You step into the garden. A wide, curving branch forms and archway twined with large, pink flowers and vines, probably ivy. The soil under your sneakers is firm and a healthy shade of brown. Without a thought, you walk through, and look around. You are on a balcony. It's mostly marble, and lined with many plant hangings in full bloom, and ferns and flowers grow in quantity. A large fountain with a unicorn in flight carved in it spouting turqouise water produces a soft laughter. A marble bench nearby houses a small bowl of fresh greens and bright red berries. Next to it stands a lovel young unicorn mare, daintily eating and absently ruffling her bright wings.
Your eyes widen and a warm feeling fills your heart, a feeling of love, appreciation, honor, so many things at once, that you drop to your knee and bow to the mare, feeling unworthy of her presence. She looks up, her firey mane ascading majestically down her chest like a brightly colored waterfall. She looks surprised, and when she sees your kneeling, she shifts uneasily, her unusual tail whipping restlessly. Seeing your startled look, she smiles. "Do not fear me, I would never harm you. I am Ella'Rhiannoc, or translated to yuor tongue, Brilliant Colors. I am the daughter of Black Magyck and WildFire," She tells you in a deep, ringing voice. You shiver expressively. She nods stiffly, and you realize she can't be very old, not much older than you, a teenager, but in....horse years. She whistles an odd tune, and a doorway appears in the huge fountain. With a flick of her tail, she dissapears through it, into some unknown domain. Feeling uncomfortable, you leave.
