The boy had never seen anything like it. The world went on forever. He was standing between two pieces of sky, or was he flying, or was he falling? In a place like this Zero couldn't really be sure. His laughter echoed across the endless expanse, and then his shouts, and then laughter again, intermingling and dancing loudly and ringing in his eager ears. The lightning boy grinned.

He'd been told about the new worlds, but of course being a kid he wasn't supposed to go until they'd proven it was safe. He'd spent weeks sequestered in the Throat, chafing against stupid imaginary constraints. Well screw that! Nobody was dead, and nobody had told him specifically he couldn't leave anymore. It's not like the world could hurt him if he just went and looked a little, right? Besides, he'd take Squishy along. Squishy was great at keeping him safe.

Four hours later and he was staring into an endless mirage of a perfect world, sunbeam eyes wide as he strove to take it all- all what?. There was so much nothing, and it was so weird, but also so cool, and the boy was mistified. He'd thought it would be a beach like home, because it was so close to the ocean and that was how he'd come to understand the beach. But this was nothing like the rolling shores and jagged rocks of home. The world here was a disc of perfect calm, The dents left behind by growing hooves filled as soon as he shifted his weight. Squishy had gotten stuck in the soft sand more than once, zapping unhappily until Zero came and pushed him on. That was the only problem with this place, really, because aside from that-

"This is awesome!"
just one mistake is all it will take to go down in history

Areli
the flower that smells the sweetest is shy and lowly

Around the river and through the woods, to the Dragon’s Throat she went. It had been weeks since she had last seen her brother, and Areli had decided to pay him a visit. How happy he would be to see her! She knew that she was the center of Ilios’ world, and she smiled to herself in gleeful anticipation of the attention he was sure to pay her. She knew that her family loved her, but things at home hadn’t been the same since he’d left. Mama had grown more distant, and Papa seemed to be always patrolling the borders. That left her with Bee. The wolf pup was great and all, but she liked games that Areli couldn’t understand. Where was the fun in stalking mice, for example? Or chasing one’s tail? She just didn’t see the appeal. And so the girl trotted through the trees, making for the south and seeking more appropriate company. Bee loped along at her side, happy at the prospect of an adventure, and in this way the pair was journeying when they came upon the topsy-turvy world of the Flats.

 
At first glance, the sight was rather disorienting. Areli couldn’t tell which way was up and which was down; it was almost like she had fallen into the sky, but her hooves were still planted firmly on the ground. She took one tentative step, and then another, and before she knew it, she was running and shrieking across the flats, kicking up a salty spray behind her. Was this what it was like to fly?
 
OOC: ONLY ONE MONTH LATER…so sorry for the wait, Charks!
