Isopia
the high indifference some call fate; but we had names more intimate

Volterra

Isopia felt a cool chill rush through her body - and yet her cheeks felt suddenly hot. Quickly, the girl introspected, trying to pin down the source of this odd and uncomfortable flutter. She recognized it as something close to jealousy, but that association didn't readily cohere in her mind. This was not just some filly looking for Volterra. Not some awe-struck mare seeking him out, this was his sister. Jealousy was ... ill-fitting for this encounter, and yet what was fostering and festering in a black hole in Isopia's gut certainly felt very close to jealousy.

Why?

"He doesn't live here." Isopia answered, shaking her nose from left to right ever so slightly. Her statement didn't imply that she knew Volterra, only that no one by that name lived in the herd. Why was she guarding the information from Nym? It was hard to say. But it felt secretive, worthy of protecting. Maybe Nymeria would understand this, given her relationship with her brother. Or maybe she would equally hate Isopia if she knew of ... of what? It would not be amiss to call Vol and Iso friends and yet ... yet friend, was as ill-fitting for the two of them, as jealousy was to what Isopia felt towards Nym.

"You'll want to talk to Knox I suppose ... " Isopia voiced, thinking outloud. "He is our lead spy, though I haven't seen him in some time. Archibald the Dauntless and Kaj the Aurelight are the two Czars of the herd. They could equally well guide you in your search for purpose here."

On her withers, Hubris peered out once again. Constantly he shuffled Isopia's red cape in his hands like a nervous tick, as he watched the black dragon. He knew that it would be rude of him to interrupt, but he did want to know more about this creature who looked so similar to him. Me, he whispered again into her mind, his bright eyes locked upon his darker cousin.
