I've Suffered A Thousand Sins Over Hell Posted on June 11, 2012 at 02:50:22 AM by Maero
That was the first time Maero had ever grinned openly in years. But her sudden joy at Fayte's invitation at the water's edge and that quickly silenced her. What if another Stallion loomed by? Her onyx eyes were drawn to the trees again. Was there even a stallion around? The forest seemed very deserted, almost as if the mare she was speaking with was it's only inhabitant. Surely that couldn't be true....She mused, stepping into the water, but a good distance away from Fayte to give her room to enjoy her own wide space of water. The chill spring water rushed around her legs, making her shudder but she drank the clear liquid greedily once more.
How long would it be until she got to drink and eat like a Queen again though? How long until someone asked of her past and she couldn't answer? What if...Her heart once more shattered? Would there be pain? Of course there would be...Would there?
Maero's lips hovered over the water's surface in thought and looked into the water at her reflection. In her own right, she was beautiful. Beautiful like the blood of a maple tree, red amber, a rare gem. But what struck her as horror were her eyes. Inside those dull onyx eyes, the all knowing mind laid there, a thousand sins had been witnessed, a thousand pains and horrors. And a thousand more unknown also remained. How sad, was it that this mare was at her prime, and only to be shut out? Replies:
