Duskfire Glacier we never go out of style

"lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones"

[size=small]With the small treasures of her earlier voyage by the forests that surrounded the Glacier hanging from her mouth and dangling idly like a cigarette, Maera continued to linger above the long forgotten entrance of the place she spend both the best and worst days of her youth at. She stood there, petrified like a gargoyle until the whisper of the summoned female reached her rust-tipped ears, making them swivel violently upon her crown as she turned too to face the talking bush.

Her eyes scanned immediately for the whiteness of the albino's lush coat but found instead, craddled between the green foliage, two spheres of sad red; her eyes. The beggining telltales of a smile began to creep upon her lips until she urgency with which the hidden female responded with kicked the sense that something was wrong inside the ignorant child's mind. Why was she hiding? There was no time for sillyness, she thought while parting her lips to voice her question -- of course before the quick and painful stab of Scarlett's following words reached her.

First came the shock of her announcement: she was ot going to be in the Vlub anymore...Alright, at least she'd had the decency of showing face and giving explanations unlike the former members that had faded like ghosts.
With her mouth clicking shut again, Maera could not deny her disappointment, and sadness, but neither could she hide the utter shock that her excuse, or reasoning for leaving was.
She had been exiled?
By her mother?
Her mother.. Tuwawi.. the sole family member she had left in the vastness of the universe that was the Glacier?
No.

It's lies!, a voice squeaked inside her head.
It could not be real. She could not believe that her mother; who had given her life and, despite leaving once, had given the princess nothing but love, could be capable of causing such pain. W-What do you mean...? she urged, her hazel eyes narrowing in confusion as she tried to make sense of why her mother, her sweet mother, would ever have a feud with Scarlett, her good friend Scarlett.[/SIZE]
