It happened every single year, and today was no different. Only this time, there was an intensity not quite present in years past.
The group had holed themselves in the living room, not a word spoken between any of them. In the farthest end of the living room, a small dual-coloured fox was sunning herself on the sill of the bay windows; the orange peppered fur that glowed in the sunlight gave the impression of her being on fire, though she hardly looked disturbed by the heat her dark body was absorbing. Beside her on the floor was a considerably larger creature; adorned in garland trappings that coiled around his tines, yellow and white flowers peppering the moss that made up his frame, he too was sunning – for a very different reason.
Sprawled on the light blue carpeting in the middle of the room were three other deer. One was a small Muntjac doe, though her male build could have fooled a stranger; she was resting on the back of a larger doe, her magpie markings shimmering in the light that peeked its way through the windows. Curled up against the side of her stomach, ears flickering occasionally, was yet another doe – this one was even smaller than either of her two floor mates, her tiny brown body hiding her face.
The magpie doe turned to look at the final occupant of the room; her coat was pure white, contrasting the more neutral fabric of the couch she was occupying. Black tipped ears swiveled forward as glassy gold eyes came to rest on the blues that started back at her; she watched as the magpie’s eyes traced the fishnet that decorated her front legs.
“Do you like them?” The white doe asked, her voice low, slightly scratchy. The magpie’s eyes returned to hers, locking.
“They’re certainly different, that much I will say.” The magpie deadpanned.
Spirited One: Died from a re-occurred infection (Quad can document this)
Cinch: Died the second time he tried to exit the forest
Owl: Wasnt very active anyways, so just forget about him.
I am still here on TEF, though only one person on here knows what my new alias is.
The Endless Forest is a dream coming true for a little fawn named Luna.
After months of imagining fields of green grass, ponds with clear water and magical fountains, the Endless Forest appeared to be much more beautiful then in her dreams.
A long time ago, a small family of deer parents and a little fawn started a long journey in a search for a place called the Endless Forest. No one of them knew exactly where this place would be, but they kept dreaming about it like a vision. They followed the sound of hope calling in their heart; melodies of a fresh waterfall, hills with purple flowers and lots of other fawns and doe's to play with.
The journey was long and heavy. The parents of the little fawn were very old and constantly in danger on the travel. They didn't made it. The little fawn woke up on a grey morning and realised that she was all alone. Her parents were gone forever, eaten by a bear or a lion. Whatever it was, the decided to wait for it to come back so it could get her also. She would never made it to the forest in her dreams on her own.
But when night came, the moon started to talk to her with the voice of her mother. The voice reminded her to their one goal in life; finding the Endless Forest and starting a new, happy life. Blinded by the voice, the fawn started to follow it and after days of walking she arrived in the forest. On her own, lonely, but happy and surprised by all the beauty and safety.
Luna, named by the way she came in the forest, is a modest little fawn who's just trying to make a new family and friends. She misses the company of deers who really love her and care for her and sometimes she likes to just sit near the pond and watch the deer family and friends playing with eachother like she and her parents used to do.
But she never forgets the reason why she came her; her parents still want her to be happy.
