 A small stream was lazily swimming along before her, its clear waters allowing Lux to see the small creatures that traveled in the stream, and to see the rocks that littered the bottom of it. Dipping her head she took a sip of said water, and as the water filled her mouth, her body and wings rustled with something akin to a shiver. Its cool taste filled her mouth and she hummed with satisfaction. Lifting her head back up, her silver eyes roamed the clearing that held the stream.
Trees surrounded the clearing, almost like an easily passable fence, and beyond them she knew a meadow filled with a rainbow of flowers lay, perfect for frolicking. Lux was not a frolicking kind of mare, and so she found herself near the stream, and she felt her muscles relax. The sound of the stream as it traveled along calmed her and she continued to watch the small creatures that lived in it travel along. She ruffled her wings and saw that one of her feathers had decided to find its way into the stream. It slowly started moving and she tilted her head in thought. Where did this stream end? Was it maybe a lake or something similar to that?
Lux started to walk in the direction the water was taking, and she quickly decided that she would find out where this stream ended. And so, the adventure begins.

 Estelle continued taking gentle sips of the river, its cooling liquid trickled gently down her neck. She gazed at the magnificent colours with each sip; the blues and greens flowed in fantastic harmony as the swirled away to their eventually destination at the end of the river.
Raising her head she looked around, the breeze was faintly chilling and carried her mane and tail in the same direction at the river. She always loved the wind; it was the perfect reminder that nature was always present, just like the stars that twinkled in the sky at night. There was something comforting about their constant presence that made her feel life had meaning, as long as you saw past the bad situations you had been forced into along the way. Her past wasn’t exactly clean cut and something deep within her felt wrong, empty almost although she was unsure exactly what that was.
She glanced at the trickling river once more as its magnificent waters continued to flow no matter who was watching, slowly a feather flowed gently toward her, she contemplated it for a moment, the strands that made up the gentle feather was a curious colour that seemed a combination of black and white. Where did it come from? Glancing around again she wondered if the owner was close, there seemed to be very little movement although there was a resonance that sounded faintly like footsteps.
Smiling with a beaming curiosity she headed toward the footsteps wondering who the owner could of such a gentle sound could have been. With each step she wandered towards the sound the closer she got, until finally a faint figure appeared in her eye line. She called out towards them, "Hello?"

Lux turned her head in the direction in which the greeting came from and saw a shape of another horse coming towards her. “Hello.” She called back; ruffling her wings a bit to situate them more comfortable on her back, causing a few more feathers to fall into the flowing stream. It never hurt when the feathers came out, so she barely even noticed when they fell.
She continued her course, still set in the adventure of finding where the stream lead and ended which brought her closer to the other horse, which was in fact a mare if she could tell from the voice and how small it was. She was bright color, even from this distance she could see that, and as she got closer her eyes adjusted to find that her assumption was correct and it was in fact a mare that was a mellow yellow color.
“How are you on this nice day?” She asked as she was getting closer every second. Lux would start this conversation, but it might be the only one she would start. Being assertive wasn’t really her thing, but sometimes in order to meet others you had to try. So, she would see if she could get along with this mare, and perhaps friendship could develop.

Estelle smiled softly towards the oncoming stranger, her markings where pretty and the wings that hung gracefully by her side intrigued her gently, her mind fluttered to images of birds flying high above in the glowing world of the day. She watched as the mare continued to wander along the bumbling brooks banks, she seemed determined in finding something and she wondered what it was. Smiling she turned around, her tail swishing softly behind her. She was now the same direction as the other mare, the words that were spoken spun towards her.
Yawning softly she blinked, it wasn’t often that she experienced the wonders of the day, she was more of a nocturnal creature. Still smiling she spoke in a soft voice, "Sleepy, but mainly ok. Yourself?"
Taking a step to join the mare on her walk she continued to swoosh her tail with every step. "May I join you?"

“I am fine, just entertaining myself.” Lux flicked her ears and swished her tail before nodding a confirmation at the mares second question. “Yeah, you can come. I am just thinking about following this stream to where it ends.” To some that might seem boring or even remedial, but Lux found that the more that she thought of this adventure, the more ideas popped into her head.
What if she met yet another soquili? What if she found another stream? What if this stream never ended? What if there was treasure? So many things flitted through her mind, and it made her wings flutter in excitement. It was often times like that when she wished that flight was within her grasp, but walking would make this adventure all the more fun.
