The two return to the meadow after their feeble attempts were made to spread the Earth God's message to the northern regions. There wasn't much time to rest from the journey in this summer heat before they are presented with another task. Each and every individual had to fill a bucket with water. The God of the Earth is asking them to fill water buckets for drinking on the boat? He's going to flood the freaking world but he can't provide drinking water? If Dovahkiin had eyebrows, she would have raised one skeptically by now. Nevertheless, the predominantly black mare couldn't allow herself to lose this damn competition. Her pride wouldn't allow it. So when they were all dismissed, she picks her bucket up in her teeth and follows the pale pegasus. Dovahkiin hadn't had much of a chance to explore before coming into this mess so the only water source she knew about was the river she had followed near the meadow. And they were walking away from that particular water source. They went deeper into the woods until they came upon a lake of some sort. As much as she wanted to know more about the mare she had partnered up with, talking was difficult with the handle of a bucket gripped between her teeth. Instead, she remained silent as she moved in alongside the others. Dovahkiin steps into the lake, ignoring the film of sweat coating her neck and sides due to the sticky summer heat and their running around doing tasks for this.. god. Once in the water up to her knees, she holds her breath and shoves her nose under the surface until the bucket gurgles and submerges. Lifting her head up, she pulls the filled bucket out of the water. Moving carefully, she attempts to keep as much of the water from sloshing out as possible. Slowly she emerges from the lake and once on fairly level ground she carefully lowers her bucket. The unicorn raises her head once more and with sickly yellow-green eyes she glances from one horse to the next. "Name's Dovahkiin, newcomer to Helovia." and she offers a smile - which felt quite awkward on her face. Smirking was much more natural to the mare but something told her this wasn't the right time for such behaviors. [Dovahkiin and Elsa, ftw!] |
