When Rei reaches out to comfort you, you are surprised—are you that easy to read? However, you are touched by her unexpected kindness. Grey eyes go misty, and you are only able to respond with a quiet, “Thank you,” and a nod of your head. While you are sorry for her own loss, in a strange way, it comforts you to know that you are not alone in your grief. As you blink away the tears that have not yet spilled, you are grateful that your new friend has moved on to a more cheerful topic. You miss your family every day, but you find distraction is much easier on your heart than it is to dwell on them. “Our names will be written in history for the discoveries that we will make today,” Rei is proclaiming, and you giggle at the thought. Perhaps your adventures will not make it into any bedtime tales or famous legends, but surely you will have a good story to tell by the end of the day—it seems that anything can happen here! And if not, you muse, looking around at your companions, at the very least, you will leave this island with two new friends. Therefore, you walk alongside Rei willingly as she chatters, eyes wide as you explore this floating countryside together. She strikes up a conversation with Africa, and you absentmindedly listen as you look around, taking in all of the sights that the landscape has to offer. You don’t gather much, only that they must be both part of something called ‘Dragon’s Throat,’ and that Rei seems to look up to Africa, perhaps much as you look up to dear Kahlua. Your musings are cut short, however, by a violent rustling in a bush a little ways before you. Startled, you squeal and prance backwards, wings thrown wide instinctively in self defense. As adrenaline spikes your bloodstream, you are reminded that there are things unfamiliar here—you’ve got to be careful! Needless to say, when a small winged pink creature flops harmlessly onto the ground before you, you feel quite foolish…and a little concerned. “Is it…alive?” you whisper to Rei and Africa, not taking your eyes off of its unmoving form. You are tempted to go up to it and nudge it, but you are not quite sure that you’re brave enough to prod something unknown, as innocent as it looks. @[Africa] horse:Colourize-Stock.deviantart.com || bg: Dark-Wolfs-Stock.deviantart.com || wings: Chocomix-Stock.deviantart.com & Chunga-Stock.deviantart.com || image: impassioned-dreams.deviantart.com || table by wanda |
