Lanya's Meadow

A cool breeze brings green scents to you from the sun-warmed meadow rolling away in all directions. Can that fluffy cloud floating alone in an azure sky really house a fairytale castle?

Shaded by some trees, you espy
[lanya] Lanya!

Lanya trots up.

Lanya murmurs, "'twasn't painted from life, actually."

You blink, fresh to the concept of a talking unicorn mare.

Lanya nuzzles you. No apples?
