EDIT:Blended the heart and darkened the eye (;

This is my entry for 's story contest. I worked on this for over 7 hours, and the story just kind of came along as I worked. Which is wierd, but how I normally write. But anyway, I'll start writing now, and if it gets too long I'll sub it or something XD

Before I start:
Aela = a-luh

Story
Aela tossed and turned in her straw, but sleep evaded her still. All of her thoughts of the strange marking that appeared on her shoulder this morning battled for supremacy over the basic need of rest. The elders had questioned her about, interrogating her for hours, asking how she had received it, and who bore the other mark. Growing frustrated by her lack of answers, they had sent her to her chambers in the palace where she had remained for the rest of the day. From her window she could hear the town horses talk of her. She overheard their unconcealed gossip about how the young princess had gotten the mark, but yet the king, her betrothed, had not. It was from the gossip, not from her vision, that she learned the mark on her shoulder was the kingdom heart. The kingdom heart appeared on the shoulder of the eldest princess of the kingdom at the same time it appeared on the stallion to whom she was to marry and rule with. The gossip was no stallion was confessing to having the mark - which was to be expected, as the current self-made king would have him exiled, or worse. Aela turned and looked at the place she thought the mark would be, trying to wonder who shared it with her, when she heard hushed voices along the hall to her room.
"..Gaia.. we can't do this..its treason.."
"no, it would be treason if we didn't, dung-brain! Besides, the princess is blind, it won't be that hard to nap her"
As they continued to argue, Aela slowly stood and silently made her way to the back door of her sleeping room. Closing her eyes for a moment, she was filled with a sudden certainty, a feeling of security. She breathed in slowly and felt the embers of inner sight begin to burn inside of her. Feeling the flames of her gift, she began galloping toward the Oglean forest. A sort of sixth sense guided her through the brush, helped her avoid trees and rocks, leading her toward an unknown destination. Her second heart beat in rhythm with her hoofbeats as she galloped through earth, air, and water in search of her secret prince charming.

Sorry if its a little long ^^'

P.s. love the mane, right?
p.p.s. totally the best manip I've ever made
