A story is a way of preserving the memories of those long forgotten to time.

Summer's grasp upon the world was weakening. Soon, the leaves of trees would turn to beautiful shades of brown, red and gold, and the air would chill and snow would fall. However there would be that lull between Summer and Winter, where the air would be pleasant and the world colored so beautifully it would be as if the world's best artists gathered to paint every leaf a different hue.

We trudge through the mountains, Elodin and I, in search of the place called the Aurora Basin. I didn't know precisely where it was, but it did not stop me from searching. It was, actually, sheer luck I stumbled across the entrance, and the sight that greeted me there took my breath away.

Giant statues of metal loomed, sentinels standing guard. T'was like something out of a myth, one of my stories, and it only made me itch to see what grand place was beyond the statues. However, despite my curiosity I do not pass, no. This was clearly the threshold, the border to their herd. I would not insult my potential hosts so, not when a good first impression was needed.

So I merely watched Elodin as he played around, exploring everything with the utter fearlessness of a child. As he ventured free, I kept a sharp gaze up at the sky, fearful for avian predators to take advantage of the small antelope. Once, I had seen a hawk dive for my bondmate, and it was by sheer luck he managed to get to cover and hide long enough for me to charge over and chase the raptor off. He had stuck to me like glue afterwards, although apparently that had worn off.

My mismatched gaze roamed towards the Basin, ears pricked, trying to pick up the sounds of approaching feet. Was this the Basin, or had I stumbled across something else?

OOC: Kvo is here to speak with the leads/rank of the basin about Troupe matters :3 AKA spending a season with the Basin to share stories, barter, perform for the Basin and offer aid in matters not relating to fighting
""Speech."
