"Great idea. Going to Anok would be the best thing that could ever happen, at least in my opinion." He replied, wilting a little as Mordré walked right passed his stall, lead rope in hand attached to Asha.
He needed to get out of here.
Alko bucked at his stall door, aching to spread his wings and fly away, galloping to freedom.
"How about... next time our ... 'riders' (his disgust at the very word was obvious, like lemon on his tongue) take us out... we buck them off while they're on the ground and fly, as far and fast as we can go?"
As soon as the sentence left his muzzle, he realised how stupid it was. The Flyers would be on them within a second of their attempted escape.
"Nevermind," he sighed, wondering if Frei thought he was as stupid as he thought. She was, seemingly, the only other pegasus (he refused to brand himself or her as "kihlari") that wanted out of this captivity.
"Hmm... how about at night, when everyone's asleep, we buck our stall doors and make a fly for it?"
He sighed again, shaking his short mane and pawing the ground in annoyance. He was more or less scheming to himself now, regardless of whether Frei or any other kihlari was listening in or not.
"You have any ideas, Frei?"
Then he realised the price he would have to pay if he were to leave:
Asha adored Mordré. Asha didn't know what living free was, and as far as Alko knew his sister, she had no intention of finding out.
Alko stood still, wilting a little more, as he slowly folded his wings and dropped his head, ears drooping.
If he were to escape... Alko would never see his sister again.
She saw how Riptide trusted the young 2-legged and was surprised. How could she like it here? It was utter captivity. No freedom, barely any flying, just simply box. Thats all there was. Even the land horses had a better life. They were out in a paddok, running around. She was in this stupid box she wanted to murder. "Alko. I think Riptide or Valkyre or, whatever her name is, is better of here." She said looking at Riptide and wrinkling her nose. "Plus I don't want out there." She said pionting towards the barn door. "If im escaping, I am going to Anok."
Sage went to grab a cloth, she walked to the stream to soak the cloth, she walked to her saddle bag and got some herbs that helped numb and heal injures, she mashed it up and rubbed it onto the wet cloth.
"Okay girl, I'm coming in there," Sage walked into the stall and closed it behind her. "This is going to hurt for a bit but it will help with the pain," Sage said, she nelt down and gently set the cloth on her injured hoof.
Sage went to the other side of the stall and grabbed a brush, she sat down next to Valkyrie, and did long soothing strokes with the brush,l.
She made it to the stables and saw the stallion named Alk, fly. She wanted to fly and get off her hoof. She went to her stall and lay down trying to make it stop hurting
He sighed, lidding his eyes, lowering his head and flicking an ear. He leant over and sipped at his water. He repeatedly picked up and placed his hooves back down again, antsy. He had to get out of this stupid box.
Finally, he saw Firgo's sister, Mordré, enter the barn. He nosed her as she walked by. She was the only Landwalker he liked, purely because his sister trusted her.
Mordré:
She walked in to the stables, wary. Her eyes scanned the barn, looking for her brother. Knowing him, he had probably set Alko off again.
She sighed, shaking her head.
Mordré had to pass Alko's stall in order to get to Asharnai's, but she didn't mind. Also, despite being a wild spirit around Firgo and, well basically any other Landwalker apart from Arki, was quite tame around herself. Mordré often wondered if this was because Asha loved her.
As she passed his stall, he nosed her and she laughed, stroking his muzzle. "Hey boy," she whispered. "Want to join me and Asha for a fly?"
He whinnied excitedly and flared his emerald wings open.
"Atta boy. I'll ask a stablehand if they want to join us."
She left Alko and walked over to her mount, Asha's, stall. Asha greeted her with affection nuzzles.
"Let's go, girl," Mordré urged as she took the tack off from the wall.
She pulled away from Sage. She wanted help not for her to hurt her. "Help!" She squealed as she tried to walk. She wanted to scream and fly away. She tried no to put weight on her hoof and it helped, some
Sage turned back when she heard a thud, the gasped when she saw the look of pain on Valkyrie's face.
Sage ran over to her, and quickly found what was wrong,
'Good thing I always have herbs with me' sage thought. Sage reached into her pocket and took out several types of herbs. She took several of the same type of herb and mashed it up,
"I'm sorry girl, but this is going to hurt some," Sage said as she softly spread the mash onto Valkyrie's hoof,
"That should help with pain" Sage said,
"These will also help" Sage said putting out a hand with herbs, Valkyrie quickly ate them.
"Okay, now time to temporally splint your hoof," Sage said as she quickly grabbed to sticks of about the same size, and put it against Valkyrie's hoof and tied some rope around it.
"There, that should be good untill we get back," Sage said as she gently helped Valkyrie up, Sage grabbed the lead rope, and they slowly started walking back to the stables
She ran toward Sage, but she tripped and landed with a crack on her front right hoof. She gasped in pain and tried to chase Sage but she collapsed in pain
Sage landed with a big splash in giggles, "I know you cant understand me Valkyrie, but this is really fun!" Sage said, she got up still in giggles, and stroked Valkyrie's neck.
