Adoption Den
It's a heart-wrenching sight when newborn foals are abandoned by their parents, and left to fend for themselves. A fairy tends to them while they are here and encourages mares without three foals already within her care to adopt one. The fairy can only do so much however, and in the end, a mother of the same species is best for the babe. Their pitiful cries are demanding, and often confused, just wondering where their mother is.

 And all the voices sound just like you
The words rolled off our backs and sound the same
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting
I hope that it's worth it but I'll never know
His mother had been gone a week now.
He'd had to start fending for himself, and still he wasn't very good at it. The food was bland and harder to chew - he ate slowly, and therefore hadn't gained the weight he should have. He wasn't malnourished, really, just skinny but to an outsider he probably looked more sickly than he was.
Mostly he was lonely.
Kinkade didn't realize how much he would miss his mother. She was a talker - and though when he was with her he hadn't enjoyed her fairytales (she'd tried to pass them off as stories of her past, but young as he was he still knew better), he now found himself retelling the stories out loud. He was alone often, and he was tired of it.
And so he'd found the Den. More specifically, the Playground fairies had led him to the Den after noticing his mother's absence for a period of time. Here, he learned, he would find a new mother - one that would care for him until he was ready to go out on his own.
