secrets of a foreign land
For the first few days, the island appeared somewhat-normal.
It was a world saturated in color, with strange - yet harmless - creatures that roamed its shores, seemingly unafraid of the equines they encountered. It’s strange, that the island has not been burned to a crisp by the volcano’s eruption, or that ash does not still coat its white sand beaches. The volcano appears dormant, as if it has never been in danger of erupting, and despite the events from the past few days a sense of safety holds tightly to the new land.
But safety is a fallacy, as many of you know - as many of you are soon to find out.
Under the cover of night, when no eyes are around to watch, the beach trembles. Sand shifts and parts, sifting itself to the side to reveal a smooth black bedrock. Slowly the bedrock rises, flowing like animated water. It groans and creaks, shape ever-changing throughout the night. But as dawn creeps over the horizon it becomes still, and the sand flows back undisturbed to cover the hole it had left.
Standing on the beach, where the bridge connects to the island, is a smooth black statue of a unicorn, horn piercing the sky as it climbs a mountain that resembles the volcano of the island.
And tied around the unicorn’s horn is a note.
Time is Free.
Time is Here.
The first horse to cross the bridge that morning only stares at the statue with thinly-veiled awe, waiting as others gather.
