’Should be far enough from them by now...’ Rude thought, somewhat sarcastically, looking back through the murky water. As if those land bound pursuers could follow him beneath the waves in the first place... The other equines that lived around the bay he had considered his home until extremely recently, had finally had enough of the abnormal half-shark, half-horse hybrid living near them and had chased him out.
One of them had spotted him devouring the carcass of an equine that had drowned in the dark waters of the Rift and washed up on the beach near his cave, face covered in gore, sharp teeth tearing through flesh like a knife. Needless to say, the enraged herd had rapidly gathered on the shore upon being told of this horrific act and would have quite willingly killed him had be not retreated to the sea.
‘I might be a carnivore, but even I can’t take all of them...’
It had be a few hours since then and Rude was languidly propelling himself through the water, aquatic tail allowing this to happen with an ease that was all but impossible for others. Suddenly, he felt a current pulling from the left, drawing him towards what looked like a strange distortion in the water. It started gently at first, getting stronger as he swam closer, curiosity getting the better of him, until it was impossible to escape its grip.
He made contact with the portal. A blinding flash erupted...
...and Rude stumbled out with a gush of seawater as the ground appeared beneath his feet. ’Huh...? What happened!?’ he exclaimed inwardly, shocked at the immediate change in surroundings. He looked around warily and found himself surrounded by a large group of unique looking equines, even by his standards. There was one member of the group that caught his attention more than the rest however, a sandy coloured unicorn with fin-like appendages and ridges and skin like a fish. He made a mental note to introduce himself to her after... whatever this gathering was.
They all seemed to have turned there attention to the large individual at the head of the group, the one numerous others had referred to as the “Lord of the Earth” or the “Earth God” that gave off an aura of vast power. Was he really a God? Did he make this portal?
Rude figured he would stay silent, large groups made him uneasy afterall.
