A Mountain
Skidding down the rough mountainside
, you sit down, rubbing your ankles. Looking around, you see you are sitting in a small, well hidden scoop . Getting up, wincing, you scramble over to the nearby stream. Sitting down stiffly, you splash cold water on your face, and drink some for yourself. Feeling refreshed, you sit back on your heels, thinking. What is this place? Nothing else in this valley is so cold and ...an cold! Just then, and icy blast knocks you over. "Stupid cold..and cold..and colder" you mutter darkly, scrambling back up. Peering around some of the larger rocks, you notice a lone willow-wood sign right on the edge of a cliff. Cursing your own curiousity, you carefully sidle over to it.
Sweating slightly, partly from fear, partly from the effort, you continue sidling to the cliff's edge. Finally you reach the sign and begin to read..........
"Welcome to the ruins of the old castle; We have reserved the old scoop for an Snowcat kitten from Typatha Mount! We wanted to get one, and get one we did! Go visit her!" grinning, you wonder about this 'Typatha Mount'..it sounds interesting. Peering around, you feel your heart jump to your throat. You nearly walked off the cliff! Gingerly, you look down. It's a looooong way down. And the jagged rocks at the bottom look none too friendly. Slowly, you back away. When you are safely away from that forboding cliff, you nearly collapse on the cavern floor, when you hear a soft pattering behind you. Somehow, you get your eghausted body to turn around. Why, it's a smallish catlike creature!
It pads toward you on almost silent feet. It it so cute! It has..well, wings, and several odd markings, but still! It's so sweet! It climbs into your lap, purring. Finally, she produces a noise, a small, yet deep voice. "I am Ivni'Ikane, a Snowcat. I have a specil mutation...my wings. My name, in your tongue, means 'Winged Ice'" she says, padding off into the cavern, but returning when you call to her. "I forgot to tell you! There is another kitten here..would you like to meet her?" She asks, her eyes sparkling. You nod, following her stately progress into the depths of the cavern. After a time, you come upon a part of the cavern that glows with a soft light. Squeezing past the large rock, you see inside is a room seemingly perfect for a small cat! It is standing on the branch of a potted tree, eyeing a toy mouse with interest.
She looks up at you, and hops off her branch. "Heya! I'm Torn Sunset, of Torn Flame x Swirled Sunset. Ivni here is my caretaker until I get big enough...to POUNCE!" She says, leaping at the mouse, and Ivni grins.
As you reach down to pet her, a fierce whinny from the cave entrance makes you freeze and look up.
Why, it's a...a...a gazel! It snorts at you, her eyes narrowing in anger. "Ia Eeani~Bianu, Ice Colors, a Snow Gazel from Sirah's Realm, though I was recieved in a trade. Leava Snowcat alone nows, or you get bapped!" she cries, lowering her horns. Stepping back, you try not to smile. "I'm sorry...I meant to no harm to her. " B
idding farewell to the two odd creatures, you grin, waving to them, when you nearly walk inot twin tall poles with some odd looking writing carved on them. After reading them through, you continue on continue on....
Sweating slightly, partly from fear, partly from the effort, you continue sidling to the cliff's edge. Finally you reach the sign and begin to read..........
