M U R T A G H Tallsun was what Lakota and Ktulu called it but Murtagh wasn’t really convinced it was a good thing. All through Birdsong he had been exploring this new green world where it seemed like every day he would wake up and something else would be different. The leaves would have burst a little bit more, there were these strange things called flowers growing practically everywhere. This world of warmth and life was weird and he wished he could blink and return to the snow but it apparently wasn’t going anywhere for a while now so he was just going to have to make the best of it. At least, that’s what his mothers told him. So now it was nearing midday and he was lying sprawled out on his side in the shade of a tree - feeling the weight of the humidity on him and wondering what was so great about this time of year anyway. He couldn’t run very much without feeling exhausted and he hadn’t yet figured out a good way to cool down. Were the waters still as dangerous as they had been in Frostfall? He was hesitant to try. Especially without parental supervision. Where were they anyway? They had told him to stay here, so he did (the desire to explore stemmed by the heat), but wasn't it the parents' job to be at the whim of their children? What were the pair of them doing when they weren't entertaining their lovely, adorable son? He would be making shapes out of the clouds except the darn leaves of this tree were in the way (and besides, there weren’t even any clouds to begin with). A deep, loud, and utterly unsatisfied sigh escaped the young colt - bored down to his teeth. He wondered, lazily, if Areli was around or if Erthe was on top of the mountain still but both of those options seemed too far for this noontime heat. Perhaps later, when the fire-bugs came out and he resumed his games. For now, he opted to continue his staring contest with the leaves and branches, wishing with all his heart for some snow to break this heat. |
