VIVIANNA
Although Vi had heard his words, it had taken her a few more moments to realize what he had said. At first she was nothing but shocked but it quickly faded with a new sense of freedom. The mare felt like she could breathe again, that the chain that had been attaching her to this forest was now cut loose from its binds. Turning her gaze off towards where the herd would be, although she could not see them, she wondered what would happen once she left. Knowing they would be safe so long as Vercingtorix was ruling this land was good enough for her, although she hoped for their sake that he stayed.
Returning her gaze back to the stallion, Vivianna offered him a soft but genuine smile. It was the first she had ever given him, her eyes softening only momentarily before it all slipped away to resume how it had been before. The painted mare then stepped forward and reached her soft muzzle out to gently touch the stallion’s red shoulder to try and express her gratitude.
“Thank you, Vercingetorix, for allowing me this.”
Pulling away from him and the comforting scent he gave, Vi glanced towards the path that would take her to the shore. So many times she had looked upon it, her hope shattering and the darkening feeling pressing against her chest threatening to overwhelm her. But not this time, instead she saw it as an opportunity and Vi wasn’t about to let it go on by.
“I hope to see you again. But until then, I wish you all the luck you will need in this life time.”
Vivianna returned her eyes to the stallion to study him one last time before turning away and heading towards the shore and her new beginning.
