QuillDog: To Slumber and To Death

Description

Finished unicorn-inspired design for Larkathewolfofheaven ! She has requested that I add a story, so here's the one I've come up with!

A young quilldog was born near and resided near the fringe of a magical woodland. One day, bravehearted and full of vigor, the QuillDog ventured into the shadowy depths of the mysterious forest, much to it's parents' worry and dismay! After exploring the wood for several hours, the poor pup found itself quite lost as the sun was fading over the hillside quickly. Ho\|ling and crying, it was too far into the woods to be heard by its parents. Crying and trembling, it swiveled ears towards the nocturnal sounds of the woods around it with fear.

Off in the distance, the QuillDog spotted a soft glowing light; nearly indistinguishable from its surroundings. Cautiously, and with no other choice really, it traveled towards the light. After cresting the forested hillside, it was surprised to find a foreign, mysterious massive beast laying on its side-- a silvery white unicorn, nearing death. Filled with compassion and worry, the small QuillDog sauntered up to the beast without fear, prodding and pushing its nose and paws softly at the creature in an attempt to wake it. Unable to do so, it curled up against its frame, offering its warmth and presence. One lulled off to sleep; the other, to death.

With the morning sun, the dying unicorn was nowhere to be found-- no trace of it, not even tracks! Baffled, the QuillDog was reminded of the rumors his parents told him about the creatures of the forest, and how mysterious they can be. Suddenly, he realized various changes about him: a weight upon his head-- a large horn that glowed and pointed his way out of the woods, a tangled mane of various hues, a mystical tail and cloven hindfeet! The QuillDog marveled at these changes for a long moment, before looking out across the forest to catch the split-second glimpse of something.. something that seemed familiar.
