Make me want it.
Romulous took short, even steps through the heavily vegetated forrest path. Her body was weary and tired. Deep dark circles fell covenant under her glossy blue eyes, which looked filmy with wear. Her dark black robes swept the floor as she walked on, catching bits of dust and leaves in their lacy lining. Romulous paid no attention to this, as she had much more in mind. She had escaped, true,. but to what? She hadn't an idea where she was, or where she was headed. She was taken into this land that was not her own, and she was driven only by the hope that there might be something more. Earlier, she had sensed it...she was sure of it. There were others, and nearby as well. She wouldn't let herself fail; at least not until she found those who she was sensing.
As her vision blurred slightly, Romulous stopped, and lowered herself to the ground, sliding her teeth gently over her lips to ease the pains that welled inside her. Her body was tired, and hardly able to sustain her any longer. As the salty, coppery taste of blood sunk onto her tongue she lifted a hand to her mouth. The skin had broken so easily... She took this as an initiative to stand, and go on. She placed a hand on the miniature silver dagger that hun on a leather thong on her chest. As she fingered it, a noise reached her ears.
People....
She sped up a bit, increasing her pace until she had the city in view. it was bustling with many different people. It's gates were open, andno one seemed to care in stopping her. She collected a few skeptical glances, and some harsh words, but paid no attenion. A young woman...or was she? rose above a few guards, who stared agape at her body. Romulous herself had a hard time keeping her eyes of the perfect figure that hovered above. What the hell was happening here?
Suddenly, a cough suddred Romulous' whole body. She let herself sink steadily to the ground, and backed herself against the stone wall of a building, keeping herself away from onlookers. She decided she would find out about what was happening later. Using the last ounce of magical energy she could muster, Romulous dipped her hands into a small puddle of water beside her , and lifted them to her mouth. She drank greedily the taste of sustanance, and the newfound feel of hope that she could finally grasp.
