SEMPITERNAL

Steam gushed from gaping crevices etched into the weathered and barren crust of the earth, flooding the crisp autumn atmosphere with its heat and embracing the adolescent?s developing form with its welcomed warmth. Shadows played across the familiar landscape of her mother?s chosen residency, dancing beneath the silver moonlight in a land encompassed by ephemeral twilight, causing vibrant amethyst and crystalline grey eyes to frantically dart towards each disturbance as they occurred, wary of her surroundings that were opt for invasion at any given moment. This vast kingdom was no longer a possession of the Elysius and thus the little dove?s home was at a constant risk of seizing by greater legions, and with her proctor absent somewhere in the depths of Tortugan territory, she and her siblings were most vulnerable ? sitting targets to catastrophe. A brief whine cascaded from velveteen lips gone awry with the presence of a grimace as the pallid babe eased herself into the scathing depths of a shallow spring, iridescent waters consuming her minuscule form until all that remained was her neck and skull. Eyelids greeted one another forcefully as if to dull the slight pinch her flesh received from the heated liquid within the pool, lessening the pressure as the temperature became tolerable until she could finally succumb to the serenity of bathing, a prolonged sigh slithering through the gap of her unhinged jaws. Lids fluttered open to reveal once-concealed mismatched eyes that immediately darted towards the horizon, pupils eager for the familiar form of her siblings or mother but finding nothingness instead. Internally, she shrugged, maneuvering back towards the edge of the pool before she propped herself against it, allowing comfort to teem throughout her interior. |
