The Steppes, again.

It was becoming irksome to find myself consistently drawn back to his place, its white valleys and rocky paths filled with ice and snow. Where once it brought me comfort, it now left an uncomfortable ache in my bones, the world felt brittle beneath my hooves as they drew me deeper into the chilly abyss. Tallsun had reared its head these past weeks, revealing land, and even grass beneath the heavy permafrost. New sprouts found their way between my lips as I chewed mindlessly. It was not often that I took the time to enjoy anything, not even this could be counted as enjoyable, moreso a necessity. The idea of having fun and being carefree was a sore spot, and so well guarded behind a wall of indifference.

But, along with the rise of the burning sun came the inevitable; horses, activity, forced interaction. It made my skin crawl, despite the warm weather. Even the steppes could be considered pretty to look at under Tallsun's brutal gaze, perhaps even I was pretty with the sunshine plowing a way through the sparse clouds, and to my back. A sound lifted my head from the ground, grass yet within my grasp as pale eyes scanned the area.

A white woman - or mostly white - stood not to far away, how I managed to miss such a detail was beyond me. Which, as of recently, was not too uncommon. It felt as though with the passing of the seasons came a passing of my own observation. More and more often I found strangers at my door, although in this case I would say that I knocked at hers. She appeared quite content, at peace her her spot at the top of the hill, sunshine accentuating a long back and rolling curves, thin tail swinging lazily in the short breeze. Should I announce my presence? Disturb her moment of silence in my self-imposed shortcomings?

"Ah, lovely day is it not?" (blast!)

"Talk."

ooc - this is way overdue and I'm sorry :(
