Hypenemious: full of wind
There was far more fearthan oracle would admit when Trico stood at the edge of the cliff, themountains and valleys of Tenebrae stretching out endless before the pair. Greatbeast shifts beneath her and Lunafreya holds her breath, fingers tighteningslightly in their fur. When she exhales Trico takes another step towards theedge. Rocks kick up under their feet and tumble into the mists below.
❝ I hope you know what you’re doing more than I do. ❞ Tricomight not understand her words but gives small chirrup in response to hervoice. Behind her she hears the unfolding of wings. Tensing of muscle readyingfor the leap and her own seem to coil in response. She brings herself lowenough to smell beast’s scent. Readjusts shaking hands for a better grip.
While they may not understand, the princess can almost hear the laughter when she shrieks. Theyplummet through the air until beast decides to beat wings against the air andthey lift. Her heart soars from where it had plummeted to her stomach when theyclear the mist blanketing the mountains. Sun kissing the tops of trees, ofclouds, Lunafreya’s cheeks. Shriek turns to bright laughter when shelooks down to see Fenestala Manor shrinking below them. How it spirals awaywith each push of Trico’s wings.
Her hair whips around her face, stings her skin untilTrico pulls their wings in close and they dropbut now oracle lets out a yell of delight as blonde locks fly behind her. Legs squeeze, hands knot in fur tohold on. Her stomach gets lost somewhere far behind them and ❛ I’m going to faint this is too fun this isterrifying this is— ❜
They sail through the sky, girl and guardian until the settingsun dips below green mountains.
