Fuck the closing of the boarders. Somnus could kiss her ass if he thought that a little boarder closing would keep her locked up until the end of time. She didn’t care if there was a monster on the lose, the talk of magic had her wanting to get out and stretch her legs.
The jaunt over to the Steppe was a quick one, one in which she stuck close to the tree line, allowing the shadows to hide her cover. Sloane had never been one to simply run out into the open and expose herself like some did. Something told her that magic flowers in the middle of a barren field was a trap. Surely something was just waiting for her to even look at the flowers before attacking. No. Sloane was smarter than that.
The mare arrived at sunup, watching the flowers cautiously from the cover of trees. She watched as one, two, three, and more kept coming. Some stood in the flowers, some took the flowers, some just stood there looking at the flowers. She did this until the sun began to set. So far, no one had been attacked, killed, zapped, teleported, or anything of that matter. In fact, nothing really seemed to happen to them.
And so, when she was sure that she was alone, she began to step from her hiding spot within the shadows. Slowly, she stepped closer to the flowers to get a better look at them. She noticed that they glistened far more than normal flowers, almost as if the light was reflecting off water from an April shower. But there had been no rain.
As she came up upon the flowers, she saw just why the flowers were glistening. The flowers weren’t plants, not exactly. They were made from gemstones. It was an add thing, but it was enough to make her cautious. If their material wasn’t enough to put her on edge, the music that played through the wind was enough to irritate her and make her uneasy. What sort of set up was this? And so, she just watched them, unwilling to really interact with them for fear of the unknown. She wanted to understand why these flowers were here and what their purpose was. She needed to understand everything there was about them.
