A Queen of Hearts
Name: Caryiln Naia
Temper: Loving
Personality: Caryiln Naia is sweet, albeit a little forward and somewhat brutally honest. She's brave in the face of just about everything, except for when it comes to matters of the heart. When it comes to love, Caryilin is shy and backward, her lips closed on to any words that would show one how she feels.
History: Before she stumbled upon the Kawani lands, Caryiln lived in a small herd that was comprised of mostly family. Like many a young foal, Caryiln wove exaggerated tales that came from her imagination to her parents. Worried that their daughter would continue this "lying" habit into adulthood, both parents impressed upon her the need to tell the truth, regardless of if it hurt.
As she grew, Caryiln became enraptured with a stallion from another herd. Caryiln spent as much time trying to catch the eye of her would be mate, and succeeded in gaining his attentions. The stallion was egotistical and arrogant, though only to hide his low self esteem. As the two lovers sat one dusk, watching the sun dip below the mountains, he asked Caryiln what she thought of him. Her thoughts immediately turned to how she made him feel, and how she wanted to spend all her life with him, but the lessons her parents had taught her entered into her mind, and so she told him that she thought he was somewhat egotistical and arrogant, and at times overbearing, but that she loved him even with those qualities. Her lover did not hear the words after, the ones where she spoke of his kindness for those in need, or how he was so gentle when he delt with the foals in his herd and became enraged, focusing on the things that cut at his low self esteem and his his inadequacies. He struck out at her with his hooves and slung hideous insults and untruths at her, driving her from her home. Caryiln did not see that the fault lay with the stallion, as he heard only the negative and not the warm words of love she spoke to him. She vowed then that she would never enter into another matter where her heart would be at risk of being broken. She left her homelands with her head hung low in shame and sorrow.
Prompt and Response: Prompt 2
Passing through a set of woods that are rumored to be haunted, Caryiln hears a rustling in the bushes. When she tries to move away the noises follow behind and to either side. Is it those who haunt the woods or something else? What should she do?
There they were. Those noises. Again. She thought at first that the rustling that accompanied her walk was just the frolicking of animals along her way, but it was too measured, and stuck too close to her. Her heart began to beat faster, partially with fear and partially with excitement. Perhaps it was her lover coming after her, to tell her how sorry he was. She hoped desperately that it was him.
She stopped, turning around to look for any signs that might give away the one who was following her. There were supposedly spirits in these woods, but she was unafraid of them, if there were any. Spirits were only spirits, and they could not harm those of the living.
Caryiln started moving once again, smiling as she heard the rustling in the brush once more. Whoever it was following was going to get a surprise. She smiled to herself as she turned abruptly and delved into the brambles and briers. She came nose to nose with her stalkers, her mouth agape in shock. The noises were made by the two most adorable creatures she had ever seen. One was brown and the other was black, and though they stood bravely, their eyes betrayed how scared they were. She laughed, "Don't be afraid, Little Ones, no one is going to hurt you."
Foals. Her stalkers were two small, scraggly looking foals. She shook her head. "Where's your mother at?"
Confused eyes stared up at her, as one looked to the other and then back at their large red inquisitor.
"What about your father?"
Again she was met with confused stares.
Her heart suddenly went out to the small creatures. They must have been abandoned. Who would do such a thing? Caryiln shook her head and started herding the small bundles of legs and ears out into the open. "Let's get you something to eat, dear ones..."
