Perhaps Viri’s assumption that everyone always needed something stemmed from life experience. As long as she had been alive she had been important. Everyone always needed something from her. Her father had even needed her. He used her as a pawn in his political game to get himself some peace and quiet. She had then become a queen, so very young, and then she had an entire sisterhood dependent on her. They needed protection and guidance. She had devoted her entire life to that. She had made them great, placed them at the head of an empire. Twice. She made her assumptions because she had, until recently, always been needed. Now, no one needed her. She was useless, her past exactly that; in the past. She was a shadow of the great mare she had once been. She had never needed anything. She had her control, she had her crown, she had her Valkyries. She had power. What more could she have needed? All of that was gone now though. She still had power; two elements with four levels and one with five. But as the rest of her life crumbled she no longer had the control she needed to put that power to good use. The wind around them howled, upset and angry because she was upset and angry. She could not make it be still, it was so linked to her emotions.

Her head tipped to one side, black eyes gazing relentlessly down her nose at the other mare. She wasn’t aware she had said anything amusing… ever. There was no call for laughter. She waited with patience while the mare considered her response. Well… at least she thought before opening her mouth. Verbal diarrhoea seemed a common plague amongst the inhabitants of Hoof Prince. Apparently it was very tricky to keep a hold on your tongue and talk actual sense these days. Baffling. The answer she finally gave made Viri really have to think though. There were so many things these days… With the wind whistling around them, she selected her blunt words carefully.

Nobody ever just talks to me for the sake of talking. They always have a reason or a need.

She paused, struggling to find an appropriate way to phrase her second answer. Struggling to find a way that would not anger and frustrate her more than she already was, and stir the wind up into an uncontrollable frenzy. It was only by not thinking about all that she had lost that she was holding it together as well as she was. The few times she had let it slip completely had not been pretty. Scythia’s landscape still bore the scars of her fury. With a small sigh she gave her answer very matter of factly, masking as much of the emotion she felt from her voice as was possible.

I need my life back.
