The rosy touch of dawn was just starting to tinge the sky as Liesel left the Dawn Court, her silvery skin gleaming in the early morning light. Her silver locks, usually loose, were tucked into neat, efficient braids that pulled the hair away from her elegant face, revealing her razor boned jawline. The cleanness of her was revealed that way, the neatness of her bones and the pureness of her soft skin. It made her look younger, especially when she lowered her ivory lashes. Even so early in the morning the rustle of paper could be heard, the scholars of Dawn rarely pausing their work for nuisances like dawn or dusk. Liesel made quick work of the travel, moving with a fluid grace she had inherited from her sire. She could remember him - barely. At least a vision of blue and a sensual voice, filled with arrogance and elegance, but beautiful. His name lingered upon her tongue, touched the back of her mind with a familiar, insistent push - and yet... it did not come, his face faded and Liesel was left frustrated and memoryless. Though she had intended it, the summer girl found herself surprised when she reached the cliffside of the Terminus. It was not the most pleasant of oceans - certainly not as pristine as... as the one she saw in her dreams. Despite it's differences though, the shifting scent of the Terminus calmed her, spoke to her. Salt and sand. It was one of the strongest things she could remember before awaking upon the Wave Breaker. Her dainty chest rose as she filled it with the salt and seaweed smell, watching the rising sun over the choppy horizon, her amber eyes filling with the brilliant sight. A gentle breeze wound it's way through her soft silver hair, touching the base of her neck coolly. Memories were so close, like shadows pressing against the edge of her vision - but all she could see was this ocean, these lands. Despite that, despite yearning with every inch of her lithe body to remember, Liesel could not say she was unhappy with her present situation. The sun lifted ever higher as it awoke the world and emblazoned the summer girl, embracing her as she breathed and wondered. @Damascus @tag |
