Falls

Icy white whisps stuck to her neck as she stood at the edge of the waters. It lapped at her feet, darkening her color slightly due to the water that still clung to her hide. The foam from the water breaking clung to her hooves as she moved her way inland. She paused, not yet walking from the sand to the grasses. Lifting her face to the sky, letting the sun beat down on her face. The warmth surged through her bones, making her soul feel like it was flying, weightless.

She could hear the sea-birds cawing and squawking above her head, calling out to one another, divebombing the ocean for fish to eat. It was fascinating. A few had targeted her head as she had swam in, but she paid them no mind, not any longer. She shifted her gaze to the sand, watching a crab scurry out of her way as she stepped into the soft green grass that butted up against the banks of the shore.

The sun began to dry her hide, letting the soft tones of her color pop under the bright spring sunshine. To my right, was a stream that headed inland, to where, she had no idea. She would explore it later, delving into the secrets that the island held, knowing that was something she’d enjoy doing.

Secrets. They always made people antsy, they’d look over their shoulders, second guessing themselves. Kambree? Not so much. Her secrets were locked within the back of her mind, locked up with several keys to never be let out, no matter what that meant for her sanity.

Here she stood, the long grasses brushing against her legs, swaying in the soft spring breeze. Gray eyes closed as she just drank in all the smells and sounds that swirled around her in a haze. When she opened them, it was to take a few strides further into the land, before she dropped her head, grasping her first bite of sweet grass, enjoying her newly found freedom. Where this life would take her, Kambree knew nothing of that, but the ride, she’d enjoy that more than anything.
