It was hot, even to me. Especially here in the yellow Heavenly Fields. It felt like the Sun God wanted to be extra close today, and I was fine with that. A nice line of sweat beaded around my tender flank as I trotted, I felt it dripping near my neck too. I smiled up at the blindingly hot sun as it stared back. I had never felt summer, or expected it to be anything like this- I loved it. The heat, the bright yellow of everything around me. The world just looked so much more peaceful grooving to the sound of summer cicadas. I was alone except for them. I wondered where Aylin was, I figured she was probably following mother around exploring like I'd rather be doing with daddy, but strolls like this one weren't that bad. Sometimes I liked being alone. I liked to soak up all of the interesting happenings of the world. After all I was never alone as the sun and clouds were always watching.

My golden mane tousled in my wake as my trot became more brisk. I felt secure and hidden within the gentle holds of the tall, sweet grass. My favorite part of summer here was how the singing birds roused from their trees to build on to their homes, and the summer bugs trailed around my feet as I moved. It was quite relaxing to play here. My mind could wander for days, seemingly. But when it came to night - I tried not to think of the darkness. I knew that I was wading in the noon of a beautiful day. I often tried to think of it as half over. I tried not to think about the lack of light, and an eerie clouded moon glaring down from atop its looming throne.

[ Sorry I'm so late on this Ali :c You can reply whenever, I just feel an inspiration xD I'm also using this for lack of a better table :/ ]

My teal eyes glanced down the gentle decline of the Heavenly Fields, not tempted one bit to travel further away from the sun's dangerously warm fingertip rays. I loved how it played with the glistening color on my back, and the short course hairs of my mane. As a result, my coat has lightened, and my mane stubble was becoming whiter. I daydreamed of it becoming a long, luxurious white like momma's.

It was much before long that a familiar voice entered my sensitive eardrums. I turned around quickly in the tall, crunchy grass to see Aylin drifting nearer through the tall grass. She was up the hill further than I, and I figured she caught a late night spending time with her precious moon. "Aylin!" My voice spilled out on to the air like thick soap on a sponge. That was the beauty of the fields, sound was soaked right up into the clouds to ensure a completely peaceful evening. Her muffled footsteps were echoed by mine as I raced at a brisk pace up the hill to her.

"Were you catching a late date with the moon?" My voice was gentle but teasing as I finally approached, she was sweater than I was, which irked a tiny nerve in my brain. I wanted the sun to influence me the most of anyone.

Even if he didn't understand the moon, he still respected her power to be equal to the Almighty Sun. He dreamed of what all of of the Gods looked like really, and he'd never really come to think much for the the Earth. It was all a constant battle of who was really more powerful - the Sun or Moon? But what about Earth? To Cyrus, he was too busy controlling the land's resources while the Moon and Sun barked on opposite sides of the leash. He really didn't really care of his followers, and would rather sleep under the roaring blankets of bursting heat and cooling nights.

As the playful colt neared his sister he aimed a playful nip at her velvety ear, then he giggled. The flaxen child stood back a little as she talked of her night with the moon. "She'll see you soon," the boy said with a gentle smile. He believed that if you were faithful, you'd eventually see all that you wanted. "Yep. I slept too late to see a good sunrise from up there, but there's always tomorrow." The boy suddenly frowned as a new thought interrupted his brain. What if he never came? What if all he wanted was to burn Helovia's flesh with his pure heat to show ignorant power? Cyrus' unmarked head drooped. "Aylin. What if he doesn't come today? Or tomorrow? Or even in all the other days?" He half expected her to try and comfort his running thoughts, just as he did hers, but he wanted to know where else he could find his Almighty sun.
