[Open to anyone! Iso needs some crystal!]
Her Father had said to go to the caves and bring back crystal.
However he had also warned her against taking too much ... saying that she needed to take care. His words had tumbled around her always-growing mind, ever since he had spoken them. On the one hand, she found it almost insulting that he would insinuate that she would not be careful in some way. She was his child afterall, and was not prone to gluttony or greed. She would never take more than she needed, and was always careful when it came to the natural world. Why then would he offer such a warning?
Was it a premonition? Was something bad going to happen to her, and his words were meant as a cryptic warning? She very much doubted it, but given the hostility with which she considered the alternative, considered it.
She had never come to these caves before. Isopia knew the way - Kahlua had taught her the geography of the lands early on. But still, knowing something was not the same as having actually experienced it. Gliding low, on mismatched wings the demi-child landed on top of what was actually a labyrinth of caverns, far below her hooves. It sent a chill through her body as she peered into the stone, knowing that deep within their were rushing waters and walls of crystal. All of this, hidden beneath the surface. That the earth held such mystery and magic flooded her with a sense of purpose and mortality. It was good that the earth kept such secrets hidden away. It was reassuring.
Folding her wings against her blood-splattered flanks, Isopia turned her death-marked skull as she looked around. Her golden gaze surveyed the land but was unsure which opening to choose. Where exactly was the crystal? Hastily she had departed knowing only the location of the caves, rather than the item she sought.
"Stupid." She muttered to herself, swishing her dark tail behind her as she looked around. Her dark lips pouted in a frown as she considered her options.
