Filigree was flying, searching for the shadow well from her position in the sky. Seeing the swirling of black and purple from the air, she started to make her descent down to the ground. Landing softly, she searched the area for Afra, the Justice of the Shadow Well. For all the trials she had been through, she had been hesitant about getting lessons from them, especially hearing about their wolf form put her on edge. I mean, who wouldn't be? Sharp teeth and claw...

The next day, Filigree woke up to the noise of melodic songs being echoed in the bay. Birds with massive wings started to fly over her, squeaking something. When she looked closer, they weren’t birds. Their wings had a rainbow sheen to them and their bodies were too small. She lay there and watched them for a moment before standing up and following the music that was echoing in the bay. Her hooves touched the sand as she walked to the edge of the water to see ...

Filigree had been sleeping peacefully next to the boulder she nestled against, tired from Lord Wiikset’s lessons from the previous day, dreaming about becoming helpful to those around her. Only the dream got weird real quick. The elkh around her started to snort and sniff, sounding like boars searching for truffles… when she woke up, she wasn't far from that estimation. Surrounding her were boarlets, the little things were using their snouts to lift her legs...

Black feathered wings flapped as Filigree landed in Aiti’s Grotto. Rumor had it that the Beast Lords were willing to help those Aitielkh with their magic. She was willing, no, wanting to improve her magic to help others! Though… she wasn't sure which of the lords would be here. Heard that Lord Villoso and his boarlets lived in the Rainsong Forest. Just before she could call out, something rustled quickly in the grass! Filigree braced herself from the incoming attack, shutting her eyes, on...

“Help Afra! Afra needs help at the well!” The black corva was flying and trying to peck at Minos's head as he trudged along, wanting to get the damn bird away from him. When Yeet agreed to watch Calix while he attended this matter, he almost shredded the annoying pest with his pottery shards. Surprisingly, Yeet had stopped him from defeathering the flying carrion eater. Saying he had heard from other Shroomkins th...

“How should we do this?” Una pondered as she circled the wooden structure once more, using her thaumaturgy magic to try and force a gap open to squeeze Afra through it. It was no use as the magic would hold firm and deflect hers. She had to stop herself a few times from stomping her hooves in frustration in front of her new… ally. All Capella did was sit there and watch Una, not offering a word of suggestion.   “You know, as an ‘ally’, feel free to throw any suggest...

“COME BACK HERE! I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU!” There was a bugling, a flash of something dark on the ground, then a furry purplish bullet of fur going by, it turns out the bugling was from a Villa Aitielkh by the name of Capella. Her little hooves echoed throughout as shadows seemed to scramble away from her. She was laughing maniacally before charging at a shaded wall and leaping into it, using her shadow step to enter the world of shadows. She didn't stop, bound...

“Papa? Papa?”   Minos groaned but woke up, his vision still blurry as he focused on Calix. The fawn was standing over him, sounding a little spook. “Calix, why aren't you asleep? The sun won't rise for a few more hours.” Minos muttered, trying to get more alert as he slowly woke up from a wonderful dream. His real fawn needed him as Echo had decided to go with Ginkgo for training in the way of Aiti for a bit. Leaving Calix missing his sister and sleep buddy. “I can't ...

It was dawn when Stryga woke up to start her day. Yawning and stretching to get the blood flowing as she stood up in her stall. Every elkh was still asleep as she munched on a piece of bread that was already sliced for her. The gardens needed work to be done and now was the perfect time when no one was around to bother while she tended them. Lipping the latch open from her stall, she started to leave out and into the early morning air....

Starting to feel more established in Onkia, Stryga stepped out of the stable stall she was renting to avoid sleeping outside. Her hooves echoed as she greeted her neighbors as she left, ready to start her day. The gildes she had built up had gone to maintain her appearance, enjoying special treats now and then, and renting a place she can call home. She didn’t realize what she had been missing out from all this! Stryga had a standing position and no one looked at her like a monstrous elkh s...

Stryga was trotting hurriedly to the bank before it closed to collect her gildes. She had forgotten to pick them up during the day since she was still working at night and sleeping during the day. The eyes of others were felt, switching to a run to get to the bank. Finally reaching her destination, she pushed the door open. Panting, she tiredly went to the counter, showing her citizenship bell charm. A few sticks, a bug, and some dirt fell out of her mane. The t...

Stryga had toiled all night in the gardens and left before anyone could see her, quietly her hooves echoed in the city as she went to wait by Ambassador Alus’s office to fill out the paperwork for official citizenship here in Onkia. Searching for something to hide behind until he was ready to receive guests. Wooden crates provided ample coverage, making herself comfortable on some old tarps, her body curled tightly. The fatigue hit her hard as she laid her hea...

“Just go up and say you're a new citizen in Onkia! Quit being a scaredy Felvit and just do it!” Stryga yelled at herself, pacing back and forth in private as she tried to gather enough courage to meet with Ambassador Alus… who had no clue that she had been living on Onkia. She always stiffened and couldn't say anything. He honestly thought she was a statue who keeps moving around the city. Stryga knew she was the color of stone, but she didn't think it was...

Una rolled her eyes as she blended in with the sheep herd in Kutoa. She had head butted a ram away from her when he realized she wasn't like the rest of his flock and went to mope. Her unihorn and corsage were hidden under the guise of her Thaumaturgy. Along with her markings vanishing under her magic, she had heard from the shepherds talking about the recent events. Apparently bugs that were a head shorter than Villas were eating buildings and whatever else the...

Cicadles were trying to eat the crumbling buildings of the Old Capital that Minos called home, some of the giant bugs were being flung away with his thaumaturgy then being zapped with lighting bolts to stun them. He had almost stomped on a few of them, only for them to scuttle away before he could finish them. He was thankful Gingko had taken the fawns with him for some Aitielkh training or whatever he called it. He thought about sending a message telepathically to the other elkh when a scree...

It felt like ages when Maud was the missing fawn some time ago, being found by Brae and Rachel after the loss of her mother. And now, even in Schel Point, word had gotten around that a fawn was missing just by playing with their companions. Understanding how terrifying it is to be lost, she wanted to help out and find that missing baby. Even as she stood outside the village known as Tuil, she was prepared to have eyes on her for her odd coat. She could see bee m...

Not entirely catching his breath, he felt tension when he realized the gaze of Meridias had hardened when her tail sent him sailing through the air on purpose, sending him into the tree line and was about to brace for impact when he felt himself floating. Opening his eyes, he heard the flapping of what sounded like leather and a tugging on his mane....

He was back. Why he came back was beyond him but he needed to get rid of the corruption that stained the land here and reached his home. He had to do this for Echo and Calix. They deserved to have a future where they don't have to deal with shadow rays or having powerful creatures becoming corrupting beings that could destroy lands. Destroy life like it had done in this circle of barren land. The crunch of the dirt ec...

“I hate traveling… why Miatias, I don't know…” Minos grumbled as he walked through the jungles. His senses were on high alert as he wanted to avoid any predators he wasn't familiar with or wanting a close look of one. “I'm getting too old for this! I just want to relax and not be roped in any adventures while trying to sort out my life!” His voice echoed throughout the trees, a few nature whooping back at him.   ...

Peaceful and quiet, Minos was grazing out of the Old Capital while his kids were playing with their uncle in the city. He trusted Yeet not to let Calix fall into a cistern or pit fall again after what when their play got too intense and left Calix sobbing because he wasn’t doing something right.   Boy is just too tender-hearted after what happened with Maud. Broke his heart to see her reject their son and ke...
