Live through this lie


Was I left behind?
Someone tell me, tell me I survived.



I was not expecting to see Samhain today, or any day really, as he appeared to rarely be around as of late. I took note of this behavior but decided early on it required no immediate action. Samhain may think he was good at hiding his feelings, but they were readily apparent to me. He was young and going through something. His life had been uprooted and his sister was all that remained of what was once a robust family. He was angry -- I would be too -- and he was too young to understand that this was just the way life works. He would be uprooted again. His sister would grow up to be a adult mare capable of making her own decisions that would eventually not include her brother. He will learn and he will mature the more he endures. So when the painted stallion approaches us in a calm and relaxed fashion, I merely bob my head and nicker to him. He's welcome in our masculine circle. We were, after all, the only stallions who live here. It was good to see him.

"You smell like your father." I say in a playful manner, but still a sly quip to let him know I can tell he'd been to Tinuvel recently. Again, this didn't bother me. He knew he could come and go as he pleased. I had hoped he would settle into a role where he could assist me in managing the herd. But perhaps he needed to get more of this youth-driven angst out of his system. Samhain offers to be an escort to the Dunes and my gaze settles on Paradiso, curious of how he would react to this. I hadn't seen the two talk much, if ever, and it's apparent on Paradiso's face that he is a little timid in Samhain's company.

The appaloosa boy's blue gaze darts to the grass at our hooves and then to me before he smiles politely to the stallion. "Sure. That would be cool." Paradiso says, flicking his short tuft of a tail wildly across his haunches. He looks to me again. I can tell he's getting antsy. The boy can barely stand in place. "I think I'm going to go find Ostara. See you later." And with that, he tears off down the hill and into the reeds at an awkward and elongated trot.

I chuckle a bit as he goes, grabbing him by the rump with my teeth if only for a second before he's out of reach and headed toward the mares in the distance. Then I settle back onto Samhain. "You good?" Is all I say, eyeing him up and down now. He looks so much like his father.

My tail drifts idly in the humid breeze and tow firey red lobes swivel forward and back. "I'm sending that one to live in the Bay soon. You know them over there?" I'm curious of Samhain's intel. Clearly I don't know Nephilim's children, but I trust the stallion I grew up with. However, it's possible that I value a Tinuvel-born resident's opinion more. "And I may need your help locating his sister in the near future, if you're up for it."
