Africa
Africa was glad to be home; the tension leaking through the south was a constant reminder that something formidable was looming, growing; waiting to spew from the racist clan of the north. Always the peaceable young mare tried to remain cautiously alert; the warning told by Kri herself, an ever sounding echo in her still-young, vibrant mind. Also too, absurd rumours were circulating about switching personalities and unexplainable occurrences throughout the wilds, where Outcasts and Rogues roamed at liberty. Apparently, she had laughed rashly so often, not everything was what it seemed to be! Figuring she had performed some unwritten duty by rescuing Tesande- in a sense, from the perils of homelessness and ignorance, the young mottled mare was indulged with a blissful sense of achievement; even if she had been quite naturally and easily distracted as she went. As they slithered brazenly beneath the little outcrop and into the cavern- which really, only just comfortably accommodated Africa’s bulk, let alone that of a second winged horse, a thick plume of dust filled the narrow space around them. Predictably, the grey began to sneeze in short, sharp bursts, and she giggled when she finally attained some control over her irritated, protesting nasal passages; most amused at their joint attempt to split the rock with noise. “See?” She chuckled turning to see Tesande who was cramming forward between the rough wall and Africa’s side. Thoughtfully, she lifted her wings high and lay them across her back. “That’s what I meant by escaping the dust, hehe.” Of course she was referring to her comments before when they were still back in the Threshold’s crisp, tart pine forest. “Ok!” She whispered, lowering her face and stepping towards carelessly heaped sand towards the back corner of the dim room. “It’s just here...” Africa’s twitching lips began meticulously to brush the sand away, and revealed beneath was a smooth surface- olive green to reflect the moist mossy cave within which it was found. |