She hopped back on Valkyrie and gave her a big hug, "When your flight feathers heal I will help you get back to your herd," Sage whispered
"Easy braya, you can go back to your family when you can fly again I will let you go. Stay till then." She petted her and said, "If you stay calm you can be in an out door pen instead of a stall."
Riptide:
She jumped a log and splashed trough the creek, letting Sage get wet. If she could live like this for ever she would. Her herd did not need her. She stopped sudenly and sent Sage splashing trough the water. "Opps." She thought.
Her nostrils were wide as she tossed her head and pranced away from the human who tried to tie her. She half jumped, half reared in the direction of the jungle, slamming her head in that direction and pulling the oddly dressed high class girl forward. She refused to move and she brayed out to the jungle; “Mother! Father! Mountainvoid, I’m here!”
'She must not trust other humans yet' Sage thought. Ssge laughed as the wind hit her face, she didn't care where the wildling took her, as long as she felt free.
Jerked her head up and saw 2 more landwalkers. making sure Sage was on her she bolted darting away from them.
Riviare:
"Sorry Sage." SHe walked into the barn and grabbed the new wildling as she tried to run off. Tied her, and got Jett. "Pele tack up Jett I have the wildling he will help you
She twisted her ears at the sound of Landwalkers, and was finally fed up. Fed up with tamed life when no one would ride her, let alone love. So, she did the only thing she could think of.
She bucked the door.
It took a few tries, but she finally got it open. Stablehands came running, but she just bolted out at top speed, nearly killing a small boy. She dashed around the three girls and the wildling outside, her heart racing as she galloped towards her home, her feathers still not grown yet.
Yes! Just a little more, and I’m home-free! She thought with a glorious look on her face.
She lead them down the halls to the kitchen, "Lets snag some rolls and butter." She grabbed the butter and let Pele take the rolls. "We can eat on the way to the stables." She set off and made sure Pele was following her. They reached the stables and she saw Sage riding the wildling. "Hey Sage!" She said happily.
"Soon. Lets steal some food from the kitchen!" She changed into the boys pants and shirt she saved for riding. She put boots on her feet and gave Pele a pair. "Here take these and find pants and a shirt in y closet
Day after day, night after night, she listened to the conversations between the tamed khilari. She even caught a few names; Alkomaru, Frei, and Calor. She made no effort to talk with them, and just stayed there with no human, and fighting against her eternal boredom.
Pele stretches out, enjoying sleeping k. a bed. She sees a tiara and almost grabs it, before deciding that it isn’t worth it. being friends with Riviare ia more valuable than Riviares tiara
Sage slid off of Valkyrie, and sat down by her head, she turned to look at her and noticed the tears streaming down her face,
"I'm so sorry you have to live with clipped wings, I really would let you free if I could," Sage whispered. She reached out her hand and gently stroked the side of Valkyrie's face
Tears streamed down her face, she hated being grounded. She trotted to a clump of grass and started eating. she was thirsty but she would have to make do
She positioned her wings like she was flying and started running. Then she slowed down and let Sage mount her and she started trotting then cantering and galloping. The wind in her mane. She saw a member if her old herd pass over her and she looked at the sky. Her wings taught. She leapt but landed and stopped moving
"Woah, easy girl," Sage said, as she slid off of Valkyrie, and walked to where she could see her,
"I know you don't like this, but you need to know that other riders that try to train the wildling's use whips and they are a bit more harsh," Sage said,
She took the lead role and lead Valkyrie around some more starting at a walk then going to a run.
The landwalker was on top of her. She bucked gently trying to understand. She ran in a circle and darted back and forth. She whinnied, "I DONT LIKE THIS!" Loudly trying to make her listen.
Sage hearing Fost, immediately got up, walked out of Valkyrie's stall and went to get some tack and a halter, she went into Valkyrie's stall with the halter,
"Okay girl, I need to train you, so I meet to put this on you okay?" Sage said.
Sage gently put the halter on her and tightened it, then lead her out of her stall into a field outside.
He entered the barn and saw Sage in the stall with the wildling. "Sage wake up and train her today! She needs to walk trot canter and gallop by tomorrow or I will train her!" then he left
Riviare:"Look at her flight feathers, they are cut. She was wild and then they caught her and cut her feathers." She saw Sage and said, "Hi Sage. I named the wildling. Her name is Valkyrie."
Fost:"Princess what are you doing with that Thief?!" He asked loudly.
Sage cried for a few hours, but when she could not fall asleep she slipped out of the hut unnoticed. Then she started running to the stables in hopes of falling asleep there.
Once Sage got to the stables she found the secret latch and walked inside.
