Story about this plumie: (impress me in 500-700 words)
res
Dark limbs stretched towards the clouded sky, their branches entangled to form a
canopy above the ground. Leaves had scattered themselves across the earth and dirt
paths, in beautiful hues of oranges and reds. Autumn had arrived, yet Winter was almost
upon the small forest. Birds chirped from within the tangled branches, and the occasional
howl resounded from the darkness.
There was just one sound that sounded rather out of place... paw-steps, accompanied by
the sound of a jingling bell.
It was none other than a plumerian; to be exact, his name was Ebb. Normally sentient creatures
would not travel along the paths throughout the woods, or really, they didn't even come close to
the eerie atmosphere. Although contrary to many beliefs, there was nothing to fear. All that
resided in the forest were animals, and most of them were the sort that caused no harm.
A grin had etched itself onto the dark plumerian's muzzle; the whole place screamed adventure,
and he was keen on discovering what made others so wary of the woods. The familiar sound of
his bell was rather soothing, and as a plus, it was rather effective in keeping those scary bears
away! [even though there weren't any...]
Without warning, the loud call of a crow resounded from a nearby clearing; cruel and haunting,
almost like the screech of a banshee. On instinct Ebb's hackles rose, and he spun on his paws to
face where the noise had come from. Bright blue irises wide in shock, the plumie couldn't help
but slink forwards. There was a sense of mystery, almost like an invisible string that was pulling
him in whatever direction it desired.
"W-who's there? Anyone?" In mere moments he had been reduced to a pile of fluff, allowing his
gaze to travel around warily. No answer came.
Instead he stumbled out into the clearing, brushing aside random debris with his paws. Soon his
mouth gaped open, head tilting upwards to stare at the beauty standing tall just before him. It
was a tree of great stature, large branches spanning towards the heavens. Despite the season it
was abundant with leaves, it's gnarled roots springing from the ground to create small shelters.
All in all, it was a rare sight. Such a beauty inside a dreary forest such as this was mostly unheard of.
Then, something managed to catch Ebb's attention. Diverting his attention from the tree, his
eyes landed on a book; which was something that didn't really fit in with the scene. As he began
to pad forward he examined the edges of the book, and how old it seemed to be. And someone
had the nerve to leave it in the middle of nowhere! Making sure to remain delicate with the
ancient looking book, Ebb flipped the cover open, eyes excitedly scanning over the title.
'The Tales of the Forest of Azmaroth'
In no time at all Ebb began to read the book, transferring himself from reality to fiction in a
moments notice. Now in his own mind, he imagined himself battling ferocious beasts, and running
through thick foliage to escape forces that were much out of his control; the typical things you
would find in a children's storybook.
What seemed like only a few minutes later, although almost three hours had passed, the sun began
to dip beyond the horizon. Upon looking up, Ebb could begin to spot fireflies, which stood out much
like the eerie will-o-wisps that he had read about in the story. The lightning-bugs glowed in a way
that others could not, and despite the chilling feeling he got, it made the scenery ten times better.
That silly little grin wormed it's way onto his face, and Ebb found himself bounding off to chase the
fireflies. After his actions the book tumbled to the ground; a single sentence standing out in bold.
"And that was the elder tree that was home to the spirits of the fireflies."

She came from the heavens, Many say,
She came with a plan, wishing to stay,
My daughter of the night, the sky above us high,
With stars in her eyes, it must be nothing but a lie,
I remember clearly they day she was born, how she shone in the night so young,
But many think she is just like us, trying to sing a song to be sung,
I know better, my child Chaska, as light caresses you through,
That your heart is kind,that that you have love in your heart too,
She can be stubborn like the sun who refuses to leave the moon,
Because she feels life leaves us much too soon,
I can not blame her for her hunger for knowledge and truth, As i do too,
But her's must be found by herself, for she believes only she knows what is true,
She has grown to love the sky and wind that fills the air with it's smell of the sea,
She says that if that if they did not work together, where would be?
Such a philosophy she has in mind,
Her thoughts seems shes always in a bind,
I hope one day she finds her star in the sky,
So she never tells me again love is but a lie...
