'I'm here, I'm here...'

His voice was so soft then so...gentle, what happened? "Ghost? Ghost wait, what are-" and just like that, just like that he was gone. I watched from a distance as he disappeared into the mist and I had to pretend he never existed. He promised me, though. He promised me he'd be back one day and take me to a safe haven but that promise hadn't come true. I aged, I dealt, I moved on. My sides heaved heavily as a sigh escaped me, my charred lips parted just slightly as I drew in another deep breath of fresh air. It had been awhile since I had seen such an open, inviting space. I had lived within thick wooded area's and it was there that the band I was born into acquired the name wood nymph. Strange but true. I walked steadily forward, investigating everything with my doe like eyes. His voice still echoed in my head, beckoning me forward. I walked stiffly toward the unknown, my mind set on finding him even though reality knew he was gone; I wouldn't believe it. I couldn't. Ghost was my everything, the only friend I had in my early days up until just a few months ago. I was content, living within the harem alone as the daughter of the king, the only child born to his grace. Ghost was just another to partake in my coming of age.

'I have something to do, Bells. I-...I promise I'll be back.'

The fear, his words trembled from his perfect lips and I watched, doe eyed as he disappeared from my sight. I tried to follow him, but he was much swifter than I and the mist had swallowed him up. I was left standing, baffled without answers to my unheard questions. Surely he'd return and of course days later he did, less of what he was. A knight. The knight I desired but he was home now, only to leave me again. Our short comings weren't anything new to me and I grew accustom to his frequent disappearance act. Soon enough I was able to shrug it off. Although the final time had me chasing at his heels until I could not run any further. I ended up lost, down dusty trails and beaten paths that led me to this unfamiliar land. "Ghost, please...come out, I'm tired! I want to go home." I begged. Each word scratched at my parched throat and my tone faltered at the end. I sighed heavily and stopped, glancing around with wide eyes at the few who lingered in the distance. Did I wander to far? "Ghost!" I whispered harshly into the quiet. "I can't find the path home, I need YOU" I screeched but I was only answered by silence. I stepped further away from the others and down toward an empty space. I needed to be alone, to come to terms that I wasn't getting home any time soon and my lack of directional skills was defiantly not on my side now. I would have to seek out help from those familiar to this area sooner or later...

Not a day goes by that I keep asking myself, what happened that day the snow decided to fling itself off from the mountain top? Where the heavens so upset at us earth dwellers that they felt some sort of correction had to be made? Mother Nature playing a cruel prank, or a freak accident where if you were near by you happened to be in the wrong place at the worst of times. Some weren't as fortunate as I. I was able to wake after being tumbling about amidst all the white, sky and earth, every which way direction imaginable. My head hit something then all went blank. Faces within my mind, their names wiped clear of all history, I was glad to remember my own name. Yeah, I know, I've said I'm just going to let the past be the past, and move on from there, but one's mind tends to wander where it's not allowed when there is nothing to do or no one to converse with. That was my fault completely, all blame should be pinned to me. I've been a loner of sorts, only mingling when paths were crossed. Not once did I have intentions of going out and finding another, not until now. I was getting quite frustrated with my traveling thoughts, that a little bit of companionship would do me a world of good, as I the same for whoever responds to my greeting.

My mood was anything but chipper on this brisk day, though I was trying to make the best of it so my plans wouldn't go spoiled. The wind picked up then swirling several unfamiliar scents around my nostrils. It was a good sign, for a solitary as my current role in life was the land around me seemed to mirror me. The promise of newcomers into the lands would break this awkward looking glass and begin a new chapter in life for all involved. For to long have the lands remained dormant and with this title hanging upon my shoulders I felt as if it were my duty to bring things back to life, to what they once were, if not more grand than before. Quite the responsibility, but it's something that has to be done. This day was going to be the day where I leave patrolling the boarders of my valley to go in search of any soul who'd be willing to share my company. Allowing my swift limbs to carry me easily across the terrain I headed in the direction of Firiona Glade. It's open landscape providing ample visual range of it's surroundings. It was sometime in the afternoon that my hooves met with the sponge-like ground of the Glade. Eyes traced over it's outline until several figures showed themselves. Though I wasn't interested in chatting with a group, that would be a little too much. Just trying to slowly work on getting the social skills back and to feel better again.

It wasn't until stepping further into the lands that my mocha rimmed pupils caught sight of a grulla tinted mare wandering on her own. Her reasons were her own for being alone, but the glades were not meant for solitude. Instead of just standing there and watching, waiting for another to approach the lone maiden, I gathered myself up before casually making my way over to her. Keeping at a respective distance I halted diagonally to her, so that I wasn't giving some sort of power stare like some do when they walk straight at another. I had managed to place a weak smile upon my lips before breaking the silence. "Afternoon Miss. How might you be on this brisk day?" Manners, check, awkwardness, hopefully not check.

Complete ~ Sorry that took a heck of a while to get up for you!
