as essie continues to rest and watch the crowds go by, her ears flick up as a large
stallion approaches her. his hooves make a clicking sound as they make
their way to her. she gleams up at him, mouth agape, almost in awe of his tall stature.
The man speaks, "You're a new face. Welcome to Delumine, and the Festival of Music
and Arts. Are you a visitor from another court, or perhaps someone seeking a
home in Dawn Court?" essie flicks her head to the side, her wings fumble along
with the sharp movement, as the stallion realizes he may have approached essie too
forwardly. He speaks once more, this time with a lower tone,
"I am Orion, Dawn Court Emissary. A pleasure to meet you."
Essies face slowly turns from curious to extremely pleased.
her wings flutter slightly at the welcoming words of this new acquaintance.
"I am Essielure, and the pleasure is all mine, kind sir." essie spoke with a child
like grin on her face. noticing she was still flopped on the soil, she perks up and stands
at attention to properly greet the Emissary. "my goodness!" essie, dusting the
dirt off her knees, looks up at the stallion, "i really must not forget my manners"
she giggles, then clears her throat to answer his question. "yes, i have just arrived
actually, and was hoping to find an inn that i could unpack and rest at. do you
have any suggestion?" the mare pleasantly smiled at Orion.
