The cold night breeze glides through her feathers as she soars above the crowd, raising goose bumps beneath her silky coat and causing an involuntary shiver to run down her spine. Angling her body and using the air currents to guide her, the winged minx alights on one of the many cliffsides that surrounds the festival below. Balancing on the rock, now slippery with pre-winter hoarfrost, she gazes with beady eyes at those who mingle below her. She had not been particularly enthused when the herd had begun its preparations for this soiree, but she intends to use it to her advantage now, gleaning what information she can from liquor-loose lips.

FLASH—!

The sudden burst of light startles the vixen, much to her indignation; she nearly falls from the rock on which she is perched, keeping her footing only by unfurling her wings to maintain her balance, and flapping them once before she is able to compose herself once more. Her pride bruised with the sting of embarrassment, and assuring herself that no one could have witnessed her folly from this height, Imogen huffs a sigh and purses her smoky lips into a fine line.

Too bitter now to acknowledge the beauty in the light show that the Basin’s patron god provides, the winged mare watches the fireworks and dancing stars with a stony expression. She rolls her shoulders forward, tucking in her black wings against her flanks, and allows the length of her golden cloak to fall more fully across her back. The show goes on above, but she lowers her eyes to scan the crowd, her cold attention ultimately resting on the Basin’s bay Time Mender—the one she knows to be telling stories. Just as the last of the Time God’s fireworks fade back into the night, Imogen glides down to the valley, keen on collecting what information she can.


“Speech.”
You can tell me when it’s over
If the high was worth the pain
