Nyx and Hex
Jun. 23rd, 2024 07:46 amIt was getting warmer as the season on this new world changed. By the time the sun was up and the dawn breeze had settled, it was bright and clear and tempted Hex out of the nest. He rose and stretched and looked around. Few were awake yet.
He wandered away to relieve himself and noticed something glinting in the sun off in the distance. He stared and studied until he was sure of 2 things- the glint had to be metal, and as the sun moved it lost the angle and Hex was left with only an idea of where he'd seen it.
He dashed back tot he nest to rouse Nyx.
"Do you feel like an adventure?" he asked excitedly. "I saw something on the horizon..."
He was practically vibrating with excitement. Exploration had been cautious and slow, survival much more of a priority. But Hex was one of the few here taking this in stride. He did sort of thing for fun.
He kissed Nyx's forehead, wet and smacking.
"Come onnnn..." he pleaded softly.
