AND THE BEAUTIFULLY TRAGIC
DRIFT THROUGH THIS NIGHT
ON A LAST QUEST FOR MAGIC
Presently Alanna walks beside Era, ignorant to how ironic life can be. What would their parents say, seeing them together? Would they somehow recognize the blood which courses through their veins? Is there some dragon-nightmare lurking within Era, or some bird-siren of Water and Air and Lightning crying in Alanna’s heart? Physically she is not like her parents; she is slight, delicate, but the pale cerulean of her eyes is an echo of her mother’s, and the Wind which encircles her has echoes of them both.
Dusan leaps in, and Alanna smiles at the sight of her brother. “Hi, Dusan,” she chirps.
She’s used to Dusan’s protectiveness – it’s only an indication of the bond that the two of them share, and she’s also used to others feeling somewhat alienated because of it.
Era asks Alanna if she knows who Dusan is, and Alanna laughs lightly, shaking some snowflakes out of her white mane. “Dusan’s my brother!” she says. Then, dutifully, she introduces them. “Dusan, this is my new friend, Era. Era, meet Dusan.
Mentally she’s already going through all of the things that the three of them can do. Alanna’s never had a filly friend her own age. She and Dusan make their own trouble, of course, but with a trio there’s bound to be even more fun to be had. She thinks of that time when Baraqel showed them how to slice cacti with their Air element. “Era, my brother Baraqel will like you,’ she says, “You’re Lightning, and so’s he. He likes to blow stuff up.” Speaking of the topic of brothers –
She turns to Dusan, eyes wide with a sudden memory. “Oh, Dusan! Guess what!? Kratos is going to have a baby!” …wait. She pauses, rephrases – “Er, I mean…Kratos’ girlfriend Courage is going to have Kratos’ baby.” she chuckles to herself.
Misquote of the day. Good thing Baraqel didn’t hear that one.
