"Whoa" he said while his eyes widened in amazement. He found himself looking at the waterfall, the angle of the sun making the water sparkle, and a small rainbow bend from his side to the other. With a big goofy smile he hopped onto the stone in the water and then made his way across the others that stretched to the other side. In a cartoon gag a chibi version of himself tripped on one stone and when he reached the last almost fell in the water while flailing his arms around in a circular motion. eventually he fell to the ground past the final stone and ends the gag by standing up breathing in huge gulps of air.
"That was close." he managed to say in between gasps. he starts laughing like crazy as soon as he catches his breath. During this plops onto the ground his arms supporting him and his hair falling in front of his eyes. "Hmm if anyone back home saw me now that would think I lost my mind, but maybe I am going crazy. Oh well if I'm going nuts then it's been a long time in the making."
(Ugh I hate making openings. too much trouble.)
From the shadows, a shadow drew itself into the light, so that Terebeniors' shape shifted and swirled. Gingerly he approached, not wanting to frighten the creature he'd seen gamboling by the river side.
Terebenior had to wait for the creature to speak, he was himself empty and shapeless, but could become anything, once he was given something to start with, even a word. He beleived what he transformed into, is what those he met, deserved to meet.
Still, warmed to the core, he held back, wanting their chance meeting to be a glad one. He watched, the little one was staring at the waterfall. Terebenior had never stopped to notice, this is how it was with him.
