Mystic River

[Moon]

Character name: Mystic River
Login: Red Serpent

In a dark ally somewhere, she is all alone. Her golden locks are let free and flies tangled as she moves. Her delicate hands are dancing in the air, drawing glyphs, as she is trying to grasp after some invisible power. Suddenly a tiny ball of energy forms in her palm. Her eyes show immeasurable light and excitement but then the energy starts flickering, weakens and fades away.

She exhales, feels a bit lightheaded after the immense concentration that drained her body. Her mind aches as it is gripped by waves of hatred, images and sensations colliding. She falls on her knees in what seems a hopeless laughter, she drifts away.

Her mind takes her back to her family, her panic as her father cries out “Run, run for your life”.. she grabs the reins of the horse for a quick mount and rides away in the dark… The earth trembling of runaway horses and the company of men that follows behind guarding the captured treasure. Again she has left her sister.. to bleed..

She opens her eyes and looks around at her surroundings, it’s very dark. Sitting cross legged, hands clasped before her, she closes her eyes again. It has been long since she focused, long since she performed this most necessary of disciplines. Is it time?

(for reference see Moon River, ya ya perhaps a bit cheesy but hopefully fun nonetheless)
