If you're caught in the shadow then turn around
If you hear my voice, follow the sound
'Cause I'm here to guide you home
If you hear my voice, follow the sound
'Cause I'm here to guide you home
Umbra gazed steadily at the unicorn, unphased by her regal indifference. Boring; where was the fun in being so uptight all the time? Belial was more interesting with his cocky challenges, but the bluster was made less impressive by the hiding behind someone bigger. The young dragon began to circle Zuriel, and snapped playfully at her wafting tail; maybe he could persuade her to move, and make this a game of tag.
As for sudden travels to new dimensions... How reckless could it really be, to follow the whims of young girls and step through portals into the unknown? That depended entirely on the girl. In this case, the only risks involved getting sand between the toes and perhaps to lose track of time for a while.
Grinning, Seren clasped the general's hand and and pulled him through the rift. Bright Halo sunshine and cold winds dropped away, exchanged for a star-spangled midnight island. It could have been Torchline on a quiet eve, except for the closeness of the stars - hovering just beyond reach - and the whiteness of the sand, and the utter lack of a horizon to separate sea from sky. A peaceful hush lingered over the place, full with the murmur of waves rolling in upon pristine beaches where washed up treasure nestled, just waiting to be found.
Backing further onto the island while blue gaze watched Deimos for a reaction - this was the best part of bringing friends over for the first time - Seren let the ice drop carelessly into the sand. Surreptitiously keeping the grip on his hand for as long as he would allow, she made a gesture to the island in general; small and serene, an atoll of wonders in a sea of stars. "Interesting, isn't it?"
