"Tell Me Something Sweet To Get Me By"

The mare was feeling rather guilty as of late, feeling relatively useless to the herd with her duties as a Specter. It seemed she didn't really do much of anything, and training the stealth ranks below her seemed almost a moot point. The skittish male made a terrible decision at targeting a stallion of the Basin, ignoring the peace treaty, and then completely vanished. And with the murderer running around on the loose, Jahzara was beginning to feel that it was only a matter of time before one of her family would become the next victim. 'You should talk to Kahlua soon about that, see if she's found out anything recently.' The voice belonged to the hallucination that was wondering beside the Arabian vixen, the imaginary best friend of Jahzara, Lily. The golden mare dipped her muzzle in agreement to her friend's suggestion, sighing softly as they wandered through the forest towards the cliffs.

Jahzara had grown to find comfort at the cliffs of the World's Edge, finding peace in being able to look over the ocean and think. The mare missed the lighthearted feeling she felt when she first joined the World's Edge, the laughter that came with ease and the silly games she would play with Lily. The importance of responsibilities were beginning to take it's toll on the child-like mare, stealing away her time and making her life feel mundane, boring and dull. Lily wasn't particularly happy about the situation either, put she kept her mouth shut to allow Jahzara to do what she needed to do. The hallucination knew how special it was to the Arabian mare to be considered important enough to have a higher ranking position and the job of keeping her family safe.

When they reached the cliffs, Lily vanished from the mare's right side into a puff of violet smoke, reappearing to the mare's left. 'Hey Jay, do you realize we've been here for a whole year already?' Jahzara hadn't thought of that, her eyes widening slightly at the realization. "Really? A ye- Lily, you know I don't like you on that side..." Jahzara's words whined, insisting that her friend move to her good eye's vision. Lily merely grinned before waddling over to Jahzara's right side once again.'Yeah! A whole year! Forgettin' things already, ya old fart?' "Hey! I'm not old!" With that, Jahzara playfully leaped after the figment of her imagination with a burst of laughter. The chase turned back into the woods, the mare's giggling echoing through the trees as Lily ran as fast as her stubby little legs could take her into the mist. No one had judged the mare for her hallucinations in this land, and the golden princess was now accustomed to being able to freely play with Lily or converse with her others without fear. But still, how strange it must have been to everyone else? To see their Specter talking to herself or giggling away in a game with someone that no one else could see or hear?
