He was not happy about this. Atleast bjorn reason was what seemed legit. A stallion wanting more mares. But from what his father has said given it wasn't much was that Rougaru and him have been fighting for a few years now. It started out simple but seems to of blossom in to full out war. He also said to stick close To Havelle and the others and even to this Zjeena. He follows them to Paradise and he shakes himself off.
The mare who now announces herself as co queen and Zjeena and then goes into a huge long speach that almost bores the colt. But he is listening. His ears go back. Would any of them return to his father after that? His father was not the stallion at least any more that this mare discribed they must know this? Its all well said Zjeena, But he is not the same stallion you knew back then I think. He hasn't held any of us against our wills and he loves each of us fairly. He said this time remaining calm unlike when he had been stuck in the ridge. He learned a little to just speak your words but speak them calmly and keep your tone even.
I respect your want for us to know how he was to you and I am sorry he was that way but for the year i've been on this earth he has been nothing but caring and loving and shown that he'll fight for us till the end of the earth. Everyone makes mistakes. He has said nothing bad about you only that you two had a bad falling out and that mistakes were made. All he wants now is peace between our herds. He said and looks to each of them nudging Havelle and Balshazar for reassurance. He did not speak about Sabela he didn't know the mare, he knew she was Balshazar's mother. My father killed no one so please don't keep implying that he had any doing in my aunt's deathHe said calmly. I wish to return home as soon as I am rested, I may not be big yet but father is being watched by the wolves and I do not want him to be killed. He said lastly glancing at the others. Would they stay here? Would they not want to go home and atleast talk to his father more about this before making their final decision? Will they take this mare on her words and shun his father? His ears were back.. He understood this mare had been wrong by his father but it was clear to him how hard his father tried not to repeat that. |
