A gentle movement of hooves echoed throughout the royal lands of the Non-chalant. The green grass seem to be sprouting through the melting snow to reveal the coming of spring. In some areas, the grass was completely cleared of the snow. What had it been, a winter almost I had been in these lands?  I treasured the sweet smell of spring in the air, knowing it would be a time of prosperity for many equines; while to most darks it brought despair.

My walking pace was easy and relaxed. My tall figure's shadow loomed over a few shrubs that marked the area. My tail swished lazily in the gentle breeze. My nostrils flared open to smell the air. Hopefully the King enjoyed this time of year as much as I did. My locks rolled in behind me as I leaned forward. The land of Enola I could get used to since he and I were royalty. Still, I felt like something was wrong here with the fact I was a rogue.  But we seemed to have gotten along quite well actually, and for that I was thankful. It had been almost one season ago when we met. Though there was height difference between us, I could see through that like I had Crys. Fenrir was a good stallion to say the least.

Tossing my head I stood motionless, bidding my time carelessly. I'm not usually like this, but spring always brings a better side of me out. Letting out a deep breath, I began to retrace my tracks. My movements were more fluid than usual to show the fact that soon I would be coming into season. Following the scent of my mate (or I guess at least since being queen is still new to me), I moved in his general direction. The hills here was less hilly than the newly claimed Raiden Hills. If anything, Enola was unique and I could quite describe it's land scape to tell the truth. But I needn't worry about it now since before my hazel speckled blue eyes is the King himself.


Ello, King, I spoke. 'King' was my nickname for him.




My eyes opened from my memory. I remember being Queen with him and all the fond memories we held. Sighing, I let my head fall as I moved through the maze. The vines on the walls clung closely to it's victim, and with deadly thorns it was no use to climb over them. With my mane dropping over my hazel eyes, I continued to walk before I came out to a small pond. A few deciduous(sp?) trees grew around it, with it a willow tree.

I come to the side of the pond and put a hoof to it. MY eyes watched as the water rippled, disturbing my reflection. I knew that I had seen the Goblin King before. His eyes and form I had seen before, but where? Where? Opening my eyes, they flared with frustration as I rose up. My hooves came down with a thump, splashing water and mud over my body. I close my eyes tightly and I grunted. I hated this life just for the fact that most of my memories were gone. Or vision every now and then would come to me. How come I know your face and ways, but not the time and place?I asked myself as I returning to watching the disturbed water.

It's amazing how time came erase memories, whether you hold them close or not. And when you are immortal, there are thousands of memories to come and go from your thoughts. Such is the way of the Goblin King, his age untold to others, who knew how much he remembered of his past. More than the average equine for sure, but of course, some memories fade like everyone else. As of now it was pretty much amazing the king at how he had yet to grow angry with the grey mare, Sophie. By now he would have usually snapped at other equines, but she had not given him a reason to yet.

Silver crown tossed to try and clear his thoughts to continue his task of surveying the labyrinth, checking up on his maze in case repairs were needed to be made.

"Allo." The tiny voice was still heard by the King's heightened sense of hearing, and as he stopped to look down at the source, a little blue worm was looking up at him.

"Beg your pardon?"

"I said 'Allo.' Can't a worm say allo to his king?"

A brow raised to the tiny creature, though he wasn't surprised by the worm's attempt for conversation. After all, ruling over a kingdom meant far more than ruling just over a herd of horses. Jareth was in charge of it all, even for the tiniest souls. With a small nod of his muzzle, Jareth let a tiny smile come to his face.

"Hello...Now, you live in the walls of my labyrinth, correct?" The worm responded my nodding his head several times. "Have you seen anything around here that I should know about?"

The fuzzy blue worm shook his head this time before speaking again. "No sir, but I did see a lady head off that way. Grey like yourself, but different."

/Sophie?/ Jareth thought to himself, thanking the worm and bidding him a good day before following his direction to find the wandering mare. In one of the large clearings surrounded by many different labyrinth halls, he found her in a garden like area. Raising a brow at her random talking to herself, he stepped closer towards her.

"Not the best idea to be wandering around the labyrinth, the walls are always changing, and it's easy to get lost when you don't know your way..."

My ears flicked backwards towards. I turned my head around to see you standing near me. I bow my head to you slowly in respect but I do not answer. My eyes just watch you for a second before changing their position to the pond. I feel like I've known you before so much and that there was something important that we did, but what? You speak of words I know so well, and my eyes closed as I stand out in front of the pond. I've never known my way, and I only get some place if I've lost something or someone.... I speak, my words sounding a little harsh, but experience is true with them.

I quickly let out a deep breath and open my eyes. But I thank you for your concern, King Jareth, I add. My head glances at you briefly before looking out at the pond longinly. I want my mortal life... No.... I want to be dead, up in paradise with all my friends and soulmate as I watch my children grow up. That's why I gave my life up for that creature, so that it may live as I found peace. But fate is funny like that, isn't it? Or at least it's my karma.

How come every time I see you, I know that you and I have known each other on the other side? I said, a genuine question as I turned around to look you in the eye Goblin King. My facial expressions olemn, meaning I was serious. Or is it immortality playing a trick on me?

Her response kind of surprised him, but he let his face show no emotion whatsoever as she turned away to look back at the pond. Her questions on the other hand, got him to think for a moment.

How come every time I see you, I know that you and I have known each other on the other side? Or is it immortality playing a trick on me?

The other side? Ah, like the opposite of what his world was. A mirror, if you will, to the Underground, the reflection shown to be the Upperworld. Her last question caused him to smirk despite the serious look upon her face, shifting his weight and resting a hoof on its tip.


"Milady, I can honostly say immortality holds plays no tricks except to keep those who have it alive until the end of time, unless one of the few causes of death happen. But there are many ways to have known someone before, yet have not. Even in dreams people can meet others and speak before they actually meet each other in reality. Although I have a fairly good memory, I cannot remember every last detail. So maybe at some point, we have met in your past life."


Indeed, it was possible. What did it really matter though? Jareth didn't much care, considering he did not have 'friends', nor called anyone a 'friend'. So, Sophie was a friend, therefore even if they found out they knew each other from before, all it would do would ease her frustration at recognizing him from somewhere...
