out of the frying pan

so i listen to the    wind for an answer

She tumbles through Portal, though she doesn’t notice the trip. It’s all she can do to keep Ru and Glasgow’s deaths from replaying over and over in her mind. Not even deaths, really, simply destruction. One minute they were there, and then they were gone, consumed by Kaos and his teal light. Teal. The color that she wears haunts her, the constant color of her downfall each time. First in Morham, now in Helovia. Yet it is her color still. She can’t think about it or about how many others might have died. She has no idea. She lost track before she went into the portal, and certainly more died after she’d left.

The Portal spits her out unceremoniously into some new forest, and she almost lands in a heap on the ground. At the last minute, self-preservation kicks in and she spreads her wings, tugging the winds around her so she can land a little more gracefully, though only a little. She manages to land on her feet, but she stumbles, nearly going down again. Not her most graceful landing, but she can’t find it in herself to care.

Her teal eyes start searching, and she moves through the horses that now crowd this dark and miserable forest. Another trend in her life, forests. She always seems to start in forests and end with teal. How many more times would her life go like that? Could this be the last time? Though hell, this doesn’t look like any place they could call home. Eyes peer out of the trees around her, and for the first time, the trees appear reach out with talons instead of with friendly fingers.

A familiar sound, a laugh so out of place here, catches her attention. She turns her gaze in that direction and the horses are familiar, though not immediately so. Lyanna knows that laugh though, and the filly with them is Zoeya. She makes her way over, looking a little incredulous as her gaze turns to the mare that is Alysanne but not really Alysanne. “Aly?”, and then to the filly that looks a whole hell of a lot like Iona, “Iona?” She laughs slightly, shaking her head. “We don’t match nearly as much anymore.”

She doesn’t know the young mare, though she turns her attention to Zoeya and Naerys with a pleasant nod at least, still full of manners even in the middle of a crisis. Her attention turns back to Iona and Alysanne, though her gaze keeps flickering away, looking for anyone else, entirely uncertain where to begin. Some of her friends had made it though, so certainly others had as well. She finds herself relaxing at the thought, hoping that the rest of this place wasn’t quite a petrifying as the Portal.
