Aestate Umbrae Festival
The racers were greatly varied and each had strengths and weaknesses that would become more evident as they moved into the more challenging of the legs. For now, Uzuri found herself watching those on the course with a smile and doing her best to not root for anyone in particular. She was not to be biased at this point.
As they turned around the final bend and raced toward the line that would mark the end after the second lap, she watched where they were running. The beginning of the course was clearly marked with furrows from the dinosaurian mare, smaller chunks of earth dug by Below Zero. The little fae seemed out of her element, though trying hard. Her eyes paused on Phoebe and Aeon, smiling as they ran.
Stepping forward as the racers passed the line, she cleared her throat and projected her voice over those that were watching.
“The runners have finished their first lap! In first place at this point, Pangaea! Just behind her, Phoebe! Absynthe and Below Zero are tied for third with Aeon racing at Absynthe’s flank! This is close and there is still plenty of race!”
Uzi let her eyes focus on each as they ran, her legs itching to run with them.
Ok! So we have reached the end of lap one! At this point, the rankings are:
1. Pangaea
2. Phoebe
3. Absynthe
4. Below Zero
5. Aeon
We will be keeping the original line up for the second half, meaning the next post belongs to Absynthe! I will be working on that next <3
Runners:
@Absynthe
@Phoebe
@Aeon
@Pangaea
@Below Zero
And so with the sunshine
and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees,
just as things grow fast in movies,
I had that familiar conviction that
life was beginning over again with summer.
