Name: Vyomesh
Meaning: Lord of the sky
Temper: Examining
Number of Soq: None
Prompt: You and your siblings have only been briefly told about your strange neighbors who don't want to be disturbed. But one day, you stumble across these very strange neighbors, so strange that they walk on two legs.
What do you do? Do you throw caution to the wind and get a closer look, or run away, or something else entirely.
Vyomesh tagged his sibling and darted away, the golden and ebony foal whined softly before darting away to the last of the three foals who had not been tagged whom in turn would run after Vyomesh. And thus was the game the foals played regularly, although usually under parental supervision, today the starry foal decided to take it a little further. When the other onyx and lilac foal came after him Vyomesh went straight for the woods, he had previously been curious about what lay behind the canopy of tree's and today was the day he was going to examine. Yes Sol had been very stern about wandering past the tree's and yes his mother Lucine could have a freak out if she found out, but it was all worth the risk!
And when the tree's finally gave away Vyo came face to face with the oddest thing, a person or thing on two legs. His siblings came crashing into him which sent him hitting the thing. The ebony and lilac foal saw, evaluated, and ran straight back into the forest. They'd be hearing from they're parents soon enough no thanks to the filly. Vyomesh back up, pushing the colt behind him as he went, his eyes locked on the thing. This 'thing' seemed to make a sounds, going from an “Oof” to a “Oh”. Vyo lifted his chin up directly and mustered his most powerful glare.
“ My name is Vyomesh, and this is my brother. Who are you?”
Although clearly the colts had landed on those 'things' properties, Vyo was being overly protective and did not trust this 'thing'. It blinked a few times as if it hadn't understood him and then proceeded to say something -he- couldn't understand, which then turned into a whole lot more confusing when a noise from the triangular skin like thing caught his ear and another two legger came out approaching them slowly. Vyomesh watched them carefully, he could bite and kick if they tried anything he held his mother's fighting spirit for his loved one's that was certain.
The other two legger dug into what looked like skin before taking out something white and orange, his brother poked his nose and went around Vyo to smell the orange thing. The 'thing' offered it to him and he took it, Vyomesh rolled his eyes, but eyed the white cube at the same time. He was then offered it, and as he eyed it cautiously Sol's golden colors were spotted and then his mothers blue and white who was huffing and puffing, his sister would certainly be at the back. The two legger though moved back quicker then anything, slowly of course, Lucine watched them carefully as Sol hoarded them away. Oh, he was going to be grounded for a very,very long time.

Name: ‘Alohi
Meaning: Shine
Temper: Gentle
Number of Soq: None
The hot afternoon sun made the ‘Alohi’s family feel tired and lazy. As they slumbered under trees the young colt grew bored. She tried to think of something fun to do, scanning the surroundings for anything that might interest her. Her gaze settled upon two strange-looking creatures in the distance. ‘Alohi drew a little closer, staring intently at the pair of strangers.
She saw that they walked on only two legs, as she had sometimes seen other Soquili do. These must be the neighbors that her mother had warned her about. Trying to mimic their behavior, she reared up on her hind legs, kicking the front two in the air. She was only able to stay like that for so long before she fell back to the earth with a thud. One of the two-legs pointed its front leg at her and they both began to walk up to her, their posture tentative and muscles tensed.
As they drew closer, their features became clearer and clearer. ‘Alohi saw that they had hair growing only in small patches on their heads. Instead of hair, they had odd things that looked like a cross between skin and hair covering their bodies. The lack of hair also left odd features sticking out- pink fleshy things that framed their mouths and hairless appendages on the sides of their faces. One had a mane growing out of the top of its head. When the pair stopped for a moment just a few yards away, it was this one that came even closer.
It stepped up to her, reaching its foreleg out. At the end of it was a thing almost like another animal’s paw, but with too many digits and no hair. ‘Alohi, sensing that this creature did not mean to harm her, stepped closer and sniffed the offered paw-thing. Before she could analyze the smell, it was drawn into a pocket in the two-leg’s covering and came back out again. This time, it held golden grains, the kind that grew in the fields. The colt nervously took a portion in her mouth. She whinnied with delight at the delicious flavor.
Behind her, ‘Alohi heard her mother stir, and quickly ran back to her family lest she wake up and see ‘Alohi with the neighbors. The two-legs followed her until they saw her parents. Then, they turned back and finally disappeared from view. As ‘Alohi settled down to sleep, she thought of the kind two-leg and vowed to meet it again.

