AURELIA
Otem's friendship with Aurelia was one of the strangest friendships (could they be considered friends after having only met for the second time now?) that had ever formed for the pegasus. It was random and unlikely, but somehow is just worked. Otem didn't get offended at Aurelia's harsh sassiness and Aurelia was able to keep her temper under wraps (for the most part). When they had first met, it got of on a slightly rocky start, but had quickly mended itself. The pegasus assumed their friendship worked because there was no real fight for power between them. It wasn't a pissing contest (and if it was, Aurelia was completely oblivious) to determine who was the better horse. They both just existed together; both of them could be themselves. Aurelia certainly hadn't filtered anything when they first met, but Otem had still stuck around until Aurelia literally ran away. When Aurelia, rather abruptly, tells Otem to just make a herd, the mare-filly (Aurelia's mental nickname for the teen) is surprised. Eventually, she comes to the conclusion that a herd needs a god. Aurelia eyes her skeptically and a sort of chuckle leaves her lips. "What?" she asked through a pearly-white smile. "You don't need a god to make a herd. Helovians constantly made groups and small herds that they later invaded the larger territories with." She could sort of see why Otem was confused, but it was such a huge leap to just assume every herd needs a god based on the fact that Helovia's main herds did have gods. The gods only came into play when territories and massive amounts of land were involved, not just horses. "I think a sort of alliance between some of us roamers would be rather helpful to the healing process of the Rift," she began calmly, prepared to explain her thoughts fully. "If we all put our heads together the land will be healed quicker." A quick nod was given as if the nod would further her point. It wasn't even just that, it was so. much. more. Horses are safer in herds. Horses feel at ease in herds. Horses are meant to be in herds. Perhaps not calling it a herd would make Otem more open to the idea, but a group, alliance, or anything of the sort was still, at its core, a herd. Not to mention the question that would surely be brought up by another horse- who would regulate and call for and arrange the meetings? Someone would have to be appointed. And what is an organized group of horses with a set meeting place and leader? A fucking herd. ooc; aurelia is passionate. lmfao. i was waiting for others to post but then i really wanted to so i went for it ;-; à la folie; to madness |
