Gossip of the land

Gossip

Gaze in a mirror...
I'll stare back...

I smiled to myself as I trotted along. The world seemed weird. Stallions seemed to be walking all over me and my life. I shook my head at the thought and sped up as I hummed my tune to myself. I stopped abruptly, and looked around. A weird smeel entered my nostrils and I snorted. Where am I... I said, almost to myself. I looked around again and then I started to the left, thinking where I was. I stopped, feeling as though I was in the center of somewhere glorious. It was such a gorgeous place. I took a deep breath of the crisp fresh air and closed my eyes, dreaming whilst awake. Was it possible?

My mood hadn't lightened over the past few days. Ever since others had started to arrive here, in the precious land, Moonglade. I had liked it, when it was just me and Asteria, just like old times, back in the homeland, when i watched over her. Chuckling to myself, i stalked on, circling the great perimeter of the land. I loved the job i had been given. The Secondary Mare, but also, Warrior. I roamed the outskirts of the lands, searching for any clues of the outside world, and dealing with intruders. Getting to hear sob stories, most, which were rather pathetic.

Standing at 16.3hh; i towered over most equines, for i wasn't just tall, but bulky too, my pure blood of a Friesian allowed me to fill a decent space. Making me look horricic and fearful from a distance, and even more so close up. I had a scar, running from my forehead, down, over my right eye, and half-way down my cheek. Also, i had deep amber eyes, i looked evil. and i loved it.

Coming back to my senses as a new scent reached my nares, they flared and a loud snort was emitted another? Shaking my skull, so tassles were flung out of my eyes, so amber and scar were both revealed. I broke into an easy trot, as the scent became more clear, obviously, i was gaining closer to this newcomer. and sure enough, her spotted figure came into sight, i didn't slow until i was only a few metres away, of course, i was a threat, with my neck arched, muscles almost bursting out of my ebony skin. amber eyes glared down on the mare, demanding questions, my nares remained flared, and a light sweat had speckled on my pelt, dampening my figure.

For a few moments, i remained in silence, but then i spoke, tones with dark essence. What brings you to this land mare? I demanded, something i always did. I wasn't what you could call 'friendly' towards mares i didn't know, and stallion, heck no. The only mare i respceted was Asteria. And i douted no other would earn my trust nor respect anytime soon.

I found myself backing away from the mare, stunned by her appearance. Larger in frame. Short temper by the sounds of it. I courtesly dipped my head and rose it slowly. So sorry, miss, but I wandered in this direction by accident. This land is just so beautiful. It makes you appreciate the nature... I had almost forgotton. I was dark. These lands seemed to change me. I shook my head and looked away from the taller mare. I smirked and turned my head back to her. Oh, where are my manners?! I am Gossip. And you, miss? I asked, my ears flicked so one was back and one faced the mare.

A sly smirk spread across my muzzle as she backed away, in shock prehaps? Many often did not realise my full appearence until i was upon them, and by then, it was normally too late. A moment after she had backed up, my amber eyes narrowed and i advanced on her, leaving a gap smaller than the one to begin with. she dipped her skull and raise dit again, a sign of respect, however, she eld none of my respect just yet.

Her words seemed rushed, as though she was spilling out an excuse for being here, however, it was reasonable. "Very well." I snapped. Taking in her spotted apperance. i hadn't seen many like her before. "The lands you have stumbled across are no other than Moonglade. This is a land for mares who do not wish to have anything to do with stallions, apart from breeding season, of course. Abused mares often come ehre, or simply those who cannot stand the power the brutes think they hold." I explained, licking at my dry maw. The wind teased at my tresses, easing them away from my face, revealing a large scar i held, from my forehead, over my right eye and down my cheek. How would she feel aboutt his. Many cringed and ran, that didn't bother me. But for Asteria's sake, i had to try and largen the herd. As shespoke again, i nodded. "Gossip: I am chiron, warrior and Second in Command here, at Moonglade. I tld her, my amber eyes glintin as the sun rays caught them.

Chiron. Such a name was rare to come across. As the wind attacked her mane, the scar revealed did not shock me. It made me smirk, was all. I nodded at the explanation and looked around. It sounds more like a haven. T'is a very good idea, Chiron. But, you say you are second in command, who be the first? Just out of curiousity... I wanted to know. If I was to stay, I should learn who I was to be commanded by. It was only right to know. I noticed the elder mare was looking at my coat. I shivvered and flicked my tail. The spring was getting to me. I hardly felt heat, only the cold.

Amber eyes stared down at this other. It was nothing personal, i always did it. no one except Asteria, my friend, had my trust. And i douted that would change. As she spoke, a low twisted cackle escaped my kissers. My harks flickered towards her slightly. "One can see things as illusions, Gossip. The land is sacred, once you have comitted yourself here, you may not leave. Nor tell any outsider of her whereabouts. I clearly staed in a loud yet stern voice. The speech was what i did with every newcomer.

As she asked aobut Asteria; my mind wandered to her. when we were young we fought, i taught her tricks, how to fight. I felt like her gaurdian, and still did now, i knew she could look after herself, but i still felt it was my duty to take care of her. "Her name is Asteria, a very good friend of mine. Will there be anything else you wish to know?" i asked her in the same catty yet stern tone as before.