Disclaimer: Complete Soquili newbie, no co-owned Soquili nor familiars. Name is unisex, and can be applied to both genders; however, for the sake of the prompt, the Soquili will be played as a female - either way, personality will not change if she ends up as a he.
Prompt response will shed light on personality of the foal, so sorry for the length. xD;;
Name: Brioso (Bri-oh-soh)
Temper: Daring
Prompt response:
"Brioso the Great is on her way to grand adventures. She shall face many challenges, but will overcome them to become even stronger than before!"
The young female whispered to herself as she trotted up a hill situated on a field near her home that her family frequents, head high in the air with self-pride. Yes! She is the one and only adventurer and heroine! Her father's vision of a bright future will come true, and every Soquili will recognize her... She can already hear their voices cheering for her, chanting her name at the top of their lungs whenever they see her face - 'Brioso! Brioso! Brioso!'
She is a heroine... Or rather, she will be one when she is all grown up.
"However, for now, Brioso is just a heroine-in-training... She is constantly on the lookout for troublemakers, determined to put an end to their crimes and thus make the land a safe place for Soquili to roam freely." The filly continued whispering to an imaginary audience, a fiercely determined look in her eyes. When she reached the peak of the hill, Brioso scouted the surroundings, ears twitching slightly as she looked out for someone to save; after all, that is the job of a heroine-in-training!
Sighing in slight disappointment at the lack of activity in her surroundings, Brioso made her way down the hill and back to 'ground level'. She was so sure that something exciting was going to happen today! Even her father encouraged her to seek her own bright future this morning, although her mother did look rather worried about her safety... However, she's a big girl now and can take perfectly good care of herself!
"Yes, she has family too... Kin whose lives are more important to the heroine-in-training than her own life!" Brioso exclaimed proudly as she grinned, tossing her head. "She will fight to protect their lives, even her siblings' lives! It does not matter how irritating they can get!" At this, she chuckled to herself, wondering where they could be.
Then, she froze.
There was someone else around! Judging from the scent, it was not another Soquili... Could this scent belong to the strange neighbors her parents warned her about? No... This is the sweet scent of adventure! The big break she needs to become a true heroine! If she survives this encounter, she will have accomplished something great; her siblings will be so envious!
Trying to be as quiet as she can, Brioso crept towards the 'scent of adventure', her heart racing as the smell became stronger with each step. She started trembling with excitement at the prospect of becoming a real heroine and fulfilling her destiny... As luck would have it, there was a tree where the smell almost stung her nose, and she quickly pressed her body against it, her head and neck being the only parts of her body not hidden from view. Turning her head to look at the source of the smell, Brioso almost cried out in fright.
Monsters! Two of them!
Her eyes widened and she couldn't help but stare at the two... Things in front of her. They not only had weird, loose second skins hanging off their hairless bodies, but they walked on two legs as well! She had never seen an animal that move using two legs other than birds, but at least birds are smaller than she is! These things are much larger than her!
For a moment, she could only gag at the peculiar sight in front of her. She narrowed her eyes, wondering what these two monsters must be planning; world domination? Are they going to hurt her family? This must be why her parents didn't want her 'disturbing' the neighbors - because the neighbors are dangerous! Maybe they normally eat foals for supper and full grown Soquili for breakfast, or hurt Soquili for entertainment!
She has to stop them from committing any evil deeds!
Suddenly, one of the two monsters turned around and spotted her, pointing at the partially hidden filly as it yelled something foreign to its partner. Startled, Brioso bolted backwards, screaming as the monsters ran towards her, arms in the air. Were they going to attack her and hold her captive? What if they decide to use her as bait to lure her family out? No! That will not happen; she will not put her kin in danger.
Giving a battle shout, Brioso started galloping in the direction of home, where she know that she will be safe from the attacking monsters.
"Brioso the Great, adventurer and heroine-in-training, thinks that it is time to head home to assure her mother that she is fine," The filly thought to herself as she fled from the monsters. She heard something behind her, but was too frightened to turn back to look; in fact, it only made her determined to get away faster than ever.
There will be another day to battle the forces of evil! For now, home is her only destination.

Name:Lilith Amaya
Name Meaning: Lilith - belonging to the night; Babylonian. Amaya - Night rain; Japanese
Number of Soquili: 0 no co-ownership either
Temper: Cautious
Lilith Amaya hid amongst the brush, watching the two legs with curiousty sparkling in her eyes. She’d been playing the bushes, practicing her leaping and prancing when the strange sounds the two legs made startled her. She didn’t move, watching silently, following the two legs’ movements.
