This was as bad as that thing Terra had seen in the woods. Well, not quite as bad. Terra was sure the skeleton was quite natural, and wasn't going to come to life on them. Walking over Terra sniffed at it curiously. It's some kind of animal I've never seen before. Terra leaned in, taking a deeper whiff. Tipping her head to the side she calculated how old it was. The skeleton's very old. Maybe the creature wandered up here away from it's herd and died. She couldn't see another explanation for it. Terra had never seen a creature like it during it's travels, and it appeared too weak to survive the harsh northern climate. Why, it hadn't even managed to survive here!
Shaking her head Terra looked down. It looks kinda like a luperci, doesn't it? Not having the same restrictions Skoll did, Terra knocked the head off, sending it rolling through the room. Entertained by it's movement, Terra bounded after it. Again she hit it, sending it rolling. For a few minutes she passed the time like this until it hit against the golden statue and shattered. Disappointed that her game had been put to an end Terra turned her attention to the large golden statue. It was very strange. Terra clambered up, pushing against the slippery metal. A few times her feet slipped from underneath, but she managed to reach the base.
Want to come up? Terra cocked her head invitingly to the puppy. Checking out the statue was much better than dwelling on the strange skeleton. Besides, now there was no way to tell what it was. The head was destroyed. It had reminded her a little of a ball. It was like a squirrel's head, or a raccoon's, rounded. It was put on the wrong side though. Age must have caused the head to shift so it laid like that.
