ORIGIN

The little filly inhaled deeply as her eyes fluttered open. She had spent a few nights with the winged horse named James, though she had never met his family that he had spoken of. She was strangely alright with that, not wanting to hang around too long honestly. It wasn’t that she didn’t like him, it was just that her hooves were telling her to get up and go. To see the world and explore every inch of it. And so her hooves were itching like they had after the first few days out of her chrysalis, she had enjoyed her time with Fahl but alas her hooves ached and yearned to be on the move.

And so the little filly rocked to her hooves slipping out from under what James called a blanket. She had had ample time to recover from her ordeal in the freezing tunnel that led between Pisces and Orion. She had nearly froze to death, and she would have had it not been for James. However nonetheless it was time for her to move on from this place. The dazzling ceiling had fascinated her for hours the first time she had seen them. She had also taken time to explore the many ruins of Orion, even those that had been melted.

Following a path she had found the day before leading to an interesting mist filled tunnel that was pale grey and so different from the other. It was chilling but not in a cold sense. It made her feel strange and she wanted to know why, she wanted to know what was on the other side. Even as she took her first step into the tunnel an eerie feeling settled on her. SOmething told her to hurry through and not take her time. That there was something wrong, maybe something hiding in the mist itself. And so the little filly hurried her pace through the tunnel. Soon she emerged in a strange place where the ceiling seemed to be bearing down on her. Curiously the girl wandered farther into the place. Soon she came to a pile of something that caught her attention. They were a jumble of things, and she stood staring at them for the longest time.

The young filly stood with her back to everything, her eyes looking at the big pile of white stick like things. Some were curved, some were in weird shapes that looked like fleshless heads. Hazel eyes studied the things curiously as she lifted a hoof and gingerly poked at one close to her. It didn’t bite back or move without her making it move, so ventured farther. The young filly leaned down her head and took a tentative sniff of the things. They had no smell to speak of, so she gently reached out and lipped the end of one of the things. They were cold and hard, finally she licked the thing. It tasted strange, not like anything else she had tasted before and so she picked up one of the smaller things in her mouth sideways. She could take this back to Fahl and see what he thought of it.

The young filly had been lost in her own world when a voice called out behind her. The filly jumped about three feet straight in the air. Her ears perked up straight and her nostrils flared. Quickly the filly spun around dropping the stick thing from her mouth. She hadn’t expected to see anyone else around in such a creepy place. Flashing a sheepish grin the filly pawed at the stick thing with her hoof. ”Hello there.” The filly greeted, lowering her head, her ears falling back. Then it struck her, Perhaps they knew what the stick things were. ”Uhm, I know we just met. But do you know what this thing is?" The filly asked motioning with her hoof to the thing that was clearly a bone. Which had just been in her mouth.

Stormy smiled sheepishly at the wormlike creature. She was embarrassed that she had let herself be so distracted and absorbed in what she was doing, she hadn’t noticed the new gembound coming up behind her. She had been so absorbed trying to figure out what the long white thing was.

Then after her question the other gembound quickly answered her question. It was a bone? That she didn’t know what it was, then it was quickly explained. She balked and stuck her tongue out and made a sound akin to ewww. She had a dead thing in her mouth! ”Well that’s pleasant.” The girl commented to herself. Well thank you. My name is Stormy!” The girl introduced herself. ”Do you live around here or are you like me just here to explore?” She asked boldly, obviously curious about the strange newcomer.


@Kalaziel

It wasn’t the fact that she thought anything from the previous owner might remain. It was the fact that not only was she an herbivore, but that it was just a bone. Herbivores didn’t really chew on bones and most usually weren’t exactly a pleasant thought to her kind. However as she dropped the bone, hazel eyes took in the new creature before her, and she couldn’t help but wonder what they were. They were interesting looking to say the least.

A light smile spread over the young filly’s muzzle as the creature gave its name. ”It’s nice to meet you Kalaziel. You’re very interesting looking if I may say so myself. Very unique, I like it!” The young filly blurted out with a bright smile, not realizing her comment could be taken as offensive.

Oh so they were here exploring like she was, at least partially. That was nice and always fun, she didn’t really have a home per say so she just went where the winds took her so to speak. ”Oh how fun! I was just exploring really. I haven’t been this far from where I hatched before and well this place felt interesting so I decided to check it out.” The girl offered sweetly, she seemed to be the talkative type. ”So where do you live, here in this place or somewhere else? I don’t really have a home, I just mostly wander.” The girl commented and took a step closer to the new creature interested in them and wanting to possibly make friends.

Stormy smiled brightly at the new creature. Coming closer she took note of the sharp teeth the creature had, but made no move of fear. She saw no reason to be afraid when the newcomer had made no aggressive movements whatsoever, in fact they had been rather polite. When she told the creature she thought they were unique they seemed to puff up their feathers. This made Stormy smile a bit wider. ”If I may ask. What are you?” The girl asked sweetly her voice filled with innocence. She truly wanted to know what they were, she really had never seen anything like them.

Stormy tilted her head to one side as she listened to Kalaziel speak. So they had a group? How nice to not be alone. ”That sounds interesting. I’ve never met a snail that talked before. But I wouldn’t be against making more of them, after all some of them have really pretty shells.” The little girl blurted out in a rather overly friendly manner. Her personality showed that she was a bit talkative and curious.