One seemed to have been gathering berries in the local bushes, near where the filly knelt in waiting. The two leg was a pretty native maiden, her delicate hands skillfully working through the branches, collecting the berries and placing them in a strange looking hole.
Lil wrinkled her nose and decided it was safer to go home to mom and dad. She started to back out from the bush, only to get herself caught by a little branch. She neighed, wriggling to get free but to no avail.
The young filly looked up and gasped as the female two legged started to approach the youngster, reaching forward to help her free. Lil squirmed all the more before the set of steady, delicate but firm hands rested upon her back and moved the branch away. She bolted from the bush to try to get away before she heard the faint laughter from the two leg.
She halted and snorted, frowning at the girl before she stormed over and stomped her foot, neighing. The two still laughed softly before she withdrew some berries from the basket the hung from her waist. Lilith stopped and watched her carefully, weighing her options. The woman smiled softly, containing her laughter a bit as she reached her hand forth. “Would you like to try them? They’re great for eating…”
Lilith snorted and sniffed her hand and the berries, moving her head away, but eyeing from the corner of her eye. She watched the girl smiled and wait patiently. After what seemed like a long time, the filly brushed forward, nibbling at the berries in the hand. She neighed softly, delicately, before she finished and darted away for home.
((*hoping this is good* ._.; ))

He is the beast, and I am his prey....
Number of Soq owned: 0 owned 0 co-owned
Note: Im going with a default gender/name for my RP purposes :3
--------------------------------
'Your brother and sister are still sleeping, love' Lucine's gentle voice was as warm as the morning sun they basked in while she groomed her foal's hair. 'Why don't you go out and pick some nice flowers for me while you wait for them to get up?'
'But mom, they are always sleeping! Or doing something without me! Just because Im younger, they ignore me!' Cora whined a bit, though she couldn't help but to make a few soft noises at her mothers comforting grooming.
Lucine chuckled softly before nuzzling and nipping lightly at her daughters mane. 'Its not like that at all, they just have... different interests. So how about those flowers? When they wake up, Ill have a talk with them,' she reassured Cora.
Sighing faintly the small foal nodded and yawned before a bright smile spread across her face. 'Oh! There is this awesome new field a bit across the way that I found! Its got LOTS of flowers!.' she started to paw at the ground excitedly.
'Hm...you might want to stay away from that field, Cora,' Lucine made a face at her daughters words. 'We have some new neighbors and they kind of wanted to be left alone for the meantime. Why don't you go to your usual spot by the stream? I'm sure there are a lot of lovely flowers there. You always pick the best ones.' She nudged Cora's side a bit, pushing the foal away from her before she could protest.
Grunting lightly as she was pushed away she stumbled a few feet before sighing and shaking her head. Ugh... she was looking forward to going to that new spot! Hmm... maybe... just maybe...
Cora made her way down to the familiar stream she often hung around at, picking a few flowers along the way. Looking around, making sure no one was around, she started to follow the stream toward the field that she really wanted to go to. It wasn't too far of a walk, and she hummed lightly to herself as she trotted on her way. The field was so bright and colorful, way better than any other spot she had found and it was better than the stream!
When she drew closer she realized the grass was rather high, but that didn't bother her at all. Snuffling around for a bit to take in all of the new scents, she made a sharp noise as her head rammed into something hard. She blinked a few moments to clear her stunned vision, thinking she hit a tree before her ears pinned at the most high pitched whining and squealing she had ever heard. It was a noise she had never heard before and despite the throbbing pain on the top of her head she made her way closer to the noise to investigate what on earth that ungodly sound was. Making her way through the tall grass, her eyes widened upon the sight of the creature wailing. It was a tiny thing, smaller than herself that was for sure, it was rather hairless save for a massive tangled mop on what she supposed was its head, and it walked on its hind legs. The thing seemed to be in pain, and was crying out of distress, Cora's ears pinned more as she chewed on her lower lip a bit. Whatever this thing was, there had to be more of it around, and more than likely they were bigger and would be mean once they found their hurt little one. She moved to nuzzle the tiny thing, she had to try to soothe it before it attracted attention!
