ORIGIN

Stormy watched the newcomer curiously as they seemed to mull her question over. They honestly seemed bewildered at what she had asked. However Stormy stood by politely awaiting an answer from her new acquaintance. She wasn’t exactly sure what she was expecting them to say, but after a while they finally spoke up saying they didn’t actually know what they were. A light smile spread over her muzzle as she watched them coil up. ”That’s alright. Not everyone knows exactly what they are. Some are born knowing what they are, sometimes you have to make it up along the way.” The young girl offered sweetly. She was offering at least a little assurance to them that they wouldn’t always not know.

The young girl shifted her weight half fidgeting as they stood talking. She was curious about this group that Kalaziel was a part of. They made snails? How interesting they were slimy and slow, but she liked their shells. She had seen snails more than once when she had knocked over rocks before and they were hiding under there. They had neat little shells that made swirly patterns.

Kalaziel then offered to take Stormy to the group, but only after they had found their leader. Oh no that wasn’t any good, having someone so important missing wasn’t a good thing that was for sure. ”Oh no, how horrible. It’s never good when someone is missing.” The girl chided sweetly to her new acquaintance. ”Oh I don’t mind helping to look if you guys think my help would be of any use. I do travel a lot so I can keep an eye open for her if you tell what she looks like!” The young filly offered kindly, she travelled all over the place so she could of course keep her eyes open for anyone they told her to. ”If I find her can bring her back to you guys if you tell me where to bring her too.” The girl offered, she could of course take a detour from her travelling to bring back someone who had been missing.

Stormy offered a gentle smile as she spoke to the creature before her. Kalaziel was actually a very interesting creature to have met. She wasn’t sure what they were but they were fun to look at and think about what they possibly could be. The young horse took a few steps closer to gain a better look at the creature, she hoped not to be invading their space, so she stopped about a yard away from them.

Stormy felt for some reason that helping the Voidcrawlers look for their leader was the right thing to do. She didn’t know why but something instinctually told her that you were safer together rather than alone. Something also told her deep down, that losing one's leader was not a good thing and that it was in fact very bad. She knew that you looked to your leader in times of need and great stress, they were there to help you and to comfort you.

Stormy listened as Kalaziel talked about their leader. So she was a snail. SHe knew from the snails in Eridanus she had found under rocks that some had beautifully colored shells. Though the ones she had come in contact with had not been brilliant enough to talk. This was rather impressive to the young girl as she brightened. ”That’s so cool! I didn’t know snails could talk! All the ones I’ve met just moved around and ate plants. I mean they had really pretty shells but they didn’t do much.” Then she thought about where they lived. ”What’s a swamp? I’ve never been to a swamp before.” The girl admitted with a smile, she wondered what this place could be like.
