NEVER KNEW I WAS A DANCER / open

[Nayru]

In her dream, everything was dark. Nayru had stumbled through the suffocating black for as long as she could, bumping into unidentifiable objects and hoping and praying to the Goddesses above that she would not come across anything dangerous - she was a princess not a warrior after all, and though the two could peacefully coincide within one being, she was far from adept in anything combative - but it was growing to be too much.

The voices helped her not. Detached whispers that seemingly belonged to no one, they surrounded her trembling form as she continued on within this awful place. The nurse had been, as far as she was concerned, alone... so who kept speaking to her? The whispers only managed to grow louder and more audible as she pressed on and a chill coursed through her petite figure when she realized that they were talking about [i]her.

[b]"The Goddess of Wisdom is dead!" One cackled.

"Her sisters will follow her soon!" Screamed another.

But she wasn't the Goddess of Wisdom. They shared a name, certainly, but she was far from a divine entity. Why did she feel as if this was about her?

"Their worlds will fall apart. We've succeeded."[/i]

And then, Nayru woke up.

She was obviously distressed as she abandoned her tiny room, needing to feel the sun on her face more than anything. [b][color=#6b7e99]"What was that?" Nayru inquired in a small voice, finding a place situated in the sunlight to resettle within. A foreboding feeling had all but swallowed her as she gazed at her clanmates, lips twisting into a frown and her mind going about a mile a minute. She so desperately wanted to understood but found that she couldn't. She absolutely couldn't. A sigh fell from alabaster lips and she shut her eyes for a brief second.

[color=#6b7e99]"Maybe I should never have left home."
