{I} Conception...


{II} Birth...






Press play and scroll, slowly~!




































A small, mysterious glowing orb has appeared in the Endless Forest, hovering slightly above the grass. A strange, comforting warmth surrounds it, yet something, a force of some sort, prevents any direct physical contact.

The orb's light seems to gently pulse when the breath of another touches it, and it almost seems to flicker in response to being spoken to...


{2/29/2016}
A mysterious liquid fell upon the orb from a sweet soul, Beyleen, and was absorbed, awakening an independent heartbeat-like pulsing. The orb no longer needs breath to pulse, but its light still brightens briefly when touched by breath.

Anyways, here is a thing. I am very sorry for the sloppyness, I have been really sick this weekend and like an idiot, I decided to tackle a plot blog by myself over 1 night, and it resulted in losing a lot of sleep heh.

I was going to explain the plot, but I then decided it was best to let the images narrate to the viewer's imagination, instead. All I am going to say is that this all started because of a strange yet unbreakable bond between a nameless peacock and chicken hen, and the glowing orb contains the result of the two final forms of their souls becoming one.

As the orb seems to react only to breaths, we can say that speaking to it or breathing near it may, eventually, cause something to happen.

RP interaction is encouraged!
Keep in mind that you do not have to be an advanced Rper at all to join in! You can do script style even, if you're more comfortable with that.

I am curious as to how characters might react to this lil glow. I also thought it could be fun to have this be a community thing. hehe

The orb looks intriguing. I

The orb looks intriguing. I find it a fun nod to the 'genderless avatar' in the game options, as well. Fits with the lore.
I'm not a good one when it comes to rps. Goes without saying that my deer would bring some friends and party with the orb, though.

Thanks! Haha XD You're

Thanks!

Haha XD You're right. It does look like that, huh?

And that sounds really amusing lol though you really don't have to be a good RPer to do this ^^

But if you still don't want to give it a go, I completely understand!

A small, fluffy doe sees


A small, fluffy doe sees something glowing in the distance. It is a normal day in the Birch, but this surreal moment seems to make everything around her feel unnatural. She glances around herself, no one else is closeby. Am I dreaming? she thinks.
Curious, the doe trots towards the shimmering light. She assumes quickly that it a gem, cluster of candles, a bubble...
However she is struck with awe and shock as she comes closer. The light from the orb reflects the iridescent glaze of the doe's eyes, and she find she cannot look away from the glow. The doe is some feet from it now, and she finds comfort in its warmth. Slowly, the doe lies upon the ground, tucking her legs and hooves snuggly under. Stretching her neck a bit forward, a breathy word is spoken. "Hello..?"


(this isn't the greatest but I figured I'd try lol)

The orb is still, hovering



The orb is still, hovering gently over the grass. There are no movements, just serene stillness reflecting what was once the spirit of the Forest, and yet, it holds an aura of something otherworldly.

As if a living being gathering up the ability to sense, a stillness is felt in the air as the doe approaches the orb, and then...the warm orb feels breath upon it. The warmth of this breath, the sound of the voice; it summons something strange; a pulse, a flicker, something that might indicate life of some sort, or perhaps the representation of life in its newest, purest of forms; life before it is seen, life before it is considered so.


(Thank you! XD I was worried no one cared about this, and my gosh are you kidding? That post was awesome, and trust me I am not picky!)

Stood atop his hill

Stood atop his hill overlooking the grassy meadows around him. He'd woken before the sun, and the darkness was still thick in the air. Suddenly, something caught his eye. What's that? he thought, squinting his eyes in the darkness. Something was in the distance, a strange glowing light. It was too far for Comen to understand, so he debated on whether to get closer. His predator and prey instinct began to clash in his mind, causing him to ruffle his feathers in agitation. Stop being a wuss... What if they're candles? And with that, he began confidently marching downhill, chest puffed out. If it were candles, Comen would add them to his collection. As he got closer, he noticed a group of deer were forming around the strange light. Aw bummer, I was really wanting some more candles... he griped when no candles were in sight. As his eyes settled on his favorite doe, Bayleen, he pranced over to her nudging her side affectionately. He fed off of her confidence, inching closer when she did.

@Kamaya} I smiled when I read


@Kamaya} I smiled when I read your comment. It means so much to me you appreciate the images, you are the first to even acknowledge they exist, so just thank you so much for that ;v;
I know they are sloppy and I was sick while doing them, but I really appreciate your acknowledgement and feedback on my efforts.

Also don't worry too much about joining in if you are too tired, Kamaya. Just focus on getting good rest!

@ JoeClark} I chuckled at your post, Comen is so adorable XD

This is so pretty! I love the

This is so pretty! I love the illustrations and colors, and this little orb seems interesting. I'm curious to see what's gonna happen.
I'll drop a small 'interaction' here with my Scully. It's not very positive from his pov, but I hope it's alright. ;-;
-
Inkface stands amongst golden grass and squints. Further below the hill deer are gathered in a spot, and in the middle lays - floats, actually - a ball of magic. It's colorful, it's bright. It's... it hurts.

