fiasko
In the midst of the silence, there’s a small kernel of life. It’s been growing for the past few months, and it brings Fiasko hope. After the wildfires had ravaged the kingdom, she had thought it might be the end - the kingdom had been all but dead. But now, life returns.She seeks it out, in spite of herself. Normally she would hang back, but she knows that she cannot continue to live like that. Especially when the kingdom is in such dire need.
The scent of a new horse reaches her nose, and she tracks it down, following the wind back to its source. She finds it within minutes, and is pleased to find, not one, but two horses at the Gates’ lake.
She recognizes one of them - the stallion. He’s relatively new to the Gates, and she’s seen him out and about more than once. She wonders if the newcomer - the black mare - is a recruit of his. If so, that is a promising start to the Jason’s life here in the Gates.
“Hello there!” She smiles her characteristic crooked smile. As always, she worries about what the mare’s response will be to her mutilated face, but she tries to push down the fear. Strangely she is having more success than usual. Maybe it is because she knows Jason has already seen it. “Welcome to the Gates! I’m Fiasko.”
i'm still waiting for the world to end
