Blood is Thicker Than Water //Any\\ - Karat - 05-30-2018 Karat Blood is Thicker than Water Swiftly she leaves the oasis that had been her childhood home. Peeling away from its sandy beaches as Kylin vanishes from sight. There was no purpose to her being there anymore. The one who had promised to cherish her, breaks her heart as he takes to the skies. The gold and cream stallion is nothing more than another memory now. As is the island when her hooves plant along solid ground. The forest was quite strange to her. Only having known tropical climates and vegetation, she wonders what she might come across... This is an attempted escape from Ischia thread as well...

A quiet observer as she was, he was haunted by the lavender hue of her coat and her piercing hazel eyes. She was gorgeous, enchanting. The meeting with Warrick and Kromium sent shivers down his spine. It was finally showing itself as true - the once peaceful Beqanna he had known was gone, traded in for one of uncertainty. He’d been practicing his battling skills, but the fact she was absent was always on his mind. Was she safe, was she hurt? Who was taking care of the princess who’d never been on her own? It was these thoughts that carried him past the water and here, to the river. With all the evil running rampant, he couldn’t in good conscious allow her to go alone in the common lands...someone would pick her up, someone would find a way to harm her… Anxiety? Maybe. But it was enough to bring him here. He is glowing (literally), his armor bright and blinding. Surely, if she was around, she’d see this and come...wouldn’t she?

I had been trapped beneath Sylva's canopy since the clown had stolen me there, and it was getting a bit old. I would return. We both knew I would. But for now, the sky called me, as it always did. It was in my blood, a lasting gift from my parents before me. Thinking on them threatened to sour my mood. Without another thought, the vast sails of my wings extended and swept me through branches and into free air. With strong beats, I carve the air like a shark through water. This is my element, what I was born to. Half an hour into my cruising, and the river has become a shining ribbon beneath me. It has been so long since I've flown this long, and while I hate to land, I'm rather thirsty. A quick drink won't hurt. In a controlled spiral I descend, watching the waters open beneath me until I could make out details, bodies. One stands out, a lithe form of silver and lavender, slightly obscured with foliage. On a whim, this is where I choose to plant my feet. Like a great hawk, I land mere feet from the girl. My half sister. "Karat. It's been a while." I nicker at her gently. @[Karat] RE: Blood is Thicker Than Water //Any\\ - Karat - 05-30-2018 Karat Blood is Thicker than Water With her optics sealed tightly and soft chanting filled her ears, she did not hear them approach. The earthy armor that wrapped her tightly soothed her fears somewhat, but it was a voice that cooed her name that renewed her vision. "Kwartz?" she barely whispers at what could be a figment of her imagination before her. She hadn't seen her brother in years. When she realizes he is real, tears begin to fill her eyes. Beginnings of the pooled, salty liquid, trail down her cheek as she nearly lunges forward to embrace her sibling. She had been waiting months for this moment, to feel the touch of her family once again. "I should have never went with him Kwartz. I should have stayed with my family..." She sobs as her vision blurs. With her head at his shoulder, she presses into him. The warmth of his body was even more soothing than the armor she had fashioned. "I wanna go home. Can you take me home please?" she whimpers to him. @[Trekori] @[Kwartz] @[Phoebus] RE: Blood is Thicker Than Water //Any\\ - Trekori - 05-30-2018 Trekori i'm freezing, it's not winter yet RE: Blood is Thicker Than Water //Any\\ - Phoebus - 05-30-2018 Phoebus They are young, all of them. No matter what they wanted to say, they still needed experience ( your temper will simmer down with age, Phoebus, but remember keeping your cool will get your further in life). So when an angry feminine voice rises from the trees and to his ears, he immediately trots towards it. The scene he stumbles upon isn’t exactly what he’s expecting. He sees Kwartz (it’s been ages, lord. Had he run from his captors too?), and Karat, and another he does not recognize. But the stale scent of sea foam and salt tells him this is probably someone from the Brotherhood. Karat is refusing to go with him. He allows the glow of his armor to die down, and he looks at Karat thoughtfully. She will hate him, but Trekori was right. “Karat…” I say, sighing. “You have to go. But since Tephra and Ischia are aligned, maybe he will allow me to go with you to drop you off to make you more comfortable. It won’t be long Karat, and then you’ll be home.” he looks over to the golden stallion, who is retreating to the darkness. “Come on, Karat, you have to go…” Ice eyes glance over to Kwartz. “I’ll see you around…?” Phoebus wonders if he ever will.