Sage walked to Arashi's stall and unlatched it, "com'on girl, I'm going to let you free to see your herd for a while." Sage said as she walked over to the wall, she unlocked it and the door swung open.
Arashi nikkered happy and walked out side, Arashi spread her wings and took to the air.
Sage smiled as she locked the latch. She walked over to the wildling's stall and went inside. "Hey, girl. I might fall asleep in here, but I trust you." Sage said
She walked over to a corner curled up and cried herself to sleep.
"Yes me too. Lets go to the barn, Pele. Mother may we go?"Shomani laughed. "Yes dear, be in bed by 10, ok?"
"Yes mother," She grabbed Pele and rushed out side. "The guards are off no on should be there but us. I want to see the wildlings."
She shoved the door open to the empty barn. She ran to Jett's stall and gave him water and hay. "There boy."
She walked up to the mare and tried to pet her but she shied away. "Fine I will call you Valkyrie, she was a female warrior like you." "What do you think Pele?"
Alko grinned at the commotion Frei was making. He liked that he wasn't alone; that there were others like him, who wanted to be free.
"Lay off 'er, Calor," he brayed, flaring his wings, glaring at the small space between the stall door and the ceiling. He narrowed his eyes, frustrated. However stupid his rider may be, the Landwalkers who built this place certianly weren't. The space was much too small for even a barely grown mare to fly through. He longed more than anything to be free.
"Frei," he asked, "do you have an answer yet? To my question?" he lowered his voice so only the mare could hear, re-folding his wings and flicking an ear. He stomped on his dry hay with his front hoof, leaning over to sip some of his water.
After a wild ride a shaken Arki led Frei back to her stall. But the large mare wouldn't have it. Multiple stable hands had to wrestle her into the stall as she bucked and kicked. She ended up sending a few landwalkers to the clan nurse and broke Calors door. Once she was in, she bucked and kicked. No container could hold her in.
Calor:
"Great. Now you've broken my door. What's next my neck?" he joked.
As Sage walked into their hut the first thing she saw was her sister furiously organizing things around the hut,
"What's wrong?" Sage asked,
"What's wrong! What's wrong is that Lightning helped a wild kilahari escape!
She just grapped the whip and through it and somehow her hooves were able to slice through the halter! You know how hard it is to find wild kilahari around here!" Kettie fumed.
"Okay, well I'll just tell you what happend to me today, we found a wild kilahari, and I took her back to the stables. She looked and acted like she wasn't feeling well, so I gave her herbs and roots to help her."
"Why do you have to be like mom! Your not a vet! You dont have any knowledge of herbs!"
"Uhhh, EXCUSE ME, but WHO was the one that stayed at the clinic with mom to help her out! I was, while you were off gallivanting around with dad!" Ssge shouted, Sage ran to their room barely hearing her sister call out to her.
Once she got to her room she collapsed onto her cot in sobs.
”Whaaaat? Noooo!” Pele says completely unconvincingly (by the way,please go on YT, look up sultan sketches weird things I do. Then please tell me how to make a gif)
Sage noticed when the young mare feel asleep, she put the brush away, and grabbed two pails, she quickly filled one with grass and the other with fresh stream water, she hurried back to the stable to set them in the wildling's stall,
"Bye girls!" She called, and headed back to her hut
She jerked her head up, she had been thinking about the wildling. "I ran into her today. And she told me how many people are starving so I am going to help them and I gave her a job." Responding to Eara.
Riptide:
Riptide sighed when her coat was brushed it felt good and she fell asleep
"Huh?" She looked down at her hand which had a brush in it, "I must of fallen asleep grooming Arishi," Sage muttered, she looked at the wild kilahari that was kicking the door,
Sage walked out of Arashi's stall and went into the Kilahari's stall,
"What's wrong girl," Sage asked, gently petting her neck, she gently patted her head but pulled her and away when the wildling jerked her head,
"I'll be right back, okay girl," Sage grabbed the empty pail on the floor and headed out of the wildling's stall,
Sage walked to a small creek that was nearby and filled the pail with it.
Sage walked back to the stable, and she stopped for a second to grab some roots and herbs, she mashed the herbs into a paste then walked into the wildling's stall.
"Here you go girl," sage said setting down the pail of fresh stream water ,
Sage gently rubbed the paste onto the wildling's head and spoke soothing words.
Sage grabbed the roots and set them onto the ground, "those will also help with the pain," she whispered.
Sage walked to the other side of the stall and picked up a brush and walked over to the mare,
"I'm just going to brush your coat okay girl?" Sage gently set the brush onto her coat and did slow calming streaks, as she brushed the mares coat she hummed a song that her mother used to sing to her before she feel asleep.
