WE HELD TOGETHER THE FRAGILE SKY TO KEEP OUR WAY OF LIFE

The girl had slipped away from home again, this time with Petyr gripping her shoulders with his tiny talons. By now the bird is nearing his adult size; about the size of a crow. His fluffy green pinfeathers have been replaced with the sleek adult feathers of green, teal, yellow, creamy white, rusty brown, and a black mask over his pale eyes. Petyr is quite the sight to see with his vibrant colors - something both he and Naerys take pride in. The girl moves with a sense of purpose, rebelling against her mother's wishes to remain at home, especially after the little stunt she pulled down in the Halcyon Flats. At only just a year, she'd been foolish to throw herself into the battle against that massive crocodile but like any adolescent - she didn't even think of the potential consequences. Didn't even think that she could be killed and then what? The girl didn't want to think about the pain she could have caused her mother and father if things had gone horribly wrong.

And she'd be lying to herself if she even so much as hinted that she wasn't disappointed by her lack of prize after the fight concluded.

Sighing softly, the girl wanders through the woods near the threshold, the pain in her skull coming and going at rather random intervals and keeping her in the shadows as much as possible. Her teal eyes had become unusually sensitive to the light. With her wings loosely folded at her sides and Petyr preening her rather short mane, the girl peers through the trees, her eyes narrowing to slits whenever they met with a light patch. Her slender body is long and lean, rather awkwardly so as she's still young and still growing. Her coat is mostly a pretty brown, broken up by patches of pure white. The blue blood from the crocodile still stains the white fur on her knees but thankfully the stiffness has dissipated, allowing the girl to move with a far greater ease. The few shallow scrapes on her side, just in front of her hip, have scabbed over and are well on their way to being healed but the rather large bruise remains - causing her discomfort with each step.

Naerys snorts softly as she pauses beneath the shade of a rather large tree, clinging to the shadows as though they were her only friend. Her vibrant teal eyes sweep over the trees before her and that's when she sees the lean and lanky stallion. He seemed a bit older than the last one she'd brought home and for a moment, the young girl hesitates. She doesn't want to cause her mother any more grief than she already had but hadn't she left again, without her permission? Isn't she already causing the poor mare grief by being here in these woods again? In her hesitation, she watched as two others approached. A gray mare that looked vaguely familiar somehow, though she couldn't quite place where. The other pale mare, though, is a complete mystery.

The girl approaches with an excited bounce to her step, carefully choosing a shaded spot close to where the stallion stood in his small clearing. A small smile curves her soft, dark lips. "Hi!" she says jovially. "I'm Naerys." she adds warmly, focusing most of her attention on the male as he's the only one that smells... foreign. That was when she noticed the dolphin, though, and she fails to hold back a gasp. "Wow!" the word merely bursts from her parted lips, a curious gleam present in her youthful gaze. "What is that?" she blurts out in a rather typical, adolescent fashion. Naerys doesn't quite have a fully functional filter yet, and it is especially faulty when she's excited or faced with something very new. Petyr's curious, pale eyes peer over Naerys' shoulder to gaze at the strange creature playing with the water and floating in the air. It seemed out of place somehow, but it seems happy so the girl quiets down and tears her gaze away from it to return her focus back to the task at hand.
