One Jewel: Diamond in a Tiara [Video | Water Trough]

[destinedforrock]

[A rippling image shows on the network. Someone has connected on the surface of water. The connector's voice comes across clearly - it's a lilting voice like a young woman's - but if you try and try to make out what the image is, you'll find it most recognizable as the face of a white horse, leaning into the water, head slightly turned to get a good look with those wide-set eyes - mouth moving with the words.]

Hello?

I think I'm still not quite clear on a few things... What was all of that about "were-wolves" in the so-called Dead District of town? ...What a name.

I do hope that problem has been contained! It has, hasn't it? I'm a bit - confined - where I live, you see, and if there is any reason that I should have to keep watch for any... wild beasts, stalking around my master's home, well, I'd certainly like to know -- especially what with there being two foals living here!

[There's a scratching sound, the horse pawing at the ground before it turns its head to look into the water out of the corner of its other eye.]

...This is how this works, isn't it? Tell me, tell me that someone can hear me. Any part of it!

Anyone!

Yes -- so I've seen. [Drawled out in almost monotone. What she's seen, really, is a single proof. But that arguably allowed it to self-emphasize.]

Do you mind? After what happened to that colt -- have there been any other... happenings along those lines that I might still be in the dark on?

[Oh? That's interesting -- and stands to reason. Whatever she saw, someone probably thought a horse as a witness wouldn't matter.

He doesn't ask, though.

And..."colt?" Is she talking about a horse, or...]

Do you mean Paul Ben?
