She somberes on. Her once pristine white wings now covered in mud, dirt and sand. Her dark black skin has a mix of mud and blood. Her violet eyes look weary and tired, she opens and closes her mouth like a fish.

She hasn't seen water for whet feels like forever. Her legs are tiered and want to give out. "No. Not here, not now." She thinks.

After a bit longer she can see an oasis in the distance, her eyes light up but she doesn't have the energy to run there so she choses not to move any faster.

She finally gets there. She falls to her knees at the edge of the water. Cupping her hands to take a drink, at times like this she's very glad she shaved her hair. After a bit of gulps of water she finally looks at what's around. She see's a one person camp not far away, she start to walk there.

She reaches it "Hello?" She strains out cringing at her horse voice. A person wearing night clothes comes out, "Hello. What do you need?"

He seems like he just woke up. "I'm quite lost as you can probably tell"

"Yeah, your red and dark clothes don't look like you ever been here," he stated scratching his stomach " so what that have to do with me?"

"I was hoping you help me get to a town or something?" she said with a hopefully look on her face.

He sighed. " sure. You gotta help with what I do in return." He turn around to start walking "Got it?"

"Yes!" She said quite thankful that the person she came apon was so nice, most would ask what was in it for them.

"You need to clean up and change out of that dirty outfit, k?" Before she could respond he said "What's you name?"

"Mk'ara"