She ate then she slept for hours. When she woke she kicked her stall door again. Her head hurt and her throat was dry. "Landwalker..... Landwalker.... Help!" hoping the nice landwalker would come back and help her
( I'm confused. Are. Or are there not. Wild Kihlari. Cause if there were, would steeds like Frei just escape. Also, the Sandwens would've hunted them all down and domesticated them. Right. The only reason Frei hasn't escaped is because she doen't want to be a lone pagasus. But then again, it is just my opinion. I just think it would make better sense if there weren't any wild steeds.)
Sage breathed a sigh of relief, when the kilhari made no signs of attack, her mother was a vet before she died, she felt the legs then the chest, the back
"You dont seem to have any physical injuries or broken bones," she went to the Kilahari's face, she checked the eyes, nostrils and mouth,
"You must have a cold, your eyes are a bit hazy, your nostrils are a bit stuffy and your mouth is a bit red, I got a few herbs for that, I'll be back in a second."
Sage quickly left the stall and came back with a few herbs.
Sage walked back into the stall and gave the kilhari a few to eat.
Sage smiled when she ate them off of her hand. Sage grabbed her other herbs and mashed them with her hands.
"This will help with your congestion," Sage said spreading the mush on the kilhari's chest.
"I'll be in the next stall over if you need me," sage said petting the mare, she quickly slipped out of the stall and locked it behind her and went back to Arashi's stall to groom her more.
Sage looked over to the new mare who was squilling and kicking, she left Arashi's stall and went over to the wildling's stall,
"Ok girl, I'm going in there, I just want to see if your hurt" she unlatched the stall and quickly went in and shut it be hind her, she walked slowly up to the mare hoping she would not kick.
"No but we have to get to the table NOW! Or we are in trouble." They rushed down the halls to the dinning hall. "Follow me and sit nicely." She entered the room and sat down.
"Yes I know. I dress up like that so I can give out bread and money on the streat. That is what I do. I dont look down my nose t them all. You have one more chance. Dont blow it."
She saw her chance when she noticed the foolish mare from her herd called Mahoganysand dart into the barn.
All the Sandwen's and Riders were distracted by this, so she turned tail and ran. She grunted at her useless wings. They dragged behind her and only made her slower.
Oluja frowned, but darted behind a large tree and hid so no one saw her.
Sage finished up filling up both the pails with sweet grass, and headed back to the stables, she entered the stables and lowered a pail into the Kilahari's stall "There you go, some more fresh grass for you, and also for you Arashi," she walked into Arashi's stall and set the pail down.
Sage grabbed a brush and started brushing down Arashi's coat.
Mahoganysand stood respectfully, only flinching once when he clipped her wings. She followed him as he lead her with a neck rope to a stall. She stood respectfully and sighed, so happy to be in the barn.
It wasn’t what she thought it would be.
She had no rider, and all she did was either stay in that stall all day or was turned out into the paddocks. She began to long for the freedom she once had, missing her parents and her friends back in the jungle.
"You are banished from this fort!" Keeping her voice low. "I trusted you wanted you to change but this is what you do! You are banished to the out skirts if you come back than you better have changed and if you have not you will go the dungion unless I invite you back. DO you hear me!"
Sage walked over to a wild kilahari, she noticed the hole in the stall and sighed,
"I know how you feel girl, I wish we didn't have to cut your flight feathers it's awfull not to soar through the sky the wind hitting your face" Sage said she glanced at the ground noticing the tipped over water bucket and the hay that was everywhere,
"I think you'd rather have fresh stream water and fresh grass huh? Lucky for you I got some grass, it's not fresh but better than hay," Sage reached into her pocket and took out a handful of nice sweet grass, Sage set it down on the top of the stable door,
"And some for you to Arashi," Sage said holding out the fresh grass on her flat and, Arashi ate it quickly and then nuzzled Ssge for more
She knew she was too trusting. She wanted to trust Pele and she had been lied to again. She followed her for 10 minutes befor grabbing her arms and and tying her up
The mare took off into the sky, naive and stupid as she spotted the perfect barn next to a large filed. She dived down, hearing all of the grooms and riders inside. This was where they had taken Riptide.
She landed loudly, making sure the Landwalkers could hear her, and just stood there with her ears swiveling.
(You can go to part 2)
(I will)
(should I make another Sandween rp post? since this ones quite long? or should I wait until we have 12 or any other number of pages?)
Alkomaru:
"Great idea. Going to Anok would be the best thing that could ever happen, at least in my opinion." He replied, wilting a little as Mordré walked right passed his stall, lead rope in hand attached to Asha.
He needed to get out of here.
Alko bucked at his stall door, aching to spread his wings and fly away, galloping to freedom.
"How about... next time our ... 'riders' (his disgust at the very word was obvious, like lemon on his tongue) take us out... we buck them off while they're on the ground and fly, as far and fast as we can go?"

