ORION
exiled prince
These lands were... different.
All lands were different, of course, but there was something about these that sprung hope somewhere deep down in the man's chest, caused it to bloom as he inhaled slowly and turned his head, focusing milky looking eyes on the structure before him. It reminded him of home, in some small way, though it lacked the terror and the scent of smoke. It was warm and forgiving here, something he had long searched for over time, since he was a young boy.
Echoes of the past still chased him, even here, but he steered himself forward despite it, his horned head lifting as he walked carefully and heard the fall of his hooves on every step. Clip, clop, clip, clop. The sounds calmed him as it formed a rhythm, and his head lifted more, a confidence rising in his chest, settling in and warming him. It'd been a long time since Orion felt so much comfort, and he could only hope that perhaps there was a place for him here.
A few more steps, and he found himself inside the walls, leaving a gate behind him as he walked and drew in breaths. It was... well. He wasn't jittery surrounded by the stone as he thought he would be, and his ears swiveled forward, his eyes softening and his scarred lips twitching in to a smile.
Yes. Perhaps this could be home, a new home, a new allegiance.
