JAXIS
HANDS STEEPED IN BLOOD
It was hard not to notice the bird that had fluttered down in to the Court, the deep bellow of a voice that wasn't from the creature itself. Hard to miss how the earth had danced and shook and reformed. Jaxis was keen on observation usually, but this level of what had happened was absurd, and she was rather surprised that there weren't many others already trekking up to the towering trees and what felt like unseen eyes settling on them.
For once, her speckled flanks gave a twitch of unease, her horned head turning as she blinked at the towering plants before her. Mottled lips parted, and Jax found herself licking her lips instead, her ears swiveling to pin back against the waves of ivory mane that settled against her nape and skull.
"So is anyone really here? Or are you just playing games with us?" She finally piped up, perking her ears again as she stepped forward, coming closer to the trees. She was tall, but these trees seemed otherworldly in their massive stature, as if plucked from ancient times and grown to replace actual mountains. Jaxis felt dwarfed, a feat that was not easily achieved.
One massive hoof pawed at the ground, before she lifted it up and knocked against the bark of one of the closest trees that she could reach, looking up at the canopy before back down to where she had touched. It certainly seemed like a normal tree, too, even if it was some titanic creation from the mouths and hands of the deities.
"You guys didn't just grow these for nothing. Or send out birds with voices just to do it...." Her ears twisted back, annoyed for a second. Were they here to intervene with the tensions of the Courts? "What are you here for...? Why now?"
