Pearl-Rah looked around the castle as the bounded up the stairs and to ground level. She spat at the old stone floor as she left the building. She felt the ground sink beneath her feet, she gagged, why was the ground so soft. She was so used to the nice stone brick ground with soft, wonderful pads of moss. She continued forward, warily glancing around. Why did SHE have to work what was the point in being the Rah if she still had to work, ugh! She groaned, walking along the mossy trail to the water. She looked at her reflection, gorgeous, beautiful, outstanding, breathtaking and just flat out stunning. She knew she was likely the prettiest hare on the island, probably in the world. She curled her lip in disgust and the murky green water that tainted her face. Back in the castle there were actually mirrors, even though most of them were broken they were still better than this… GREEN.

She continued to hop along the shore thinking back; there were footsteps, and Pearl was applying cream to her ears “oh uh… ma’am” came a nervous whimper “what is it dear” the Rah responded, concentrating on her ears still “well, there’s something the Warren would like you to do-” she was cut off with a “one moment” and soft sigh could be heard. Pearl licked her teeth looking in the old, cracked yet polished mirror as her teeth shined “yes, yes i can-” the visitor’s ears perked up “-show my lovely face to the young rabbit folk” she said smiling wide into the reflective surface. The groan that that this recieved could be heard echoing through the halls. Pearl opened her eyes as insects buzzed around her ears she swatted them away and spoke to nobody in a mocking tone “no ma’am, you’re uh, face is uh, really nice” then smiling “oh, i think you mean yes, as that’s all i have time for” “oh uh, i guess instead of you’re uh, face showing. You’ll have to do your warren duties” “oh, but dear, those are my warren duties” “no, like chores” “aha, dear, i’m the rah, i don’t do “chores” it won’t do anyone any good for me to dig tunnels or scavenge trinkets“ she had replied with a forced smile, as the rabbit was taking up her valuable time, then speaking in the most annoying, mimicky, mocking voice she could “oh, but the rah has to look out for the warren, and the only way to do that is to go on patrol” that rabbit’s satisfied face was burned into her mind.

Pearl didn’t even know what she was looking for, a threat to the warren. Like what? Nothing much, dangerous lived there. If it did they could just fight if it attacked. The insects where a pest but nothing dangerous, a few carried diseases, but that’s not what she was hoping to find. She saw a splash in the water “AHA” she spun around to look and a massive frog stared back, almost as big as the frowning Rah. she turned around and heading back to the castle
