Checkpoint: Alpha

The harpy wasn’t too far away from the call when she heard it – the vaguely familiar voice of the large girl named Otem. Khairi was in tune to the world around them as well, spotting the barn owl as it took toward the sky in search of anyone who would come. Of course, Kiada had decided awhile ago that where there were gatherings, it must be important – if not for Kisamoa’s strange appearances, for any information that might help save her hide if it came down to it. Yet, the woman began to move, Khairi following suit in the skies as he trilled his approach. As Kiada moved, the large “x” marking on her chest began to ooze more of a teal liquid, slowly beginning to seep down her leg as she walked. It made no use clearing it away if it returned, and so Kiada left it alone. If it was bad for first impressions, she was past the point of caring. Besides, the heat of Scorch was enough to make her not mind the dampness on her skin if any rogue wind came through. She had missed the first part of the conversation, only hearing a few voices pipe up. Otem was there, speaking to a gold and white pegasus the Harpy hadn’t met before, speaking of gods and herds and what not. Then, another creature’s voice came out of the fray. Another gold creature, speaking of herds not having gods in his own homeland. It reminded Kiada of the stories her mother had told her of the land she was born in, and had she not heard the tales she would have thought the same as Otem. Yet, she stayed silent as she moved toward the circle slowing gathering. Then, there was a dark blue blur – another creature somewhat familiar to Kiada joined the circle and asked what they were talking about. Kiada offered him a small smirk as if to say she remembered the rogue snowball aimed her way at the Tree of Light before turning her ears toward him to give him attention. “They’re explaining the possibility of having herds without a god to rule them.” She offered the stallion the information before turning her attention to Otem and the rest of the group. Khairi swooped from the skies to land upon her back, the sharp glint of metal spines protruding from her back were subtle but they glinted with the light as she approached and dipped her head. “Kiada, at your service.” The young woman then offered them all a roguish smirk before settling her eyes to Otem. “Its possible to manage a group if everyone can come to an agreement, though it can be difficult I imagine. However, I think a meeting place is a great start, rather than having a small amount of us five calling ourselves a herd.” She tossed out the idea, lifting her head and letting her icy blue gaze dance across those gathered. "Talk." Kiada she had a wild, wandering soul but when she loved, she loved with chaos and that made all the difference.

Kiada's feeling snarky today, I apologize. xD She addresses Otem and Waker mostly!