"Glow less little star, stop messin' with me head," Scully murmurs from under his breath quiet enough it wouldn't reach the ears of another deer. The swirling light of a beautiful miracle feels like thousand of needles in his aching head, and despite the comfortable warmth it's emitting, he shifts further.

"Scram, or at least shine dimmer. Stars belong up in the sky." Ears ringing Scully turns and wanders off himself.

Oooh thank you soooo much!



Oooh thank you soooo much! That means so much to me!

Also wow I loved your post XD There is something poetic about it that I really like, and the more negative approach to the orb's existence is unique and interesting to me.

We shall see what happens!

In all honesty the old one is

In all honesty the old one is suprised that she's here, there's....no real reason she shouldn't be here but there also wasn't a reason that she should be. This time there were no gifts to deliver or people to look for. She was here simply because she could be. A marked change from the last months where she had advoided this place like a plauge, staying as far from these ever-growing trees as she could. Yet here she was, moving through the famliar passages of the forst. Lilith suposes that this was a part of moving on, being able to go back to special places and feel nothing much for them. A patch of dandelions catches her eye, gaze focusing on the pulsing ball of multi-colored light. A smile curves across her lips at the familiar sight, this has happened to her before. The doe draws close to the egg, gently blowing a breath against it's surface. The Twins were meddling again, she knew this kind of energy well.

"Well, another little light..." She nudges the air around the egg gently before settling next to it. Company like this had been missed, true the previous light egg had given her Noa but knowing that she could visit the same place and consistatly find someone was important. "Welcome dear, hope you find this place agreeable once you come." Lilith would sit there for awhile, leaving imeadiatly once someone else started their aproach. She wasn't up for meeting anyone today.
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

@Veedeer} Awww, Vee! You are



@Veedeer} Awww, Vee! You are so kind XD Thank you very much!

@Ebony3} Okay...I didn't expect to actually get tears from this, but my gosh that post was gorgeous, and my chest actually tightened from the feels I got from it. My goodness, Ebony, you never cease to impress me with your writing, and Lilith is just such a beautiful character I can't even muster up the words.
Blaagh I love this post so much!

The owl doe looked to her

The owl doe looked to her friend once he approached, smiling up at him in a wordless greeting before redirecting her attention back to the orb that pulsed like a heart. A sudden, bizarre idea sprouted in the doe's mind. Without a sound, she rose to her hooves and trotted to a large boulder a small ways away. Lifting a leg up, she made a gash in her leg-- a tiny one, right above her hoof. Bayleen didn't even flinch.
The doe returned to the glowing orb and lifted the wounded leg high above the orb. A gold-colored liquid dripped from the gash, dropping onto the orb...

(The more I see of Beyleen, the more goddess-like she seems XD something about that, matched with her personality, is quite lovely in a way.)



The drop of liquid fell towards the orb, and time almost stood still as it reached the colorful aura that surrounded the glowing shape, drowning into the light. At first, all was still, but then something occurred...something new from the strange little thing. It began a series of flickers of pulses. Gently, subtly, but without the aid of breath as the time before. It was unsteady at first, but soon picked up a rhythm; the one of a heartbeat. One could swear they could hear the beats of this pulsing light.

A pair of curious, wide eyes

A pair of curious, wide eyes stare at something glowing in the distance. The light emitting from the mysterious thing reflects and dances in their grey eyes, causing them to quietly move closer. From their cover in the trees, the ebony and white figure slowly slips out- step by step. Softly, quietly getting closer. Their long tail slithers behind them, the tip swaying a little in curiosity. As they grow closer, their pale white face leans forward with anticipation.

What is this...?

So otherworldly and beautiful...

It feels alive.

But there are others here, too.



Her ears tilted forward and she curiously took in the air through her nostrils, finding one familiar scent. Bayleen. Yet there were others, too. The doe halted her approach and kept herself at the treeline, watching silhouettes around the object.

Decided to finally drop something here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Little Niriya was prancing happily, singing White Winter. She stopped suddenly as she felt something. She did not see it. She just felt it. The little goat decided to trust her instinct and followed it across the Woods, curious. She was soon near a strange orb with some other creatures around it. It was so beautiful. At this point, both of her personalities got mixed up. Like if she was a single person, which she had never felt since years. Both the child and the adult were filled with emotions.

Niriya approached slowly, trying to not disturb the others around and wondering what was this blazing jewel. She felt something strange as the orb was right in front of her. An indescribable, unexplainable feeling that was making her heart racing. She felt warmth, yet coldness as well. Her head and body were now at only one or two centimeters from the orb, her cold breath touching it. She closed her eyes and tried to press her muzzle and her forehead against the egg-like object but something repulsed her, preventing her from doing so. The look on her face changed, showing her sadness of not being able to physically feel the orb by touching it. However, she smiled as she laid down next to it, watching over it until she would have to go back into the Human World.

"Сердце?, she softly said. Сердце." She wanted to say "heart" in English but she was so astounded that she forgot how to speak it and her mother tongue got the upper hand. She closed her eyes again and felt and heard nothing else than just the orb and her heart beating back to normal, along with the pulses of its light.