It took a few moments but after some soft snufflings and warm noises from Cora, the other creature seemed to calm. It's eyes were all watery and red as it sniffled and fell quiet before it busted out in a random giggle. It's soft chubby hands patted the sides of Cora's muzzle, it's voice still high pitched. 'Horsie!!!,' the little girl squealed in delight, though the words Cora wouldn't even understand. At least this little creature seemed happier now and Cora's tense body eased a bit. Laying down by the girl's side, Cora continued to get to know this creature. The sight and the scents of it, the girl fell to quietly humming and braiding Cora's hair, putting random strands of grass and flowers into it and the morning slowly slipped to afternoon.
A couple hours later, Lucine could be heard calling Cora's name, accompanied by another noise from the opposite direction. The little girl had fallen asleep by the foal's side and she was careful to get up and not to wake her. The footsteps of her mother drew closer, a soft smile on her face as she chuckled low. 'It seems you found one of our new neighbors...' Lucine's voice was as soft as always. Her head lifted a bit as she heard softer footsteps draw closer, the girls mother had come looking for her as well. Lucine nodded a bit in respect to the human, as she picked up her little girl and carried her away, she was still sleeping.
Blinking, Cora watched the two humans before looking back to Lucine who had started to walk away. She trotted up to her side, ears twitching a bit in thought. 'What are they?' she asked.
'They are humans, our new neighbors... it seems their little girl is quite fond of you,' Lucine looked down to her daughter, smiling still. 'It looks like you have the startings of a wonderful friendship...'

No. of soq owned: None.
This is Lolita Lily Chi on her shop mule biggrin Just a heads up.
Name of basket: Butterfly (male or female)
Temper: Serene
My child on four legs, why is it that you cry?
'They... they lost them'
Lost what?
'their legs, why have they been cursed with only two?'
They are not cursed. That is how they are...
'it is?'
Aye, my sweet child. It is.
It was not early morning when I had first seen them. Awkward and ugly.
Their bodies were hairless save for a bare few patches on their heads. They showed little caring emotions and valued little but their own horde.
Keeping my distance I observed them. They might have seen me and rushed for ropes, but i stealthily managed to avoid their second gaze.
They confuse me. I want to edge closer but i cannot risk the possible danger. My parents told me nothing about them, save for legends. Stories of soquili, and 'humans' who cared for our kind; and those who destroy.
Uncertain, I chose to leave the world behind, avoiding any and all contact, I cannot risk myself. I cannot.
------------------------------
Nightfall, when my mother shone the most. I wish she we here now, to guide me like she had done in the past. My father stood by us in the morning light and glittered in the blue sky like his symbol.
I miss them.
I'm afraid.
These, two legged demons, scare me.
They cannot be safe, two legs are dangerous to those with twice as many.
Save me.

Name: Skysong or Skye for short
Name Meaning: A name I pulled from a book
Number of Soquili: 0. I am a co-owner of Yuu Hakuto with Hot Lolli
Temper: Curious
(( For this purpose ... I chose to roleplay Skye as a female. I think the name can work for either gender though ))
---
It had been a long night. Skysong had slept restlessly all night and now she knew why. Her parents' warning flitted through her mind and she pawed at the ground in contemplation. 'What was wrong with the two-leggers? Why don't they want to be bothered?' If there was one thing Skye loved - it was a mystery. However she was always erring on the side of caution. For now she would wait and bide her time to unravel this new problem that occupied her thoughts.
A few hours later passed and with permission given from her mother, Skye ventured forth with her siblings to a nearby meadow to graze in peace. At first it seemed that nothing was amiss to the three young horses but as the afternoon wore on a faint smell began to grow ever more insistent to their noses. What was this strange odor and where was it coming from? Skye watched as both her siblings looked around the meadow in confusion. She could tell from their posturing that both were uneasy about the scent that wafted on the breeze. Skye was intrigued and she lifted her head into the air and inhaled deeply. Something must be burning. She nickered a goodbye before exiting the meadow. This might be her chance to investigate. She knew that her parents would come looking for everyone later and she'd probably be back at the meadow by then.
Following the scent of smoke as it grew stronger Skye was filled with a giddiness that she could not explain. She playfully neighed as she kicked out her back legs ... happy to be doing something besides grazing and sleeping. A bonus in her mind was that she was alone. Minutes seemed to pass by in no time and all of a sudden - there was an object casting a shadow on the ground before her. With shining eyes she took in the object as she paced carefully around it in a circle. The object was round at the base and seemed to grow narrower until it reached a point at the top in which sticks grew out of. Baffled as to why trees seemed to grow out of this 'thing' Skye turned her attention to the weird covering that encircled the 'trees.' Skye stretched her neck forward and began to nibble on the fabric trying to determine just what she was seeing.
