Anemos (Wind in Greek)
▪ History: (Well more of a short story...)
Anemos raised his head slowly and sniffed the air in uncertainty. His eye lids slid down over his grey eye and he forced them open again. He shook his head the golden string dripping off of his black antlers making a faint pinging sound. He sniffed the air once more trying to figure out what the odd smell was. Something landed softly on his nose. His eyes slowly opened more as a chilly breeze wrapped around him. Finally his eyes were fully open and he saw what was coming from the sky and trees. Snow. He stood up his long, fluffy gray tail drooping to the ground.
Most would feel cold in this weather even if the winds didn't pick up. Still, Anemos felt nothing. His long, think coat of lighter and darker grays kept the cold out. the only thing that was hard about winter was the lack of food. Still he knew that him and his father would survive. They always made it, together. The gray Whelkon stood on long, majestic gray legs. His black hooves shinning against the now what ground. He looked back at his father who was more tan and black then gray. He however was still asleep.
Anemos thought about this for a bit. He could go out by him self to get some water from the stream and come right back. Or he could wait until his father woke up and they would both go. He shook his grey head and smaller black antlers. He would go alone. with any luck he'd be back before his father even got up. So, he turned and started through the now washed out trees.
Even with winter hear the forest had never looked better. It was still regal and beautiful. Cold and crisp. Most of the trees and gone to sleep, as he had be taught. They lost all the leave they had and went to sleep. That is how they survived the winter. All the sleeping trees gave the forest a peaceful and quiet look. The only trees that were still lush was the pines. The pines stayed the dark green color they were all year. Snow, rain sun and wind. Still, they looked calm and tired as the snow hung onto their hard leaves.
Anemos looked up and smiled. Finally a small stream lay out in front of him. He looked around and realized he didn't know much about this part of the forest. Thinking nothing of it. he walked to the stream. Before looking down at the crystal clear water he looked back. His hoof prints were still there, he was fine. He turned his attention back to he water and noticed how hard it was. Just over night the small water bed had frozen over. Huffing he positioned him self so he could try and brake the ice.
He reared pounding his sleek black hoved against the ice. Soon cracks danced along the surface. He pounded again and again and then with a defining crack that rang through the trees, the ice shattered. He smiled at his own strength and bent down to drink some of the cold icy water. He stopped and realized some of the cubes of ice were still in his way. He quickly moved them with his black and gold horse. As quickly as he had moved the ice he begun drinking. But while he payed attention to the stream and only the stream he missed the winds picking up. When he did look up it was to late, the blizzard had moved in.
The cold, crisp winter winds that pounded against Anemos' sides didn't bother him. He could feel them but they took up none of his thoughts. His worry was getting back to his father and the rest of his heard. the wind had kicked up the now covering his tracks with a new layer of snow and ice. He looked helplessly around trying to find them again. Finally he decided to just move back into the forest were there was more shelter.
He moved through the trees. the once clam, quiet forest seemed to be replaced with viscous trees that were out to get him. In his panicking state all the trees looked the same. Ever pine looked at mean as the next and ever pile of snow was new. His tracks were no where. They were out of the question, he knew it was pointless and futile to try. So he just walked. he tried to remain at a clam pace but still sometimes he found him self starting to trot. He forced him self to slow to an unwanted walk and tried to catch his bearings. He looked hear and there but with the wind picking the snow up and the snow falling from the sky he couldn't help but feel lost in a world of white.
Sudenly movement caught his eye, or left eye. He turned so he was facing it. Nothing. All around him was silent. he was about to turn and start walking again when something moved right in front of him. He stood there for a bit then realized it was coming to wards him. The young Whelkon wished his father was there to tell him what animal it was but no he was alone. And he couldn't help but be scared. He began backing up slowly and soon found that his fluffy tail and rump had run into something. He spun around and felt every bit of stress leave him.
"Father..." He crocked softly. He looked up at the large tan and black elk. Anemos gave him a small mile but the older and wiser Whelkon turned and started back into the forest. The young, Anemos followed behind happily. He looked back once more to see if another member of the heard was there. There was nothing, then out of the corner of his eye he saw movement. A shape stood up turned and walked away. Anemos turned to his father to ask what it was but realized, that his father never saw it. He closed his mouth and followed silently happy to go back to the heard.
