Decided to do some arts of sorts- so some venty speedy art scribble thing of my Fawnling Esmake. She's carrying a fawn, but we can always call her fat, because I forgot her feather. She ate it. I apologize for my half assed back ground and everything. I am like; pft today.


A giant gum tree, at the end of its time swayed gently in the constant breeze that stroked at it's up most branches, the morning was peaceful, only just had birdsong filled the ears of the creatures whom made their home on the solid ground. Rays of sunlight slowly seeped over the horizon, warming the winter ground, giving promise to all of spring soon to come. Though for now, the island of Windborne was still under winter’s spell, cooler days, and in some places a blanket of snow covering snow grass and hiding meadows, creeks and streams frozen over.

For the dainty golden doe, the winter brought new experiences; her swelling middle seemed to surprise her every time she looked upon it with wide brown eyes. A bed of moss and rich grasses had suited her well for a nights rest, hidden amongst the roots the gumtree, the palomino doe had slept soundly, now as the morning light began to creep into her eyes she shook out her mane, a layer of dew covered her soft creamy coat. Yawning, she stretched out her gangly legs, arching her neck trying to shake sleep from her body.

Pulling herself to her hooves she looked around, her ears swivelling to catch any noise that may deem dangerous. Giving herself the all clear she wandered further away from her tree, her held high looking around, if anything were to suddenly appear and attack she wanted to be ready. Does were flighty things, but when a threat presented herself, Esmake might have grown wings. With graceful steps she walked out into the meadow, nibbling at sprouting grasses, lips tugging on the gentle plant life.
