When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

Beneath a blanket of red, the star girl danced. Her movements graceful and deliberate, she cantered through the forest, winding effortlessly through the trunks of trees that towered and blocked the sun with their crimson leaves. She was stark against the hues, her blue's clashing against the bloodied foliage. The roaring of the falls swelled in her ears as she approached, and she let it bombard her senses before she cut suddenly and followed the rushing current downstream. The rubies twinkled in her stormy eyes, catching her attention as all things that glitter do. Deeper and deeper into the rift land she went, her path winding with the world around her. She had no destination, instead she quenched her desire to open her strides and keep her body muscled and lean.

The star girl slowed her pace, cooling down after her distance run. Soon she stopped, dipping her head to pick a stone from her cloven toes with the tip of her crown. This was her second time visiting the falls, and it was just as beautiful as it was her last visit. Her surroundings were kissed by morning, with soft fog rising off of the churning river, and the ground frosted by frozen dew. The air was crisp, and though it burned her lungs as she caught her breath, it was refreshing.

Blissfully alone, she walked into an area where the trees grew thinner. She touched her mouth to the river, and though it still ran here, the surface was more placid compared to the rest. It was a small off-shoot, the wide river divided by a small island of trees and brush, creating an area of the water where, though still treacherous, created an alluring sense of safety compared to the rest of the tide. But her solitude was not long lasted as she realized another from the Basin was coming close.

Drawing her soft lips from the cool water, she turned her head to see the buck who shared the space with her. The blackened haunt was familiar, and her distaste for him clung to her tongue like bitter berries. "Greetings, Nox," she crooned, stepping towards him. Part of her wanted to bat long eyelashes as the stallion, swallow his attention in the feminine sway of her hips, draw him in like the siren she was, before pushing him into the thunderous river. But she wasn't feeling murderous. Besides, the river wasn't deep enough here to drown him in, and it wasn't like she wanted to kill him anyways. She just wanted to figure him out, and see if her initial impression of him was correct.

"I came here looking to stretch my legs, get away from home for a bit, and instead I find you. So, since we both ended up here perchance, let's test our luck further. Care to spar with me? I know you've taken the path of healer, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't practice your fighting skills." She smiled, lashes fluttering, catching his steely gaze with her silver pools. "It would be a shame for such a strong creature as yourself to grow weak as you tend to your garden."

It was a surprise to her, to be totally honest. The latin brute didn't cross her as someone who would take on a vocation as delicate and focused as healing. But she would much rather surround herself with soldiers who wanted to fight, who desired the craze of battle, who were devoted enough go to war knowing they may fall and become food for scavengers. Healing was important, just as battle was, and she had once considered following that path as well. But she knew where she belonged.

Did he?
