Somewhere off in the distance she heard the cry of a frightened horse but she payed it no mind, for it didn't interest her. Her mind was elsewhere, that was until she felt something slide across her leg. She sat up slowly, terrified to see what she had already guessed. She jumped high into the air with a tremendous scream tagged onto one word and one word only. "SNAAAAAAKE!!!" She shook it off and drew a small dagger that her father ordered her to carry for protection. "I hate snakes." She hissed as she watched it move away in the grass. With a sigh of relief she replaced the dagger in it's sheath among the folds of fabric that made up her skirt. A chill passed up her spine as she got the feeling she was being watched but when she turned about, there was no one in sight. With a shrug she moved and found a new spot to rest after her fright.
