GUIDELINES - the Prairie stands as a symbol of peace and prosperity among the islands - anyone is welcome to live here so long as they do not bring harm to the Prairie or any of it's residents - adventure and exploration is not only allowed, but encouraged! residents are asked to use their better judgement and not travel to places that could bring them harm - the head of the prairie has final say in all prairie matters. the secondary and third positions are not able to be challenged for and are selected by the head - the guardians take on a more active role in the prairie; they must protect the inhabitants of the prairie and go on patrols of the prairie borderlines and shore. they can welcome strangers to the prairie and invite anyone to live here, though they must inform one of the leaders of any newcomers or visitors

First Breath After A Coma

I would honestly love you now,
But I would lovingly let you down.

The sky has been dark and the temperatures went cold ever since they found her. It's as if her death sucked all the warmth and sunshine out of the last of summer on Luthien. As such, Jabari wasn't surprised to see the damp colt was trembling. He seemed skinny and frail, but Jabari wasn't sure. Did all foals look like this when they were born? Or had this one been struggling for days on its own? There was no way to tell just how long ago Brienne had died, or when exactly this colt had been born. Even if Jabari had the answers, he'd probably still flail and panic, and he was doing now.

The nervous young stallion kept searching the rolling hills in the distance for somebody, anybody, who may have responded to his distress signal from before. But all he saw was the tide of the tall grasses, bending and bowing in the wake of the howling wind. No Paradiso. No Evaline. No Vita Nova. He took a step back from the colt and whinnied again, wildly and more shrill this time, in an effort to get someone's attention. "Come on, somebody, anybody." He said out loud to himself. Then Jabari turned his attention back to the young foal tucked neatly on the ground. He stared back at Jabari blankly as he rambled, and Jabari realizes this is a newborn. There's no way he knew what he was saying. Jabari snorts and surveys the empty terrain again before lowering his nose to the foal. It was comforting, at least, to find a fresh scent of Brienne again. Anything to cover what he saw and smelled from the day before...

"You must be cold." Jabari says, taking a few steps to circle the colt now, in an effort to find the right angle to which his body could block the most wind. His attempt to help is futile, however, as the gusts continue to whip from every which way across the open pastureland. "You've got to be hungry, too." He says, his head down low near the dirt, his eyes staring intently at the colt. Jabari didn't know who to ask for help in that regard. Evaline clearly hadn't been pregnant and he wasn't sure if Vita Nova could be. "Do you think you can get up?" He asks the colt, knowing better than expecting an answer.

To try to coax him to stand, Jabari extended his muzzle to the colt yet again, slowly but surely, and pressed his nose gently on his hind end. There he breathed in, strong inhales and exhales, and nudged him gently at first. "Come on buddy. I promise it's all going to be alright."
