Vesti looked up when Badr approached. She was not entirely surprised that he'd show up - finally. She hadn't seen much of him throughout the winter. She still wasn't sure how the felt about the Salem King. She wasn't sure if she'd ever figure it out.
You'll figure it out eventually. After all, you're stuck here. On this piece of hell. Oh shut up. she argued in her head. The Voice had been getting very snarky in the last few weeks as her stomach at expanded. There were days when she felt like she was going to explode. Ugh. How to answer his question?
"Uncomfortable," she settled on finally. She turned to the other mare. She hadn't met her before. She nodded, apparently Badr had been busy this last season. She noticed the other mare was fat too. She had to wonder exactly what was going on and when this would stop. She reached around to nibble at an ich on her flank. She couldn't quite reach it because of her belly.
When will this stop? She wondered to herself. She looked back at the other mare. Her name was strange.
"Yeah," she said. "That's my name. I'm the crazy one. Just going to throw that out there."
She had come to that conclusion some time ago. She didn't feel like fighting it either. She didn't feel like fighting in general. It was pointless and stupid and it cost too much. She hadn't fought the Sea when it took her. She had fought Badr when he'd stolen her and it had nearly killed her. It was just easier to take what came.
No, it was safer.
Vesti was a survivor after all.
