Dawn came bright, the pearly white of the clouds against the pinks, blues, and purples while the big star rose to greet the patrons of the Earth. Waves beached against the sand, taking sediments with it to grow in the ocean. But it would not be missed, because for each taken, another was deposited. Trees blew, scraping leaves together to catch the music that flew across the wind to lend a hand in waking the creatures. Birds flew quickly to get the worm so early in the morning, flying against the sky, just a mere shadow in the mayhem of morning rituals.
Daggers grabbed the land slowly as a fae walked onto the beach softly. The wind blew her tendrils toward the sea as whitewashed sand grazed across her stones. Scents of long-lost souls perused her nostrils, although they were old. The past of a long history. Shiny amber eyes captured everything around her. Would this do? Leaving her haven had been tough, but this felt more like home. As she walked, her tiara went up toward the sky. She shifted directions toward a hill to overlook the palace. Her lids fluttered close as she took a deep breath. Sweet salty air gracefully led her, and as she opened her eyes, she thought she was dreaming.
Appreciation. Appreciation for what was in front of her at this moment. Because she didn't know how long it was going to last. Respect. Respect for the other royals that led this land through harmony and peace, keeping it out of the hands of the devils and only for the angels. Perfection. Perfect lands, a perfect habitat. Future. The future held anything and everything for her. And at this moment, in this second, the future was calling her.
She took a deep breath, confidence stormed her eyes as she rose on forelegs to let out a whinny that told all this land was claimed. Eclipse was queen. To keep the peace and harmony as so many before her had done. The Mustang shifted her weight as she touched down. This was the time of the lights. It was their time to shine, their time to be the best. Their time to show the world that accord would be well for everyone. And Eclipse would be the one to help them achieve that goal.

Lament of the Sea
He had been away too long. Poor Sapphire, poor Revelation. How could he leave them? But he knew that what he had done was needed. He was looking for his sister for crying out loud. She had been missing, missing for so long, with no sight or word of her anywhere. And still, despite his desperate searching, he couldn't find Sonata. What would his mother and father say to him if they knew that he had lost his little sister. He couldn't lose his little sister. He had lost Rose, and Triton, his mother and father. And he had just regained a love, and a son. He couldn't lose Sonata. Having just resurfaced from the hellish spiral he had been thrown down into for so long, he didn't want to return to that place. And now he was home, only to find that another had taken up his throne, the mantle, his crown, the crown that was carried by his father, and the one he had meant to pass on to Triton, and now to Revelation. But it was no longer his. Surprisingly, he wasn't upset. Well, not much. More resigned. He could see the fae that was now his ruler in the distance. He didn't want the throne back. No. But he wanted some hand in the ruling of the light lands. He couldn't completely quit the life he had been born into, the life that often threatened his from time to time. Lament heaved a sigh, before approaching the fae. He dipped his head to the strong figure, showing her respected. I see you have taken over my throne. I secede to you. However, I only ask that you grant me a place in the land I love, for my mate and my son. I won't leave them homeless. Nor can I truly leave the ruling of the light kingdom. It's the life my parents lived, and the life I've lived for too long to be shut out completely. I ask you this only. The large grey stag watched the fae with his dark brown eyes steadily, reading her expressions.

Another was on my land. I watched, not moving, as he came near me. Orbs watched, curious and yet guarded. When he spoke to me, his voice was…exhausted it seemed like. Weariness and fatigue seemed to etch his lines, his muscles. Everything. I relaxed slowly, but not all the way. This could be a ploy, this could be some ruse to tear me down. However, when he mentioned that he had ruled this land before, and I brought my crown toward the ground in respect to him. He had carried this land, and although he had left, I felt like he was still here, in some part. But what to do, what to do. He wished for a spot in the terra, for him and his family. Please, do not bow to me kind sir. I shall grant you this one wish you have, but I have one of mine own. You know this land better than I, and if you would do the duty of being part of my council, I would forever be grateful. However, I do like to know the names of those who live upon this land. I am Eclipse, and you? Cranium was brought up as I watched him, wondering of his decision. It seemed his whole ancestry lived upon this land, and to have it wrenched from beneath him, it probably did not help his situation any. I awaited his answer, calm, as the birds squeaked and squawked while soaring quickly away from the cold that was forming.

Lament was a little apprehensive as he awaited the new queen's answer to his request. He couldn't leave this windblown coastline. He could hear the gulls screaming as they swooped along the shore, and the sea breeze ruffled his pearly grey banner. His auds pricked, and a smile twitched his lips. Eclipse. A pretty fae, but, pretty as she was, she couldn't compare to his Sapphire, in his mind. He shifted his weight, smiling more as she asked for his name. My name is Lament of the Sea, Lament for short. My father, Caspian of the Sea, was king here, a long time ago, and passed the title to me. I am honored that you ask me this, and I accept it was gratitude. He paused for a moment, thinking over his next words. Glancing around, he took in the familiar layout of his home, and a true smile came to his lips. Purewater Cove is a special place. Being light ruler is a special position. I believe you will do well. Again, I am honored to be a part of your council, to aid you, should you so need it. Here Lament paused once more, unsure of what to say next. He wanted to find Sapphire and Revelations and tell them of what had happened. But he didn't want to seem rude, and just leave. He twitched a bit, leaning this way and that, thinking it over before he spoke once more. Do you require any service of me at the moment, my lady? I wish to find my family and tell them of the change, but if you need anything of me now, I will gladly attend to you.

The leaves brushed against each other lightly, the collage of mass autumn colors mixing and separating, creating a picture within the mind.The salty breeze blew her tassels across her painted hindquarters as calm amber eyes surveyed the stag near her. He was calm, docile, and held a regal demeanor that didn't demand respect as much as have a gravitational field and pulls it toward him. She listened to him, understanding him as he wished to leave her presence. Of course you may find your family. If I can be of any use, please just ask, although I don't know how much I really could be. And I am more honored to have you with me. I will not take anymore of your time. Go, search. I hope you are able to find what you are seeking. With that, she turned away from him to allow him to search. The land was what she was seeking. Before she could rule effectively, she needed to know what she had taken on. Within her new home, and then within the realm. Legs stretched out into a trot, the excitement of a new day within her reaches. She turned around quickly though, one thought occurring in her mind. Her voice rang out clear toward him, I do have one request Lament. Never call me my lady again, only Eclipse. She might be empress, but she was not into the whole formal titles. That put rank within the herd. Although she knew there needed to be a leader, she would rather it be felt like a family than a hierarchical area.
