La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin

[Mami Tomoe]

A clearly exhausted Mami awoke in a beautiful field of pure green, with a gentle wind blowing against her face and long blades of grass tickling her legs. Her eyes fluttered open and she stood up on slightly weak legs... What had happened to her to leave her in this place? The last thing she knew, she had been in that border, that place of nothing but white. Well, there had been those people and the gate she had stepped through, but no evidence of any of those things could be seen nearby. In fact, she couldn't see the gate she had stepped through anywhere. So had someone taken her here?

That snapped Mami to attention. Her head perked up, her eyes narrowed and she glanced around. Seeing absolutely nobody anywhere, she thought she was alone... For now, at least. Though she might be unlucky enough to run into someone less than pleasant. Shaking aside her thoughts, Mami continued to look around in the hopes that perhaps she would find some direction to head in. She didn't remember anything quite like this place - She knew a place like this that had wind turbines near her school, but she hadn't seen anything as empty as this. It couldn't be natural, could it? Regardless, she saw something that, quite simply, answered her question. It couldn't be natural.

It couldn't be natural, because there was a giant tower-castle off in the distance. I could head towards that... But who knows what's inside?

Whatever the risk was of setting foot in there, it couldn't be greater than anything she had already done. Mami broke into a run, creating a ring of rifles around her in case she ran into any danger. Her Soul Gem shone brightly on her hairpin - Though out of curiosity, she held the hairpin in her hand and wondered just how long she had gone without a Grief Seed. Yet, still, her Soul Gem shone so brightly. It was odd... Maybe this place, whatever it was, kept her Soul Gem pure somehow? Mami swiftly clipped her hairpin (And Soul Gem) back in place in her hair and continued running. The fortress of sorts in the distance didn't seem to be getting much closer... So she had quite the walk to go on.

Next stop, Minas Tirith! Unless someone interrupts Mami on her little walk, she'll be arriving in the next post. Feel free to intervene if you so desire (And if you're in some random field in Camelot), but if not, that's fine too!

This isn't exactly my highest quality work, but after taking so long to post, I figured I just had to get something out rather than waste a few weeks refining a post to my usual quality. I'll be off, and if you chose to read this, thank you and/or I'm sorry, depending on your opinion on my writing!
