The sun setting over the horizon is a sight that never gets old. Warm light sweeping over flat fields of emerald green, turning it to soft golden tendrils. Changing to turquoise as dusk sweeps over it with its purple shadows. This was a sight Luvena had seen more times than she could count. First in Herstial, then the Viridian fields of Elysium. The first place she had seen in Elysium were those fields, and she regretted not having visited them before she left.
But this was close. As the light swept over the Susurro fields she felt her heart fill with both sorrow and hope, and her mind swam in memories of times gone past. She had found this place, after two long years of travel, that had taken their toll on her. She had been strong when she left Elysium. The gift of immortality coursing through her veins. But as she left Elysiums magic, so too did it leave her. It wasn't so bad at first, as it left slowly. But as time wore on she felt everything coming back. At first, it was just the fatigue, which she attributed to the constant traveling. But then she noticed the stars leave her pelt, and the luster slowly faded back to a dull beige. Her mane began thinning. Her appetite left her and she began to lose weight again until her ribs showed, and her hips became twin peaks n her rump. the aches and pains came back, as did the headaches. It was just like it had been, and yet this time she was on her own again.
until she found it. Novus. She had wandered in at first not knowing and found a sheltered place to call it a night. In the morning she woke, and continuing on, she noticed that there were others around her. This was a populated land. She had wandered into the territory of the dusk court, and decided that for now. This was where she would stay.
This evening, she wandered the fields. Trying to memorize the details of the sprawling plains. There were a few others around her, but she hadn't worked up the nerve to go introduce herself yet. At one time she was used to being looked at strangely, and with pity. But in Elysium, where she was known, they had stopped looking at her that way, and once she was blessed by Vega, no one had any need to. But here she was a stranger, and she dreaded once again being looked at that way once more.
(I'm super rusty! Sorry guys! This is Lu's first post here and I'd love to have her meet some people!)
