Description A long, long time ago when the world was still young and full of magic, back when man was just barely exploring the world outside of its cave, there existed a beautiful being made completely of water.  She was wonderful, kind, beautiful, and ever changing in shape and temperament as you would expect from a creature made of water.  When she was happy, she would rain down gentle tears of joy upon the land.  When she was sad, she would still rain down on the land, but the rain was far less forgiving.  In the cold winter, when all the animals and forest creatures left her alone for greener pastures, she was lonely and her heart would freeze, raining down forgiving flakes of snow or raging flurries depending on her opinion of the animals abandonment of her.  She lived out her life like this from a wonderful spring of sparkling water deep within the forest.  The spring, like her, seemed to be ever changing always shifting its currents position and shape in tandem with its watery resident.  She seemed to like this about her spring. It was as ever changing and imperfect as her.  The one bad thing she could say about it, was that it kept her secluded from the rest of the world.  Sure, random animals would visit her spring in the warmer seasons, but she wouldn’t consider any one of her forest friends actual friends.  Sadly in the cold months, well let’s just say, she was a little lonely.  As for the humans that dotted the land, they rarely could find her spring and if they did, due to the nature of the spring, they could never find it again.  The humans did interest her. They seemed to be as dynamic as her. They were so very different she could never tell what would happen when one showed up.  It could be anything from shocked terror, to admiration, to plain old lust for her beauty.  Regardless of her interest in these creatures, they, like the animals, would never consider her friend. They saw her as too different from themselves to even consider her capable of their permanent interest, though she did enjoy the attention they gave her while it lasted.  Honestly, the only permanence in her ever changing life was her one and only friend.  A small grey bunny who always seemed to stay close by her side.  Its not like they had any deeper relationship than a small forest creature and an all powerful water being living next to each other constantly.  But its just with all the change always happening in her life, it was nice to have some consistency. She didn't even bother to name the rabbit because she knew she would just change the name later, but its constant company was good enough for her to fall in love with it.  It was the rock of stability in her ever changing temperamental river.  So this was her - a moody weather controlling water nymph in an even more ever changing spring with a weird relationship with a nameless rabbit.  You would think her life was amazing with all the change, but, in actuality, it was just lonely and boring.  With nothing staying the same, it was very hard for her to focus on something long enough for it to be interesting.  That all changed one day though when the grey bunny, her rock, disappeared.  At first she wasn’t surprised. After all, change was a constant part of her life, but quite quickly she realized that she couldn’t live without him.  She needed him to be there to hold onto something permanent in her chaotic life.  So she was forced to do something she hadn’t done in a long time.  Leave her spring.  It was a necessary step to find her bunny and get back to her life.  This was going to be a long journey.
