[P] Dancing Skies

[Cassilyn]

The cold breeze hastily caressed her skin with icy fingers and the woman couldn’t help but shiver. Cassilyn eagerly pulled her wings closer, the feathers puffed out and acted as a sort of jacket. It was frigid, the night brought on a truly remarkable frost and the silence that rung so loudly in her ears seemed to stretch on for ages. The only sound present across the prairie was the crunch of snow beneath her hooves. It was quiet here, so quiet and lonely. The solitary organ inside her ribcage ached as her pale verdant eyes moved across the vastness before her. The fallen queen halted and allowed her eyes to travel upwards to the heavens. The stars twinkled brightly, the crispness of the night elevated their beauty. The woman sighed and her breath appeared as a cloud before her and suddenly, the sky erupted before her. On the horizon, the air danced and swayed, the colors rich and exotic. Blues, greens and purples reflected off the shiny, ivory of her skin. The beauty enraptured the lonely girl who watched in the snow. For a moment, the cold seemed to fall away, a warmth blossomed in her belly and spread throughout her bodice. The bliss that suddenly filled her was so unexpected that a smile spread easily across her velvety lips. Even though she hadn’t yet made it to the library she’d heard so much about, this seemed worth the many miles of travel and her tired wings. It was almost a dream, it reminded her of tales of heaven and it reminded her of The Brothers. “How lovely,” the woman whispered as she continued to stare up at the lively night sky. The lights moved so freely, the dance effortless and the alabaster woman hoped that one day she’d be able to do the same. @Ipomoea OOC: Still a little rusty but it's so nice to be writing her again!
