KTULU
it's getting harder and harder to breathe



Ktulu left the Foothills after seeing the God of the Earth and being told that she would be blessed later in life and just wandered, thinking about what he meant. Her wandering had brought her to Thistle Meadow, more specifically the tree that she and Ophelia had slept under when they had been refugees. Orphans. One of her ears tilted back and she sighed as she approached it. The black dun girl shoved her nose against the ground and inhaled. It was faint, but it was still there. Ophelia's scent. Her tail slapped against her flanks and she lifted her head, turning it to look around the meadow.

Memories of nights she pretended to sleep when in actuality she stood guard over Ophelia flooded back to her her. It had been lonely, at first, living alone, just the two of them. Over time it had become comfortable, felt free. Now she and Phi lived in the Dragon's Throat and, while she did like it there, it just wasn't the same. Herd life wasn't as comfortable to her as it had been when she'd been a foal. Her heart longed for the freedom she'd felt when she'd lived on her own with Phi, but she wouldn't force her sister out of a home and she wouldn't make her choose. Ktulu loved her sister too much to do that to her.

Rather than turn and begin her journey back to the Dragon's Throat, however, Ktulu lowered herself and laid in the shade under the tree, her crimson gaze sweeping over the meadow. Just a few hours or maybe a day or two of this would put her at ease, she thought. Then she'd go back to the Throat and pretend like she didn't miss being a nomad.
