Naerys
Naerys had made great strides in trying to please her mother and mend their cracked relationship; at least, she felt she had. It was difficult after that one rather harsh and explosive encounter just outside the boundaries of the Edge but she tried nevertheless. Improvements came slowly at first but as she began to notice the progress her mother was making, the tension between them eased a bit. So when the new day dawns and Alysanne approaches her with the prospect of exploring, the girl is both surprised and overjoyed. For much of Naerys' young life, the black and white mare seemed to resist the very idea of exploration - she had her reasons, of course, but the girl couldn't begin to fathom what they might be (and mother wasn't prone to sharing everything). She gazes wide-eyed at her mother for a few brief moments before a soft smile curls her lips. "Of course, mama." she begins, her voice betraying the excitement bubbling in her chest. "I thought you'd never ask." she adds, gently teasing the black and white mare before the pair set off with their wings tucked carefully at their sides. It didn't matter to the girl how quickly they went or where they went - so long as everything was all right. For now, at least, they seemed to be able to set their differences and tension aside and it left Naerys feeling particularly light. Keeping pace with Alysanne, the girl found herself falling easily into a rather friendly conversation as they wandered this way and that - though their predominant direction, she notes, is east. Naerys had, in her own exploration, been to two of the 'new' lands brought in by the Gods but her time in each had been relatively short and often distracted by other events. Regardless, the girl was eager to continue her investigations; eager to gain as much knowledge as she can before she's thrust into the world and expected to be useful. Although their progress was slow, it certainly felt like the time had passed by quickly. The landscape seemed to shift before their eyes, transitioning from plants they knew (well, plants Alysanne knew) to foreign plants that seemed so oddly set up and organized. It felt strange and unnatural to Naerys, so she approached with a mixture of curiosity and caution while sticking fairly close to Alysanne's side. Though the girl's teal orbs focus keenly on the strange plant maze, seemingly absorbed in her own little world, her mother's question does not fall on deaf ears. "No, I haven't seen them before.." she responds softly without tearing her gaze from the leafy bush-like walls. It was Alysanne that first noticed the pair wasn't alone, catching movement out of the corner of her eye, but it wasn't long before Naerys realized it as well. Only, the brown and white girl heard someone else. When the girl's teal eyes find the golden mare with her pale, pretty locks she didn't hesitate in her approach. Slipping past her mother, the girl moves herself closer to the palomino mare, offering her a gentle yet friendly smile. "Hey there. You're from the Edge, aren't you?" she asks, her voice and demeanor warm and welcoming. "I'm Naerys." her introduction is a simple one and had she not already planned out her potential escape should the encounter turn sour, the girl might have shown more caution. Even still, her entire body is relaxed - almost as though she already knew that they were safe. an unquenchable flame |
IN YOUR HEART SHALL BURN AN UNQUENCHABLE FLAME