Then he realised the price he would have to pay if he were to leave:

"It's okay girl, if we go back to the stables I have some better herbs to help your hoof," she whispered

She pulled away from Sage. She wanted help not for her to hurt her. "Help!" She squealed as she tried to walk. She wanted to scream and fly away. She tried no to put weight on her hoof and it helped, some

"There, that should be good untill we get back," Sage said as she gently helped Valkyrie up, Sage grabbed the lead rope, and they slowly started walking back to the stables
Riptide:
She ran toward Sage, but she tripped and landed with a crack on her front right hoof. She gasped in pain and tried to chase Sage but she collapsed in pain
Sage,
Sage laughed, and chased Valkyrie, she caught up to her and taped her side "Tag!" She called and ran off playfully waiting for Valkyrie to chase her
Riptide:
She sidestepped and dumped Sage again and then she bounced around dragging her lead rope to make Sage chase her
Sage,
Sage landed with a big splash in giggles, "I know you cant understand me Valkyrie, but this is really fun!" Sage said, she got up still in giggles, and stroked Valkyrie's neck.
She hopped back on Valkyrie and gave her a big hug, "When your flight feathers heal I will help you get back to your herd," Sage whispered
Riviare:
"Easy braya, you can go back to your family when you can fly again I will let you go. Stay till then." She petted her and said, "If you stay calm you can be in an out door pen instead of a stall."
Riptide:
She jumped a log and splashed trough the creek, letting Sage get wet. If she could live like this for ever she would. Her herd did not need her. She stopped sudenly and sent Sage splashing trough the water. "Opps." She thought.
Sage,
She laughed as Valkyrie speed up, Sage loved that feeling of freedom as much as the wild kilhari.
Mahoganysand:
Her nostrils were wide as she tossed her head and pranced away from the human who tried to tie her. She half jumped, half reared in the direction of the jungle, slamming her head in that direction and pulling the oddly dressed high class girl forward. She refused to move and she brayed out to the jungle; “Mother! Father! Mountainvoid, I’m here!”
Riptide:
She made sure her landwalker felt safe before going as fast as she could. She loved Sage and wanted to stay with her until her wings healed.
Sage,
"Woah," she called as the mare bolted,
'She must not trust other humans yet' Sage thought. Ssge laughed as the wind hit her face, she didn't care where the wildling took her, as long as she felt free.
Riptide:
Jerked her head up and saw 2 more landwalkers. making sure Sage was on her she bolted darting away from them.
Riviare:
"Sorry Sage." SHe walked into the barn and grabbed the new wildling as she tried to run off. Tied her, and got Jett. "Pele tack up Jett I have the wildling he will help you
Mahoganysand:
She twisted her ears at the sound of Landwalkers, and was finally fed up. Fed up with tamed life when no one would ride her, let alone love. So, she did the only thing she could think of.
She bucked the door.
It took a few tries, but she finally got it open. Stablehands came running, but she just bolted out at top speed, nearly killing a small boy. She dashed around the three girls and the wildling outside, her heart racing as she galloped towards her home, her feathers still not grown yet.
Yes! Just a little more, and I’m home-free! She thought with a glorious look on her face.
Sage
"Hi Princess!" Sage replied with a smile.
Riviare:
She lead them down the halls to the kitchen, "Lets snag some rolls and butter." She grabbed the butter and let Pele take the rolls. "We can eat on the way to the stables." She set off and made sure Pele was following her. They reached the stables and she saw Sage riding the wildling. "Hey Sage!" She said happily.
Sage,
Sage smiled as the mare let her hug her,
Pele
”okay!” Yes! Theivery approved by the princess
Riviare:
"Soon. Lets steal some food from the kitchen!" She changed into the boys pants and shirt she saved for riding. She put boots on her feet and gave Pele a pair. "Here take these and find pants and a shirt in y closet
Mahoganysand:
Day after day, night after night, she listened to the conversations between the tamed khilari. She even caught a few names; Alkomaru, Frei, and Calor. She made no effort to talk with them, and just stayed there with no human, and fighting against her eternal boredom.
Pele
”Oh, good morning! When do the riding lessons start?”
Riviare:
She woke up and saw Pele almost take her tiara but she stops herself and Riviare smiled. Pele was learning.
Riptide:
She loved Sage's arms around her so she stayed still and let her hug her.
Pele
Pele stretches out, enjoying sleeping k. a bed. She sees a tiara and almost grabs it, before deciding that it isn’t worth it. being friends with Riviare ia more valuable than Riviares tiara
Sage,
Sage smiled and climbed back onto Valkyrie, and leaned over to hug her neck.
Riptide:
She lean against the Landwalker, they called her Sage. She trusted her and wanted to help her. She bowed to let Sage back on to her.
