Naerys isn't a child anymore and frankly, it's about time she stopped acting like one. That was why she offered herself to patrol duty. Well, that and her mother was there too. She didn't hesitate in her choice once Alysanne declared hers. To the caves they would go. Perhaps it would be uneventful or perhaps something strange would come up. Either way she intended to be there for her mother and perhaps they would get the chance to really talk once more. It has been ages since they've done that - a problem she herself undoubtedly caused.

It had been some time since she'd last explored in the caves, so long in fact that she almost felt a bit nervous to lose her favored means of escape - flight. But just as Alysanne finds strength near her, she finds strength by her mother's side. So when the day comes for them to leave together, Naerys starts out on hoof - assuming this time would be no different than every moment prior. Boy, was she wrong. Alysanne takes off for the skies first, leaving Naerys frozen with her mouth hanging open. Petyr bolts after her, a vibrant green streak against the bright sky, his laughter ringing clear across their bond. For several moments the girl simply stares with wide teal eyes, the black and white form of her mother in the air - Hemlock and Petyr flocking with her as birds are apt to do.

With a delighted squeal, Naerys scrambles after them and launches herself into the air with far less grace than she usually does. The auburn and white pegasus suddenly feels lighter than she's felt in a very long time. Flying with Alysanne in the golden sunshine was enough to make even Naerys a bit bouncy - she races, dives, circles, and spins. Her heart races with the excitement - her nervousness fading into the background, forgotten until the heart comes into view. As they descend, Naerys grows quieter. She's more serious, more solemn. Having come to rely heavily upon her wings to get around (and escape), she almost doesn't want to go into the caves now. Not with all the talk of beasts as of late. Naerys lands gracefully beside Alysanne, almost immediately folding her feathered wings, and as Petyr settles himself down upon her withers she knows she cannot delay.

Alysanne is the first to descend into the caves but it does not escape her notice how even her mother hesitates at the mouth of it. Naerys paws at the rocky earth of the entrance, as though digging her nervous energy out before she too descends into the darkness. Sliding in as close to her mother as she dares, she waits for her vision to adjust before meeting Alysanne's gaze. "I have, a few times." she admits, smiling faintly as she gazes around them. "It's... a bit more... creepy now, though." her confession is marked by a deep sigh as she attempts to settle her nerves. Why is she so jumpy? She's never been like this before.

@Alysanne
So it only took me months. D: but it's here and I'm sorry.

IN YOUR HEART SHALL BURN AN UNQUENCHABLE FLAME
