Scarecrow

There is a certain revelation in having someone you can count on. There were no more excuses of pent up feelings. It was a nice relief, like a weight that had been pressing upon his chest was lifted. He felt so light, and airy. The walk back from the Throat was both exciting and nerve-wrecking at the same time.

Having her by his side made everything a little bit better. Especially with the flowers all tied up still in his mane. He'd keep them there as long as he could, and wouldn't let it go unless they decided to fall off naturally. Crossing back into the meadow, they laid out their wondrous collection of flowers and grasses. It was nice to be rid of the stringy grass, after having it sit in his mouth for a while, it tasted a lot worse than usual.

Attention was momentarily diverted back to the Earth God who had yet another task. Good thing they had left when they did, otherwise they may have been behind. The last thing he wanted to do was get themselves killed because they were late making it to the boat. That would be tragic. The next task was to collect the animals. There were a number of little critters that needed to be saved. The crabs on the shore, the fishes in the sea. Although, he hoped that they could both survive the coming rains. It was only water right?

He followed next to Myrrine to retrieve their traps. She chose a smaller one, so he took a larger one. Who knew what would cross their path on the way. They may find all sorts of creatures. It would be bad to leave them behind.

They followed behind a group, up into a relatively familiar place. Cerin smiled when he realized where they were headed. The Heavenly Fields was the very first place they had met. It seemed forever ago, but it really had only been a few months. How far they had come since then. Nudging her shoulder slightly, he acknowledged her little thing. It was a sweet gesture to come here, even if she did not mean it.

She however, quickly was under the spell of something else. A small peeping noise resonated from within the tall grasses. He felt her leave his side before he saw her, but let it happen. Whatever was making the noise was in danger, and it was their duty to help the creature. It immediately took a liking to her, and Cerin smiled. He reached out his own muzzle to nudge the tiny fluff ball. It was in good hands, and speaking of which..

Another set of peeping crashed into his thoughts, turning around a pair of ducklings were waddling about in the tall grass. Cerin smiled, nudging them into his open crate. Good thing he had taken a large one, so they bother fit.

@[Myrrine] Merin rescuing all the babies. Sorry this is weird o.O

these words are all we have
