Hidden Light [Pixie]

Path stood looking down at the dense forest that lay below her hilltop. She had a thing she did, something Sparkle would undoubtedly call a game but something she thought of as a dance. If anyone ever found out about her dancing she'd be miserable, always having to face the questions and knowing that she couldn't bend her rules of propriety and tell them to mind their own business. That's why she chose the most remote areas she could.
Grinning, she trotted down into the humid cover of leaves and stopped just at the edge of the light, the smile on her face enough to stop most male hearts because of its rarity and unique tilt that belied the spark which was her soul. She gathered her legs under herself and lunged forward with a toss of her main, soaring onto the next little patch where the branches were thin enough to allow undergrowth. The ring on her tail glowed softly in the dimness, flickering as she reared back to keep away from the deeper shadows and pranced to the next spot, landing with grace and power. The twists and landings truly did resemble some sort of dance and the throaty laugh that rang from her was the music she moved by as it reverberated off the trees. This was her hidden joy, the secret light of the days when she needed to be away from the rules of society.
