you call me out upon the waters. Posted on March 21, 2021 at 06:16:33 AM by N.asa
N.asa is unaware that Himena is trailing her as she hugs the borders of Paradise and the Harbor. As she lay with her infant, she is reeling with the emotions of what she has experienced. When the mare happens upon her, she isn’t sure how to respond. She has never experienced such emotion before. It was as if everything had come to an end so quickly. Before she was so overbearingly pregnant and then here was her baby. The transition was remarkable...daunting, and scary. Her ears tip to the mare as she introduced herself. ”I am N.asa. The Harbor was my home...though it is now home to another.” A sadness sweeps through her features as she recalls losing her home to another. Her time in Salem proved a mistake. Was it pride or guilt that forbade her from returning to the Desert? She did not know. The ebony mare carefully regards the tobiano. Her features soften to little Alpha. “Hello,” she offers. The tobiano is a welcome distraction to her aching body. It is only then her ears catch a soft bleat in the distance. She raises her dished face catching the scent of blood. At first, she presumed it was her own birth until the scent mixes with Himena. A soft whicker slips from her lips in acknowledgment to the little bleats she hears from the forest. She looks at Monster confused, ”Do you hear that?” She tucks Kaari close to her side as she follows the calls of a foal. She slows her approach as the noise grows louder, unsure if Monster has chosen to follow. She isn’t prepared for what she happens upon. The iron smell in the air is overpowering. She is too late. ”Oh Himena...” She coos to the still form of the mare. Her nose gently touches the mares cheek as a single tear slides down her dark face. She averts her gaze to the fresh foal that huddles close to the still body of her mother. Sadness fills her features as she regards her carefully. What a world to be born into. ”Come little one.” She says quietly. She could only imagine the little girls confusion.
