirm her identification there was no doubt in her mind about what the strange odor was. Blood and quite a lot of it. From above majority of the landmass appeared to be tranquil and peaceful but she knew all too well that things were never as perfect as they appeared. Hidden deep beneath the layers there was always someone who dared to test the boundaries between light and dark world.

It did not take long to discover where the bloody scene lay stained against the earth like an infection. Death always seemed to draw a crowd regardless of the cause be natural or an act of sin. Landing carefully amongst the growing crowd the hybrid wandered forward to see who the victim might be. It was doubtful that she would know the beast but perhaps she might be able to deduct what had happened to this poor soul. She was not frightened of death unlike many of those around her with their terrified expressions and stressed postures. She accepted it as a part of life but respected that there was always a time and a place for it and this definitely was not the place for it. Whoever had left the lifeless pegasus here had wanted the body to be discovered but why?

Listening silently as the gods spoke of the hideous crime she attempted to pull what she could from the nervous words of the bystanders. She always loved a good mystery and what better than tracking down a murderer. Turning away once the talk had ceased to turn up much useful information the mare felt inclined to see what she could add to the investigation. Perhaps in her process she might just discover the perfect way to get away with murder without anyone suspecting a thing. That would make things much easier when she would take down her brother and strip him of the crown that was rightfully hers. So where did the black hairs fit into all of this she mused silently. Surely they could easily figure out who killed the mare if they could only find their owner. Anyone got a bloodhound?

Lost in her thoughts she wandered without much thought as to where she was going. Wait a minute.. she was going about this the wrong way. Pausing mid step to glance around her she spotted a pair chatting nearby. If she was going to figure this out it might be good to see what others might know given her lacking knowledge about the lands here. Wickering a soft greeting to the two she approached them cautiously. "Hello, I'm Rhea. I do apologize if i'm interrupting something. " She introduced politely figuring she would win more flies with sugar than vinegar. "I just don't know how someone could do that to that poor mare? Its just..just wrong." Frowning with a shake of her head she allowed the softer side of her personality to show through for once.