Sage,
Sage slid off of Valkyrie, and sat down by her head, she turned to look at her and noticed the tears streaming down her face,
"I'm so sorry you have to live with clipped wings, I really would let you free if I could," Sage whispered. She reached out her hand and gently stroked the side of Valkyrie's face
(Random)
Riptide:
Tears streamed down her face, she hated being grounded. She trotted to a clump of grass and started eating. she was thirsty but she would have to make do
Sage,
"I'm sorry girl," Sage said, Sage leans over and hugged Valkyrie's neck,
"I wish I didn't have to clip your flight feathers, it's so awful not being able to fly," Sage whispered,
(Random pegasus from her herd? Or Arashi?)
Riptide:
She positioned her wings like she was flying and started running. Then she slowed down and let Sage mount her and she started trotting then cantering and galloping. The wind in her mane. She saw a member if her old herd pass over her and she looked at the sky. Her wings taught. She leapt but landed and stopped moving
Sage,
"Woah, easy girl," Sage said, as she slid off of Valkyrie, and walked to where she could see her,
"I know you don't like this, but you need to know that other riders that try to train the wildling's use whips and they are a bit more harsh," Sage said,
She took the lead role and lead Valkyrie around some more starting at a walk then going to a run.
Riptide:
The landwalker was on top of her. She bucked gently trying to understand. She ran in a circle and darted back and forth. She whinnied, "I DONT LIKE THIS!" Loudly trying to make her listen.
Sage,
"Okay girl I'm not going to saddle you, but I am going to try to ride you bareback," Sage said,
Sage took a deep breath, then hopped on, hoping Valkyrie wouldn't buck.
Riptide:
She trusted the Landwalker and walked quietly if she tried to saddle her she would fight back
Sage,
Sage hearing Fost, immediately got up, walked out of Valkyrie's stall and went to get some tack and a halter, she went into Valkyrie's stall with the halter,
"Okay girl, I need to train you, so I meet to put this on you okay?" Sage said.
Sage gently put the halter on her and tightened it, then lead her out of her stall into a field outside.
Next day: Fost:
He entered the barn and saw Sage in the stall with the wildling. "Sage wake up and train her today! She needs to walk trot canter and gallop by tomorrow or I will train her!" then he left
Riviare:
She left them, night was falling and she lead Pele to her room. "You get the bed tonight, Pele." She curled up on the floor and fell asleep
Sage,
Sage smiled softly as she felt the warmth of Valkyrie's wing over her.
And Sage soon fell asleep
Riptide:
She saw the Landwalker by her hooves and she lay down carful not to crush her. She set her wings over her to keep her warm and fell alseep herself
Sage,
Sage still half asleep waved at Riviare,
"Cool name" she said,
Riviare: "Look at her flight feathers, they are cut. She was wild and then they caught her and cut her feathers." She saw Sage and said, "Hi Sage. I named the wildling. Her name is Valkyrie."
Fost: "Princess what are you doing with that Thief?!" He asked loudly.
"What thief?" Riviare asked.
"Pele is a thief."
Riviare said. "Get out of my barn not Fost!"
He left.
Sage,
Sage cried for a few hours, but when she could not fall asleep she slipped out of the hut unnoticed. Then she started running to the stables in hopes of falling asleep there.
Once Sage got to the stables she found the secret latch and walked inside.
Sage walked to Arashi's stall and unlatched it, "com'on girl, I'm going to let you free to see your herd for a while." Sage said as she walked over to the wall, she unlocked it and the door swung open.
Arashi nikkered happy and walked out side, Arashi spread her wings and took to the air.
Sage smiled as she locked the latch. She walked over to the wildling's stall and went inside. "Hey, girl. I might fall asleep in here, but I trust you." Sage said
She walked over to a corner curled up and cried herself to sleep.
Pele
”she is definitely a warrior. What are wildlings”
Riviare:
"Yes me too. Lets go to the barn, Pele. Mother may we go?" Shomani laughed. "Yes dear, be in bed by 10, ok?"
"Yes mother," She grabbed Pele and rushed out side. "The guards are off no on should be there but us. I want to see the wildlings."
She shoved the door open to the empty barn. She ran to Jett's stall and gave him water and hay. "There boy."
She walked up to the mare and tried to pet her but she shied away. "Fine I will call you Valkyrie, she was a female warrior like you." "What do you think Pele?"
Pele
“i am stuffed!”
Riptide:
"I have a wild herd...... They would take you in if you free me!" She knew they did not know her but might trust her
Alkomaru:
Alko grinned at the commotion Frei was making. He liked that he wasn't alone; that there were others like him, who wanted to be free.
"Lay off 'er, Calor," he brayed, flaring his wings, glaring at the small space between the stall door and the ceiling. He narrowed his eyes, frustrated. However stupid his rider may be, the Landwalkers who built this place certianly weren't. The space was much too small for even a barely grown mare to fly through. He longed more than anything to be free.
"Frei," he asked, "do you have an answer yet? To my question?" he lowered his voice so only the mare could hear, re-folding his wings and flicking an ear. He stomped on his dry hay with his front hoof, leaning over to sip some of his water.
I wish escape were easier.