It only took a few more seconds before a snort of disgust was heard and she spat out the fabric. 'That is the most nastiest thing I have ever tasted. What is it?' Skye glared at the fabric as if accusing it of looking mysterious and thus tempting to nibble on. She gave a soft nicker before turning around. She almost gave into the instinct to kick the fabric but held it back. If this was someone's home then they would be unhappy to see it destroyed. 'It's your lucky day "Mr. Fabric that doesn't taste right." If I had my way - you'd be a puddle on the ground.'
At this time she turned and caught another whiff of the same smell that had brought her here. A flicker of light caught her gaze and she neared the small depression in the ground. A pile of logs seemed to have been placed inside the circle and were coated black with soot. This was the source of the smell Skye decided and nosed the logs before pulling back quickly. The logs were still warm. A shiver went down her spine at this realization and her head jerked to gaze around the small camp. 'There's no one here- wait! What's that?'
Standing just beyond the fabric-covered tree was a two-legger just watching her. Something about the gaze of the two-legger made Skye feel uneasy and she nickered softly before slowly backing up. The two-legger saw this and raised his hand and spoke strange words that Skye could not understand. He lowered both his hands and held them with palms facing upwards. Slowly he took a step closer to Skye and repeated the motion. Skye was frozen - she couldn't move. 'What's happening to me? I don't want to be here anymore. Why can't I move?'
A shrill scream of absolute terror escaped from her muzzle as she tried to fight this strange paralysis. The two-legger was now less than two feet away and closing the distance fast. Just as he had placed his hand on her flank Skye felt a hard nudge to that exact spot.
---
She woke with a start to see her Sol, her father, peering down at her. Her siblings wore an odd expression as they stared at her. Skye ducked her head in embarrassment. Her mother, Lucine, cast a worried glance at her before Sol nuzzled his daughter to ease her racing heart. Skye knew that since it was still night questions would have to wait until morning. She stretched briefly before settling down and mulling over what she had seen in her sleep. Had it been just a dream or a nightmare - or perhaps a little of both?

Prompt You and your siblings have only been briefly told about your strange neighbors who don't want to be disturbed. But one day, you stumble across these very strange neighbors, so strange that they walk on two legs.
What do you do? Do you throw caution to the wind and get a closer look, or run away, or something else entirely.
Meaning: Noble Spear
Temper: Adventurous
Number of Soquili: None
“And he fought until his last breath left his body. He never gave in to the--” I let his words wash over me; the thirst of adventure filled every part of my body. My sister seeing my eyes gleam with excitement nodded her head, I raced off over the plains, with her following close behind. Around every rock and tree I was looking for adventure. The sea of green is my world, filled with heroes and mares in distress. I am Adair the Brave!
Worlds of my imagination pass by me, in each I am the hero. Lost in my worlds of adventure, I did not discover that I had crossed into the territory that my parents had warned us never to enter, until it was too late. Curiosity kicks in; silently I trot to get a better look at the neighbors. A fearful whinny came from behind me; with one glance I tell my sister to go back home, she shakes her head. If anything happened to me, she would be here.
I leave the grassy meadow to enter the area where the trees begin, covered in moss and undergrowth; I watch my step, careful not to become entangled in the green mess. Voices are on the other side, but in a language I cannot understand, it is a mixture of grunts that have no pattern to them except the rise and fall of the rumbles. Interested, I continue through the trees, only to stop at a sight I never thought I would see. Creatures with manes, but no hair on their body, who stood on two legs, were sitting around something that seemed familiar…it was a fire! My head cocks to the side as I stare at the burning wood, it was contained, the flames were not spreading to the trees around the two-leggers.
A twig snapped, causing the hairless horses to turn, they spotted me. Unsure of what to do, I stayed where I was, my eyes staring at the creatures. One reached into its pack, I stiffen. A green apple rests in the hoof of one of the two-leggers, except it wasn’t a hoof. The hairless creature held out the delicious sight, cautiously I walk forward. I watch the creature for any sudden movements; the smell of the bitter green apple filled my senses. My muzzle reaches forward to take the apple from the creature. The taste is delicious; the crunching of the apple is all that I hear.
“Adair! Time to come home!” my mother’s voice made my ears flick back, slowly I turn away from the confusing creatures, and run home, my day’s adventure ready to burst from my entire being.
