38th of Spring 510 AV Water cascaded over smooth stones as a small stream made it's way to join one of the many tributaries that gave Riverfall it's name. Small yellow flowers poked out between stones and moss, and a cloaked figure stooped over the small plants. It seemed odd that whoever this cloak belonged to would keep it on on such a lovely day, but the form stuck to the shade, and did not remove the cloak throughout the warm day. Shiva liked this place; more than the others. It was home to a noble people, but also housed great beauty and places where she could seek solace. Now she read a small book of poetry her sisters had bequeathed her with on her departure from the White Isle, it's pages tattered and worn from the years she had carried it. The sun set and twin violet eyes glanced away from faded pages to watch it's passage, more out of habit than enjoyment of the beauty, calculating the progression of colors as the blood orange orb sank. |
