Cai
Cal X Carys
Your kingdom has turned to a bone yard,
The look on your face as you leave.
You cut me so deep that it left scars,
You had the world right at your feet.
The look on your face as you leave.
You cut me so deep that it left scars,
You had the world right at your feet.
Cai's journey took him further into the north, his footing faltered every now and then, still trying to get used to the ice laden surface that he hoped to call his home. His meeting with Mari had been brief, but one that clung to the back of his mind like a warm memory. He was making his way north, to a place he was told he'd find Offspring or anyone else of the Tundra, and northwards he headed from then on.
It didn't take him long to grow accustomed to the iced winds and the blinding snow drifts, he quickly caught on when to avoid going through snow, and when it was safe. And every now and then he'd catch himself playing in the snow, tossing his head around, rearing and bucking, as if he were a young colt. The games he played, were only for his eyes, deprived of him at a young age, for some reason Cai felt at ease here in the north, despite it being so open, so clear, and bright, he felt totally alone. The forest where he grew up was a tragedy compared to the openness of thw blinding white north.
Brown eyes watched the horizon as it seemed to grow angrier and angrier, he was unsure what it meant but he did not like the way the sky darkened, the clouds drifting together in a daunting manner causing Cai to search the landscape for anything that could provide him shelter until the clouds settled.
His pace quickened to a canter as he began to feel a panic rise within him, but eventually he found something, an outcropping in the land, he didn't know what it was, or what lay there but he knew he had to get there before the clouds got to him and brought whatever hell down upon him that they wished to punish him with.
As he stumbles into the mouth of a cave, covered in white that was brought upon him by the blizzard Cai's first instinct tells him to turn and run, to reach back out into the storm, to potentially freeze and become lost forever. But he doesn't, no matter how much the bones in his body scream at him to do so. His brown eyes flickered through the cave, adjusting to the light -or rather, lack of the brightness from outside. He is met with two faces, neither he recognizes. He hesitates, flattening his ears and begins to take a few steps back, but then something inside him clicks and he holds his ground, ears pointing forth he shies away from the cold storm outside, making his way further into the cave, closer to the two strangers. He eyes the stallion wearily, uneasy about him, unsure what he may so, or worse, do. The mare seems well enough, but still that does not mean he trusted her. The cave was a means to escape the storm, and he happened to have picked one with two others within its depths.
"I did not mean to intrude" He apologizes, his lungs still burnt from his journey towards the mountains, to find shelter from the storm. His need for shelter and warmth though, was overriding his fear of others at this point, and right now he didn't not care if they judged or if they knew. Right now, he needed shelter.