“Mom! I have a story to tell you!” the sun cast a golden glow on the valley as it sunk behind the Blue Mountains. My adventurous heart wanting tomorrow to come sooner, so more mares could be rescued and new creatures discovered.

Name: Serix
Soquili owned: Co-owning Eviotil ver Spitfire with Skydragono(not sure if this counts against me or not with how the agreement is but noting it anyway.)
(playing as female, but can be male as well.)
She watched closely the village of these odd creatures, not knowing what in the world they were. It was as though...she knew what they were but not. Looking to her siblings she sighed as they kept ignoring what she was saying. Come on, They're just behind here. Don't you want to see them? She looked pleadingly at her sister and brother. They both shook their heads. She sighed again, knowing they were both the least adventurous foals anyone could find.
Looking back she saw an odd thing. All the other two-leggers were...well working, save for one who looked like a child, hanging about near a tree. Serix tilted her head. What is with that one? She watched the ragged looking two-legger with much interest as it walked away from one of the others, who seemed to be yelling at it. There was a greater distance between this one and the others, and the one who was yelling finally yelled something nasty then turned back to work. The strange two-legger wallked away and shrugged then disappeared into the woods.
Serix almost jumped with joy. This was her chance. To find out what these things were, to get close to a single one. They didn't seem dangerous...not as much as her parents had mentioned. Looking back at her siblings she scoffed and lightly made her way through the bush, it wasn't like her siblings would even notice she was gone. And even if they did, it wasn't like it would be that long, she was only investigating one.
Taking her time, she listened, moving carefully to locate where the two-legger had gone. She heard the snapping of twigs and headed in that direction. The creature she followed seemed to take a winding path...and finally as Serix peaked through the brush, she saw the strange creature sitting...and singing? Her head tilted, yes she was right, that was a tune. Sneaking closer she saw the creature holding the head of something. What is that? She wanted a closer look.
Glancing around she saw a bush she figured she could push through without disturbing the creature. However as the foal made her way into the bush she soon felt pricking pain through her body. It was a nasty thorny bush that caught her skin and her fur. She wiggled furiously trying to get out of it and only succeeded in tangling herself more. Whimpering she felt foolish, she'd only wanted a closer look, and now she was stuck. Serix struggled more, a sharp stabbing pain caused her to cry out loudly.
The creature, Rin, stirred from her song and looked around wildly, had she been followed? Staring into the woods she finally saw what had followed her. It was a horse...a very odd looking horse. Standing up almost immediately she scrambled towards the horse that was...Oh...tis tangled... She stared at it holding her doll's head close to her, feet bare and looking more like a wild animal than the one she was staring at.
Serix's head whirled...or tried to, but was so tangled in the bush that she couldn't do more than peer out of the corner of her eye at the creature. It was closer...She stayed stock still, not knowing what would happen next. Fear...that was what wracked her little body. She wanted to run, but was unable to do anything more than shake. This creature, what would it do?
Neh...stuck.... She dropped the head of her doll, a thing she treasured and pulled out a knife.
She shook harder, whatever the thing had pulled out was nasty looking...and...Is it going to kill me? She whimpered in terror.
Slowly, Rin moved her free hand to the little foal's nose, lightly petting it, reassuring. Neh, neh, neh, not hurting. Swears. She spoke slowly, in a calming tone, then set to work on the bush around the little foal. As much as she could she avoided the foal, only knicking her once or twice, and cutting a little of the foal's mane.
Serix nipped at the creature when it caught her flesh, then blinked...She was free. The creature had freed her. They couldn't be all that bad, right? Stepping out of the bush, she shooke the remains of leaves and things from her mane. Mother is not going to be happy. She thought as she moved to stand a little away from the creature who had freed her. It seemed to move...away. It sat down and spoke to her...something strange.
Bushes, they be mean, little 'un. She smiled, You get caught again, hope you're not alone. Rin laughed, she wasn't exactly all there, but she knew there was something special about the foal, She couldn't remember what though. Be well. Go home.
She blinked at the creature, then nosed the doll's head back to it. It was something treasured, or so she thought and as the creature smiled picking it up again, Serix pawed the ground and turned to walk away, back to where her siblings were still playing. Looking back once more the creature waved to her, and began singing that oddly tuned song again.
Leaving the clearing she grinned, then she ran back to where her siblings were, looking a little worse for wear, and announced loudly, HEY! Listen to what I just did!
