The stallion's voice was somehow clear despite the buzzing that was resonating through her very core, and though his orders frightened her, she would do anything to get away from the buzzing, to get away from this place at all.
Astra took a few steps backwards before running towards the edge, shutting her eyes tightly as she plunged herself into the hungry mouth. The young mare fell for what felt like forever, and she eventually risked opening her eyes; however, curiosity was quickly replaced by horror as something began to swim around her. This thing had no shape, it confused her to watch it, every few seconds it seemed to change in appearance, making her unsure of what it truly was. The strange beast swirled closer to her now, before plunging its form into her own through her chest, causing Astra to desperately gasp for air. Her body felt so cold now, colder somehow than even when she had been met with death at the start of this hellish journey. A strange sense of numbness stole her, feeling drained at first before feeling absolutely nothing at all. Blue eyes gazed in front of her as she watched the beast flee from her body, taking away not only the cold but also something she was unsure of. Something felt like it was missing, but she could not fully comprehend what, and after a few seconds, she forgot entirely.
Finally reaching the end of the glowing maw, Astra felt her delicate body hit the ground with enough force to knock the air from her lungs. Choked gasps were all she could manage for a few minutes, laying on what felt like more sand as she slowly steadied her breathing once again. She shook the sand free from her pale coat as she stood, before raising her head to look at where she was; and it was quite a strange sight when she did so. If the abstract thoughts of an individual could become a tangible habitat, this place was it. Everything within the vicinity seemed more like an idea than a solid form, trees moved in strange ways and everything seemed to be made of liquid. It was as if someone had painted them into this land, and was now washing them away; but why?
Usually her mind would be full of confusion, excitement, and in this case, fear. Yet, right now she could not seem to feel anything at all, and she did not care that she could not feel anything. Soon, she realized that's what the beast had taken. She no longer desired to move towards anything, not tired or bored nor even afraid, yet also not excited nor relieved in any sense. She no longer felt any particular emotions no matter what was happening or what she laid her eyes upon. As she looked around her, nothing really seemed boring, but yet nothing was interesting, nothing scared her nor did anything bring her comfort, there was no particular feeling towards anything at all, she simply did not care for anything that was happening around her. Something deep down did feel wrong, especially this place, something felt very wrong about it; but this point, Astra did not care whether or not she made it out of here alive, she did not care what the goal of this was. That's all there was to it now, not caring.
Something far off began to move, and she craned her neck forward while squinting, trying to make out what it was. It seemed so unidentifiable to her now, and though the horrid buzzing was gone, she could still feel it deep in her bones, making her hesitant to move at all. She decided that maybe that was best, though. It was best to stay here for now, and wait for orders, it didn't feel like it mattered anyways what the strange thing was, all of this was strange and nothing really felt important anymore.</div> <div style="text-align:center;font:27px'Unica One', cursive;color:#FFFFFF;text-shadow:0px 0px 15px #000000;">Just wanna take this chance to fly</div> <div style="background:url('https://media2.giphy.com/media/VdboHIcSqXfOUsFYqf/giphy.gif') top;-webkit-background-clip:text;color:transparent;line-height:0px;padding:10px 5px;text-align:center;margin-top:-65px;font:150px'Libre Barcode 39', cursive;">Brutess</div></div>
