She found herself in limbo, uncertain of whether her purchase in the World’s Edge would lead her to the top of the mountain. A mountain of dreams and hopes, of a life worth living, of a higher calling… She’d clung to the stories her mother used to murmur into the night, of heroes and valiant sacrifices. Of the demons left to fight.
 
Ru wasn’t sure what her demons were, now, as she stood atop a rolling hill cleared of trees. Within the throes of the World’s Edge, consumed by the land she tentatively called home. A wide berth of sky showered light across the whitened landscape, providing little warmth.
 
What did it mean to have honor, what code would she follow as she breached into these warrior ranks? No one had ever told her, beyond the fantasies of spoken words. No one had shown her a way, and all she had left was the childish imprints of legends. It was hollow, because there was only so much she could glean from its simple structure.
 
With a furrowed brow the youth tossed her feathered head up, reared with wings splayed, and called out in challenge. Restless was her soul; wild was her spirit that even then, now, she felt the urgings to leave her newly acquired home forever. The fear of abandonment trickled past her eyes and threatened to dampen her resolve. Rather than think it out, in the cage of her mind and the stillness in speechless lips, she sought out sweat, and blood instead.
 
Rather fight, and fine-tune what she could control, then mope and pity herself with what might be. She would find progress soon, hopefully, with each scar to carry the memory of her persistence.
 
Thus, the earth-hued pegasi paced in the deep snow. Waiting for a partner to practice; pushing the rolling, coiling fear of impending pain and hardened breaths down her throat. This would all be worth something one day, she told herself. And wondered, briefly, if she would ever escape the cringe that came with a spar. To harness its fear and make it bloom into wildfire.
