Silverfall kicked up her heels, racing through the mountain forest with such delight that she whinnied with joy. It was good to be out of Ponyville, out in the wilderness, breathing the sweet scent of the mossy undergrowth. Bandit raced beside her, also enjoying their romp.

Silverfall and Bandit stopped at a small rivulet trickling down the moutain from the springs above. Sipping the cool water, Silverfall felt herself relaxing into the rhythm of the natural world. The sky was clear and the air crisp and she felt better.
There was a crackling of branches in the far woods. Then again, closer. And closer. Silverfall raised her head, ears tracking the noise. She remained perfectly still, calm, but curious.

Continued from her house in the Outer Edges
"Hi, I'm Paradise."

Distracted, Silverfall turned to the white pegasus.
"Oh, hello," she said, rather cheerily.

"What's your name?", the white sweet-tempered peg asked.

"You may call me Silverfall," the silver unicorn replied. "And this is my dog, Bandit." She nodded to the tri-colored shepherd. "And who might you be this far outside of town?"

"As I said, I'm Paradise. I actually live in the outer edges. I figured I would go for a little hike, or flight, rather, in the mountains." Paradise replied. She was starting to really hope that she was making a new friend, "How old are you?"

"Oh, well, nice to meet you, Paradise. I must have missed your earlier greeting." Silverfall bobbed her head. "Actually, I think I may have been distracted. No matter. I, too, have come here to get away for a while in the mountain forest." She then seemed to slip into thought for a moment. " I've seen 358...er...359 moons. Yes, 359. Or just over 27 suns, depending on how you count."

"Hmmm. Well, I've seen...actually, I don't know how many of either I've seen"

Silverfall laughed innocently. "Those living the best lives don't care about things like that, anyway."

"What makes you think you aren't living the best life you can?" Paradise asked

Silverfall flicked her ear, almost surprised at the question.
"Well, let's just say that some ponies spend their lives floating down the river faceup with their eyes on the stars...and others drift facedown contemplating the riverbed." Then thinking some more, she added, "I'm not as much a dreamer, as I like to think too much about the seriousness of things." She laughed. "Come, share a drink with me. The water is cool and sweet."
She bent to drink.
(OOC: By floating facedown, I don't mean dead. I mean there are two kinds of people in this world, those that live carefree and those that take themselves too seriously, lol.)

"Hmm....which would you say I'd be?"Par questioned, "and I'd love to take a drink."

Silverfall chuckled. "Well, only you can really say who you are. Everyone else's opinion..." she drifted then, contemplating the words as they trailed off in her mind.
Everyone else's opinion is insignificant.
She began again. "Everyone else's opinion is insignificant, so long as you know what's in your own heart. So long as you are true to yourself." She smiled to herself and took another drink.

The pegasus raised her head slightly so she could speak, "Well, then I'd say I'm the carefree sort. What are your powers, Silverfall?"
