Mairéad and Lyrica had been chatting excitedly together all day. Lyrica, after being found by Cadance and taken in by the flower family, had made fast friends with the adopted sister and basket mate. Though she was only older than Mairéad by a few days the two of them were almost inseparable. "So ya think we can get all the way to the beaches and see that boat that Auntie Malis was talking about? I think it would be so amazing to see such a vessel." She also wanted to add in her excitement at seeing the ocean, the salty water seemed to call her from within.
Mairéad giggled at the thought of a boat made of out a tree that floated in the water. "I doubt it would be that big... I mean how would they stick it all together. The birds can weave nests but they don't float for very long 'cause they are all hole-y." She snorted as she danced her way town the rocky path towards the direction that the sea was supposed to be. While she much preferred the cool shades of the forest, she had agreed to be dragged out to see her sister's dreams prove themselves to be true. If Lyrica said that a huge ship could sale on the ocean then who was she to say otherwise.

Zandali sighed slightly as she watched the tide come in. Soon she would have to start her lonely way home, something she was not looking forward to. While she enjoyed the company of her mother, it was usually accompanied with her grandmother who had nothing but evil glares and narrowed gazes for her. She didn't understand why Malis had such a revulsion against her, the only things she had gathered was that the troll was not to fond of the ocean. Zandali knew her father was of the ocean, her mother and he had met once at an estuary and ended up falling in love. She found out that this love had been forbidden by Malis and yet Tai'jin had stood up to her. But while her mother was a troll like Malis, Zandali had not picked up any resemblance to her mother, instead she looked like her father which seemed to make it worse. The young filly stood on the waters edge and wondered what it would be like to leave and follow the currents to new lands.

As they rounded the crest of the dunes, Lyrica paused at the sight of the wide ocean. "It's so big..." she gasped aloud as the shining blue stretched out before them. "I kinda guessed it would be large but not quite like this." She mused over the size before getting excited. "If the ocean is really this big maybe then the ship is even biggers!" She began to trot down faster before almost loosing her balance as the loose grains of sand provided a slippery passage.
Mairéad paused as her sister slid down the first part of the sand dunes. Her nimble feet had no trouble navigating the fractured ground but it was the apperance of the new player that caught her attention. "Hey Look Sis! It's another one of us!" She galloped on ahead and trotted gaily around the blue filly. "Heya! What's your name? We came to see the ocean, it's really pretty." The green foal danced with joy at the unexpected meeting. "Oh! This is Lyrica and my name is Mairéad... that's Mai-read" She nodded and then stopped dancing about to peer up at the upset expression. "Why do you look so sad?