I need out of here.
NOW.
Frei:
After a wild ride a shaken Arki led Frei back to her stall. But the large mare wouldn't have it. Multiple stable hands had to wrestle her into the stall as she bucked and kicked. She ended up sending a few landwalkers to the clan nurse and broke Calors door. Once she was in, she bucked and kicked. No container could hold her in.
Calor:
"Great. Now you've broken my door. What's next my neck?" he joked.
Sage,
As Sage walked into their hut the first thing she saw was her sister furiously organizing things around the hut,
"What's wrong?" Sage asked,
"What's wrong! What's wrong is that Lightning helped a wild kilahari escape!
She just grapped the whip and through it and somehow her hooves were able to slice through the halter! You know how hard it is to find wild kilahari around here!" Kettie fumed.
"Okay, well I'll just tell you what happend to me today, we found a wild kilahari, and I took her back to the stables. She looked and acted like she wasn't feeling well, so I gave her herbs and roots to help her."
"Why do you have to be like mom! Your not a vet! You dont have any knowledge of herbs!"
"Uhhh, EXCUSE ME, but WHO was the one that stayed at the clinic with mom to help her out! I was, while you were off gallivanting around with dad!" Ssge shouted, Sage ran to their room barely hearing her sister call out to her.
Once she got to her room she collapsed onto her cot in sobs.
Riviare:
"I dont think you would have seen Pele she came from the Dakurian empire." She lied
(Sage is the only person Riptide trusts for will trust for a while)
Eara
”Oh. have we met? Pele?”
Pele
”Whaaaat? Noooo!” Pele says completely unconvincingly (by the way,please go on YT, look up sultan sketches weird things I do. Then please tell me how to make a gif)
(I'm surprised how long this is woth only a day and a half)
Sage,
Sage noticed when the young mare feel asleep, she put the brush away, and grabbed two pails, she quickly filled one with grass and the other with fresh stream water, she hurried back to the stable to set them in the wildling's stall,
"Bye girls!" She called, and headed back to her hut
Riviare:
"I will teach her."
Eara
”Oh! Interesting. Can she ride?”
Riviare:
She jerked her head up, she had been thinking about the wildling. "I ran into her today. And she told me how many people are starving so I am going to help them and I gave her a job." Responding to Eara.
Riptide:
Riptide sighed when her coat was brushed it felt good and she fell asleep
(Augh my only characters are in the palace!)
Sage,
"Huh?" She looked down at her hand which had a brush in it, "I must of fallen asleep grooming Arishi," Sage muttered, she looked at the wild kilahari that was kicking the door,
Sage walked out of Arashi's stall and went into the Kilahari's stall,
"What's wrong girl," Sage asked, gently petting her neck, she gently patted her head but pulled her and away when the wildling jerked her head,
"I'll be right back, okay girl," Sage grabbed the empty pail on the floor and headed out of the wildling's stall,
Sage walked to a small creek that was nearby and filled the pail with it.
Sage walked back to the stable, and she stopped for a second to grab some roots and herbs, she mashed the herbs into a paste then walked into the wildling's stall.
"Here you go girl," sage said setting down the pail of fresh stream water ,
Sage gently rubbed the paste onto the wildling's head and spoke soothing words.
Sage grabbed the roots and set them onto the ground, "those will also help with the pain," she whispered.
Sage walked to the other side of the stall and picked up a brush and walked over to the mare,
"I'm just going to brush your coat okay girl?" Sage gently set the brush onto her coat and did slow calming streaks, as she brushed the mares coat she hummed a song that her mother used to sing to her before she feel asleep.
Eara
”Riviare, so, where did you meet Pele?”
Riptide:
She ate then she slept for hours. When she woke she kicked her stall door again. Her head hurt and her throat was dry. "Landwalker..... Landwalker.... Help!" hoping the nice landwalker would come back and help her
( I'm confused. Are. Or are there not. Wild Kihlari. Cause if there were, would steeds like Frei just escape. Also, the Sandwens would've hunted them all down and domesticated them. Right. The only reason Frei hasn't escaped is because she doen't want to be a lone pagasus. But then again, it is just my opinion. I just think it would make better sense if there weren't any wild steeds.)
@Nightsong Your back!
Sage breathed a sigh of relief, when the kilhari made no signs of attack, her mother was a vet before she died, she felt the legs then the chest, the back
"You dont seem to have any physical injuries or broken bones," she went to the Kilahari's face, she checked the eyes, nostrils and mouth,
"You must have a cold, your eyes are a bit hazy, your nostrils are a bit stuffy and your mouth is a bit red, I got a few herbs for that, I'll be back in a second."
Sage quickly left the stall and came back with a few herbs.
Sage walked back into the stall and gave the kilhari a few to eat.
Sage smiled when she ate them off of her hand. Sage grabbed her other herbs and mashed them with her hands.
