Ethereal Eclipse.

It was place to hide. A place to run away and be forgotten. The tall trees shadowed her, covering her crown and placing the darkness over her shoulders like a bone chilling cloak. Night settled in the tall wood, but the thick branches hatched the bright cloudless sky, breaking every visible star as if they held not even the power of a candle’s flame. Flickering against the darkness, each broken light contained as much hope as her heavy heart held. A heart that was sick of it’s slowly bleeding death. But it beat with more resilience then she hoped. She hoped it would just stop.
A spring kissed wind passed through her short light hued coat, taking up the growing mane she wore and casting it across her face. Fingers attempted to subdue the lost stands as bright blue eyes looked mindlessly into the darkness. What lay beyond the forest was an obscurity, a question that she cared not to ask. But her body moved through it, as if it needed to know. Finger tips traced the harsh skin of the sentinel that stood among its brothers, guarding the landscape she traversed.
A dire need to continue, an instinctive pull drew her further and further into the mystery.
