[font=verdana As the seasons change..[/font]
I wander these lands alone these days. I'm merely just a shadow passing on this barren land. I fixed my golden eyes up into the bright sunny sky. A thin coat of sweat already covered my dark brown figure. I tried to remember the last time it rained; but no time came to mind. It didn't rain here or at least I though it didn't. The sun's rays beat down on to the dry, eroded ground and I had to find some shelter. My steps were heavy and I was beginning to have heat exhaustion but I kept up this dreaded pace. After what seemed to be hours I sighted the first greenery in hours.. Well it wasn't really green. It was more like a brownish gray. Dead. I snorted deeply. Hey at least it was something.
I walked tiredly into the forestry and my legs quivered. "This heat is gonna get the best of me." I muttered angrily. My ears perked up at the sound of water. A quite faint sound that is. I raised my muzzle to the sky and breathed in the air. It was water. I walked on and my delicate hooves crushed the dead twigs beneath them. My dark bay coat blended into the surrounding area beautifully and I was concealed from all eyes. At least that was what I thought. I followed the smell until my eyes revealed this water to me. I approached it quietly and lowered my neck. My nostrils smelt it and it seemed fine. I pushed my muzzle gently into the muddy water and drank. Not much because it tasted horrible. I shook off all the debris that had settled into my coat and returned back to my covering. I wonder if there were any others on this land... Hopefully not... Who would want to meet such a demon like me?
I remember how I use to be.
