The skies certainly were busy that morning. Erthë was not used to seeing so many of her herd out and about at such an early hour, but she found it rather pleasant all the same. She called greetings to those she knew as she spotted them, her smile wide and unusually alert for the hour; winter was doing wonders for her sleep, blessing her with the first interrupted few hours of shut-eye for gods knew how many years.
Noticing that everyone else seemed to be heading towards a particular destination, she followed behind Lyanna and Iona until they came upon the Meadow and was invited to the impressive view.
Erthë didn't like turkeys. Too big, too ugly and squawking, almost always in a nasty temper... but she had to admit that it was kind of cool to see so many at one time. There was of course that glowing orb at the center of the flock too...
"Ooh, it's one of those" she said, as she landed next to her two friends. "I always wondered where those orbs come from... Do either of you know?"
Staring curiously at the ball of swirling light, the young mare felt a twinge of want that she found unusual. So far whenever there had been orbs about, she had been far more interested in the game than the prize. This time however, she felt an inexplicable urge to try and reach it, snatch it, steal it and fly away before anyone else could object. She didn't even know what it was exactly, only that every equine in Helovia grew nuts whenever they saw these things...
Question was whether she ought to actually go for it, or leave it for the kids... Wouldn't it be rather mean of her to take something Maude and the others wanted?
... but what if she wanted to be mean for once? Licking her lips the young mare took a step forward towards the flock, just as one of the strangers present charged into the flock, apparently hellbent on scattering the birds. Huffing to herself Erthë decided to take advantage of whatever confusion was created, and began to stalk forth through the massive squawkers, hoping to creep up to the orb before Merlin got there.
