I sent a prayer for something holy

~she's on the main deck of the ship
She had noticed the strange object in the distance for a while now, but hadn’t gone to investigate until she felt comfortable in their new… beginning of a home. It wasn’t quite home yet, and honestly she wasn’t sure if it could ever be considered home, but she was with her family, and that’s what really mattered in the end. Her long strides quickly brought her closer to the frozen, and frankly gigantic, object. It seemed stuck in the ice, and she quickly investigated if there was any way to safely climb up on top of it. It took a bit of work, blunt claws digging into the icy parts so she didn’t go sliding back down, and heaving herself over the ledge, but eventually she made her way up to the top where it flattened out. Her claws clicked audibly as she walked along the partially frozen top, sniffing curiously at the weirdness of the whole thing. It was so foreign to her, the strange smoothness of this place, but it was nice and quiet. Iðunn sat down near the edge, tipping her head back to look up at the early night sky where stars twinkled up above. She took in a deep breath, closed her eyes, and let out a long wavering note. Her voice called out to the stars themselves above, an almost wistful tone as she sang about what had already passed, and what still had yet to be. The notes rose to a crescendo, haunting to the ears of any who were close enough to hear, echoing out in the stillness of the night. Her song finally tapered off with a single high note, and then she sat there, simply looking up at the stars and moon. |
