It was daybreak when Evangeline slipped past the dilapidated glass wall that had once been the pride and joy of the World's Edge. It had been a magnificent thing, but now it only served as a reminder of the dark days that were spent cowering in fear, underground while the monsters stalked above. It still sent a chill down her spine and tendrils of fear and apprehension poked at her mind and made her wonder how long. How long until the next disaster shook the foundation of each and every herd? How long before there was a disaster large enough to drive them out of Helovia for good? 'Stop.' Tallis' voice interrupted Evangeline's thoughts and she glanced up at the orange dragon as he flew overhead. 'No think bad.' The orange mare sighed in response to the dragon's instructions. She knew what he was getting at, but it wasn't in her nature to be all sunshine and rainbows. Tallis chuckled and, in her mind, flashed an image of Kahlua. 'Silly queen sunshine and rainbows.' He purred. 'Eva grumpy. Think bad thoughts.' She rolled her eyes at the dragon. "Not everyone can live in a fairy tale, Tallis." She replied. How she wished she could see the world as Kahlua did. She wished she could see the good in everyone, but more often than not she saw their faults and she judged them on it. "Some of us live in reality." 'Reality stinks.' Came the dragon's dismissive reply. The atmosphere between the two shifted quite suddenly, causing Eva to look up at the dragon again. "What do you see?" She asked, realizing that they had already made it to the Threshold. 'Stallion.' "Is he alone?" 'Yes.' As he answered her question Tallis began to descend until he had landed upon the orange mare's back. He moved and took up his usual position on her neck, his head peeking out from between her ears where he knew he was sure to be noticed. Evangeline continued to walk toward the stallion, stopping when she was a few feet away from him. "Hello." She spoke softly, her head tilting minutely. "Welcome to Helovia." @[Far] |
