East of Rushing Rivers lies Emerald Forest, where ancient trees shade much of the territory except for those rare patches where beautiful meadows, like treasures, are hidden.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The process had been quick. With the coming of dawn, her 5 hour labor had paid off. Standing serenely in front of Sinner's hidden cave, Ankh watches the Sun ascend. At her side, eagerly nursing, is a colt. His little body is a washed out, out, bark color. His mane and tail a deep ebony hue. A sooty buckskin roan son to add to the growing family.
A name hasn't popped into her mind yet. Ankh has just been enjoying the feeling of being a mother all over again. The idea of having something to protect and look over pleases her. Her emerald eyes tear away from the pink morning sky, and she looks upon her wonderful little boy.
Her mind wonders to Sinner, and she knows that he is around the forest somewhere. She often displaces herself from others during her pregnancy, and this time had been no exception. She had let go of the incident with Celeste, and she even accepts the white mare's presence, and that this means Sinner does not love her less. Ankh is even considering a friendship with the strange mare, Celeste.
After all, isn't this what a herd is. A tightly nit group of mares, headed by a stallion, and all thought of as family. Yes. This has been a great change for Ankh, considering she is used to mares being in charge. Having been raised by a feminist mare known as Sirenne, and collectively raised by mares in the Valkyries, you can't blame Ankh for wanting to dominate the situation. It's what she had been taught since day one.
***************
Belly full and content, the little tawny stag releases his source of delicious nourishment. Tossing his head and turning ever so slightly, The little colt looks around to see just what sort of new world he has been thrust into. Everything is coated in a marvelous hue, and as he looks upon his mother's eyes, the tawny boy sees the same color in them. Smiling and wobbling forward on unsteady stilts, the newborn colt reaches out to his mother to comfort.
In the blink of an eye, he whinnies and darts forward, trying his best to stay balanced and not fall again. Shacking his head and attempting a little buck, the young colt stumbles sideways and folds to the ground, snorting and shaking his head. Looking about to make sure no one saw, he makes quick to find his hooves once more.
Confident in his ability to stand, he rises slowly, and wobbles back over to Ankh, running his little nose along her belly and licking at her. Not a thought in the world that there is anyone else to see or even think about.
