Esmeray tilted her head. Stop crying? ... Boy if only it were that simple. The cat creature reached up, wiping away the tears again. I cannot. She responded simply, her smile never fading away. She had been crying for millennia. She was fairly sure it was her heart bleeding that caused it, where ever it was. It obviously wasn't here with her. She wouldn't be bleeding with so. And she would have pupils. Those would be nice to have again. It was slightly annoying seeing the same amount of light at all times. The sun hurt her eyes while she couldn't see in the dark. It was hard.
She had to admit, she wasn't expecting to see a panther of all things. Especially one with wings. Esmeray tilted her head, humming quietly in the back of her throat. She could feel her heart beating far, far away as she called her power to her core, watery wings sprouting from her back to mirror Anima's. She turned back to the feathers, reaching up to comb her paws through them. ... Hmm. Nope. Not a trait she was interested in keeping. The feathers exploded, forming into white puddles on the ground, soaking into the dirt. Small sprouts grew where the liquid dropped. She slowly turned back up, wiping her eyes for the third time.
She was silent for a few moments before replying. I'm not sure, She spoke in an almost alien tone, Many people have waited here before, for reasons I'm not sure why, so I waited as well to find out. Her tail tapped against the floor as her shoulders squared up, her smile growing. And here you are! Are you a prophet? What is a "tanglewood?" she questioned.
"SPEECH"
