Perrie's smile widened slightly. "Yes. I love the animals on the surface, but I haven't met many who can talk. It's very different down here."
Perrie's smile widened slightly. "Yes. I love the animals on the surface, but I haven't met many who can talk. It's very different down here."
The deer nodded "different but all together familiar." She led her down a crastaline path made of turquoise and rubies into a small Glade where a small waterfall fell into a ring of saffire trees
Perrie followed willingly, still taking in the beauty here. She walked slowly, keeping up with the deer but doing her best not to miss anything.
She bend down and drank water from the Glade before settling down "he's find of you,"
She turned to raise her eyebrow slightly. "Really? I mean, that's… interesting." She ran her fingers through the water, swirling it and rippling it away from her.
"it is. He hasn't been interested in anyone. Except you, recently." She glanced around as crystal birds and woodland creatures ventured closer.
"I take it he doesn't get a lot of visitors down here?" She lifted her hand out of the water, examining the droplets before she wiped them off on the hem of her dress.
She shook her graceful head "No. Except for the dying that comes here. No not many living visit here." She glanced around, flicking her ears to catch small noises
Perrie nodded, her mood dimming slightly. "Well then.. I suppose I should find my way out. I don't belong here."
"like I've said before. He has an interest in you. You're the only one who comes back time and time again to come see him." She noted
Perrie bit her lip, now unsure of herself. She started walking once again, following the path that lead down out of the crystalline place and back to the main portion of the realm of the dead. She walked slowly, not wanting to venture away from this place.
The deer stood and followed "if you must leave, may hI sow you.one more thing?" She asked, trailing behind perrie
She paused, turning back. "Of course. What is it?" She shifted her weight slightly.
The deer jerked her head to a glass building like structure in the distance. It was covered in glass flowers and vines"There." She made her way fowards, stepping lightly
Perrie twirled around on her heel to follow the deer, tilting her head and trying to get a better view into the flower covered building. An unconscious smile hung on her face as she marveled at all the things she'd never seen down here.
"he build this after the first people came to remind them of the night sky." She explained, leading her onwards to a path leading to the building
Perrie's step sped up slightly as she started to understand what she was about to see. "He really cares about the people here that much?" As she said the words, she immediately regretted them. "Not that anyone would think he wouldn't care."
"but they do either way, don't they? They think of him as uncaring an cold." The deer shook her head and sighed "they don't understand."
Perrie ducked her head back under her hair, feeling guilty for bringing it up. "Do you know him well?" She asked, to break the silence.
She nodded "we were here before the first people came. We showed him how to use the land to creat the best living conditions for his citizens. We also showed him things that would never change, like the woods. You met a friend of ours their. We know the good and the bad of Hades. And he knows ours. We respect each other." She said, trying to explain their relationship with ruler of the underworld "we find balance."
"That's amazing." Perrie breathed, glancing around once again, noticing the little details that seemed to be there for a purpose. "On the surface, it's different. People were there first, and they… tamed the world, I suppose. Except for the parts they couldn't reach, or didn't think they wanted. Those are the only parts I've really explored."
"and those are the parts that people don't understand. The creatures have seen what people have done to others and fleed"
Perrie nodded sadly. "Anyway, what were you going to show me?" She asked after a moment of silence.
Thanks deer nodded, snapping away from her thoughts. "Ah, yes, The planetarium." She nudged open the glass stained door and headed inside, her crystalline hooves making a light tapping sounds on the floor
Perrie slipped in after her. She spun around, taking in the whole of the glass tinted light and the careful design on each wall. "This is amazing!"
