The quiet whoosh of her wings reached the audits that were pointed forward. Her wings were stretched out full length at both her sides, Aurora Borealis streaming freely from the twinkling stars upon her soft feathers. She had watched the sun set and now she flew in darkness, the moonlight and her stars guiding her. Her own twinkling, shining stars illuminated her against the dark backdrop, gold dusted hooves flashing in the odd light. She was heading to the Windtossed Foothills, and this was but a few hours away. Irrydae decided that she would stay here for the night and make her trek to the Foothills in the morning. She tilts her wings, slowly descending to the field. She dropped through the clouds and fog before resting her gold flints upon the tender ground. She tucks her wings in and a sigh escapes her form, eye lids closing over golden orbs. She does not notice the other horse that is across the field from her.

Her sides rise and fall with her steady breaths. Creamy white and dark purple tresses hung limply against Irrydae's figure, curling lightly at the ends. The wind swirled around her, tugging her, pushing her towards something… but what? It wanted her to go somewhere- she could tell. It would pause before starting up again. Large golden mirror eyes sparked with curiosity. 'Let your mind run wild, Irry, take chances.' Her mother would tell her. Her whole life was based around those small phrases her mother would always tell her- remind her. It was as if she ingrained them in her mind… Irry appreciated them now, while as a little kid hearing it so often was sometimes a bother. Irrydae missed her mothers voice. It was becoming harder to remember, the slight harmony didn't fill her mind anymore, and Irry was grasping to it like a kid with their beloved blanket. She was fighting so hard to not forget, the cling onto the memories, she was fighting the fact she would have to let it go. Some day, some day.

A hefty tug drew the mare out of thought, the wind pushing her harder, and she picked up her slender pillars, pulling herself into a graceful trot. Dew brushed against her hooves and hocks, clinging to them and chilling her. She flicked her tail, sending the hairs in an arc before they settled again. The wind had nearly stopped- just a normal breeze now and faint scents were filling her nostrils.

Deep, dark skies. Silence. No. A tinkling laugh, hooves dancing upon the grasses and flowers. Streaky, pastel colored lights floated around Irrydae as she watched her artificial northern lights. The stars above her- and on her, twinkled, as did her gold pools. She presses her sturdy hooves into the soft sand, shifting the weight on her legs and stretching out her wings, flapping them slightly and watching the swirling covers. A grin floods her face as eyes watch the colors swirl around her figure.

Her eyes then spot the orange and black striped pelt and she freezes, instincts screaming. Fight or flight. Flight was literal in this sense. She stares at the lowered body and realizes something is off. The scent that filled her nostrils was not that of a tiger, but of a horse. Her body relaxes, but she still is cautious, silent.

Irrydae waits.
