jane
To watch her discover the world was something unto itself. Each new object was something magical to her, things that Jane had long ago stopped considering. Grass was grass, a foodstuff that one ate to survive. Not the tastiest thing in the world. The stars were beautiful but just stars. The water… carried feeling within it, but at the end of the day a puddle on the ground meant only that it had rained recently.
But for this person, newly arrived, the grass on the earth was foreign. Her hooves seemed nearly to push against the earth, expecting for it to release her. Jane found herself wanting to take her home, to show her all the magnificent things that the world had to offer. Jane’s very name was a revelation for the filly, whose eyes seemed to possess depths of emotion that Jane couldn’t conceive of.
When Jane spoke of the stars, the mare seemed almost shocked. Something awoke within her of which Jane was orchestrator. Not sure whether to feel guilty or impressed, Jane watched the knowledge awake inside the mare. Then a sound, stuttering, fighting sound that seemed nearly to claw its way out of the creature’s body. J-jane. It took a moment for Jane to register that it was her name. Then a smile spread across her face so she was beaming. “Yes! That’s me!"
I… the Veil Nebula.
Against the true groundbreaking nature of it all, Jane was simply aware of the gratitude of being given another’s name. “Hello, Veil. It’s nice to meet you.” She nodded her head in greeting.