"This will help with your congestion," Sage said spreading the mush on the kilhari's chest.
"I'll be in the next stall over if you need me," sage said petting the mare, she quickly slipped out of the stall and locked it behind her and went back to Arashi's stall to groom her more.
(you have to go?)
(Bye!)
Eara
Eara stares at the Pele girl, trying to figure out where she’s heard of her from. “Yes...hello,” she murmurs faintl.
bye
Riptide:
She calmed when the landwalker came into her stall hoping she would help.
Shomani:
"Hello...."
"Her name is Pele, mother." Riviare said.
"Hello Pele."
Pele
”Hello, Queens!” She says, curtsing and sitting down politely.
Sage,
Sage looked over to the new mare who was squilling and kicking, she left Arashi's stall and went over to the wildling's stall,
"Ok girl, I'm going in there, I just want to see if your hurt" she unlatched the stall and quickly went in and shut it be hind her, she walked slowly up to the mare hoping she would not kick.
Riviare:
"No but we have to get to the table NOW! Or we are in trouble." They rushed down the halls to the dinning hall. "Follow me and sit nicely." She entered the room and sat down.
Pele
”Fine. Do I still have to change?”
Riviare:
"Yes I know. I dress up like that so I can give out bread and money on the streat. That is what I do. I dont look down my nose t them all. You have one more chance. Dont blow it."
Pele
”Fine. I sm sorry. honestly sorry. I didn’t realize you would be so mad. you have so much wealth, but on the streets, there are starving people.”
Riptide:
Riptide squealed and kicked trying to get a vet
Oluja:
She saw her chance when she noticed the foolish mare from her herd called Mahoganysand dart into the barn.
All the Sandwen's and Riders were distracted by this, so she turned tail and ran. She grunted at her useless wings. They dragged behind her and only made her slower.
Oluja frowned, but darted behind a large tree and hid so no one saw her.
Sage,
Sage finished up filling up both the pails with sweet grass, and headed back to the stables, she entered the stables and lowered a pail into the Kilahari's stall "There you go, some more fresh grass for you, and also for you Arashi," she walked into Arashi's stall and set the pail down.
Sage grabbed a brush and started brushing down Arashi's coat.
Sage,
"Sorry girl," she said to the wild kilahari
"But I can get more!" Sage ran out of the stable grabbing two pails as she left
( Yes, Nightsong, she is EXTREMELY stupid and naive xD )
(It can stay. I did kind of hope that they would eventually be friend. The banishing is the only thing I would argue. The tying up is agreeable)
Mahoganysand:
Mahoganysand stood respectfully, only flinching once when he clipped her wings. She followed him as he lead her with a neck rope to a stall. She stood respectfully and sighed, so happy to be in the barn.
It wasn’t what she thought it would be.
She had no rider, and all she did was either stay in that stall all day or was turned out into the paddocks. She began to long for the freedom she once had, missing her parents and her friends back in the jungle.
(Oh wow. I am sorry it wasn’t supposed to be that extrem. Sorry)
Riptide:
She nibbled the grass and ate it all rubbing her head on the landwalkers hand wanting more. She still felt sick
Riviare:
"You are banished from this fort!" Keeping her voice low. "I trusted you wanted you to change but this is what you do! You are banished to the out skirts if you come back than you better have changed and if you have not you will go the dungion unless I invite you back. DO you hear me!"
Pele
”You never would’ve noticed the differance in wealth!”
Pele
”What on earth! I didn’t touch that much!”
Sage,
Sage walked over to a wild kilahari, she noticed the hole in the stall and sighed,
"I know how you feel girl, I wish we didn't have to cut your flight feathers it's awfull not to soar through the sky the wind hitting your face" Sage said she glanced at the ground noticing the tipped over water bucket and the hay that was everywhere,
"I think you'd rather have fresh stream water and fresh grass huh? Lucky for you I got some grass, it's not fresh but better than hay," Sage reached into her pocket and took out a handful of nice sweet grass, Sage set it down on the top of the stable door,
"And some for you to Arashi," Sage said holding out the fresh grass on her flat and, Arashi ate it quickly and then nuzzled Ssge for more
Sage laughed "sorry girl that's all"
Fost:
He lastowed the strange mare pulled her down and cut her feather, then he turned her into a stall gave her hay and water and left her.
Riviare:
She knew she was too trusting. She wanted to trust Pele and she had been lied to again. She followed her for 10 minutes befor grabbing her arms and and tying her up
Mahoganysand:
The mare took off into the sky, naive and stupid as she spotted the perfect barn next to a large filed. She dived down, hearing all of the grooms and riders inside. This was where they had taken Riptide.
She landed loudly, making sure the Landwalkers could hear her, and just stood there with her ears swiveling.
Pele
Pele keeps glancing back, but she never sees anything huh, maybe the princess really did trust me. Hah! I will rob her blind and escape!
