The winter sky howled as icy winds swept over the plains. The grass shuddered and seemed to lean closer to the ground in order to avoid the winds.
Del Corazon had never heard or felt such cold winds. In his large size, h was able to hold his ground, but in his flutter size, he would've been swept away without a doubt.
The stallion rested amongst the tall grasses and snow in an attempt to weather the chilly winds. The cold blistered through his coat and ice was starting to form on his wings and mane. He peered through the landscape for any place that could shelter him from the winds. He had to move, otherwise he would freeze.

 Winter had set in, the winds blew, a chilling reminder of the season. Scythe had found himself too far from his teepee by the time night fell. He had found shelter in a cave to the South of his home. He had been out looking for what food poked out from the snow laden ground. He lay as far back in the cave as possible, his wings folded tightly into his body. He snorted to himself, the air escaping his nostrils steaming as it rose from his nose.

Del could see acave in the distance. It woul make for a decent shelter. The young stallion mustered up his strength and slowly walked to the cave, braving the winds. It felt as if his very breath was freezing.
He finally entered the cave, unaware of another stallion in the darkness. Del couldn't see too well in the darkness, but he trusted the great spirit and walked further in.
"Winter chill. It spills into the land like a overturned claypot. Water becomes ice and breath becomes cloud." he muttered to himself. Practicing his words was his preferred method of passing the time.
"I still have much to learn." he sighed.

Scythe's ears flicked and his eyes tried to focus through the darkness on the voice and sound of hooves on hardened ground.
"Who goes there?" He snorted and rose to his feet. He didn't want to be caught offguard if he happened to have a run in with a Kalona...or worse. "Speak up, now!" His ears at attention, his wings expanded just a bit to give the illusion that he was larger than he really was.

Del Corazon froze. He turned to lookbehind him to see where the voise came from, but could only see the blackness.
"Please grant me sanctuary. I have wandered here in hope of shelter from the storm. I am Del Corazon, son of Ayuni and desire and brother to Rosace. I can bearing no ill will towards those who do not harm me." Del Corazon lowered his head to show his humility. He could see strange looking wings in the darkness. Was this a soquili? He couldn't be sure.

The stranger's voice sounded sincere enough. Scythe wasn't -quite- ready to let his guard down yet though. He took a few steps forward into the semi-lit area at the front of the cave. He only took a few steps into the light, the majority of his body still hidden. His eyes looked over the stallion who had entered...Scythe's head tilted a bit, he had never seen wings such as his.
"If you bring no trouble, then I do not mind sharing shelter. All creatures deserve shelter from that chilling wind." His voice was deep but still pleasant. "Found yourself far from home as well this eve?" He wasn't too good at 'small talk' but he did his best.

Del tilted his head. He could see the stallion's general outline. Shades of blue glittered in the low lighting. Del stepped close enough to pick up the scent of the other stallion. It was an unfarmiliar scent.
"I am glad to hear that you are gracious. I am too far from home. I was blown far from my woods where I usually seek shelter. The plains out here are so barren. How could anything survive in them?"

(Is he in full size or flutter size now? O.o )
Scythe continued to survey the stallion, his wings were small for his body and the stallion himself seemed shorter in stature. He wasn't Kalona or Walker, which eased Scythe's mind.
"This winter has been a cold one indeed. I found myself too far from home at sun down. This cave has been good to block the chill, it's really not so bad further from the mouth of the cave." Scythe finally stepped completely out into the light to meet the stranger.
"The name's Scythe." He lowered his head for a moment then raise it again, " My home is to the North, through the passage. I'm taking up shelter here till the 'morrow."

(he's full grown)
Del Corazon's eyes went as large as saucers. He looked up and down at the strange looking soquili and admired the other stallions mane,tail, and wings.
"Your mane is stunning! It's longer than my father's! And your wings lookamazing too! I bet you can fly high enough to touch the sun! Oh! I'm Del Corazon, son to Ayuni and Desire and brother to Rosace. " said Del Corazon as he politely lowered his head.

Scythe lowered his head in return, "Del Corazon, it is a pleasure to have your company this night. I'm Scythe," he had no family to speak of, so he just left it at his name.
He smiled and extended one wing for a brief moment,"They actually don't fly well. They're quite heavy. I'm a glider." the mutations on his wings caused them to be too heavy for actual flight. He could take off if he needed to, but it wouldn't be quick enough to avoid attack or danger. Instead, he was use to just jumping from cliffs and gliding down. "And thank you for your compliments."
Scythe's head tilted as he looked at Del's own wings, "What of you? I've never seen wings such as yours?" He didn't mean to sound rude if he did, but he'd never met a flutter, he'd never seen wings without feathers or leathery kalona skin.
