Vasilisa begins to lick her wound before answering her question. Sanibel was surprised the mare didn't try to chase her away from her colt. Honestly she got a more calm vibe from the mare than she had when they first spoke. Sanibel gasps at her words. She did remember Rougaru warning the herd about a large snake in the area, but she didn't too much heed to his words. She would now that she sees what has happened to Vasilisa. She could have lost Noctis today.

Her eyes glance behind as Vasilisa mentions she should keep her foal close. Luckily, Beowulf was already nearing her and bumped his little nose on her flank. She notices that twinkle in the boy's green eyes so she smiles softly at her him before turning her green gaze back on Vasilisa and her colt. "I'm glad you both are safe. Maybe when this danger is gone Noctis and Beowulf can play together. For now, it is probably best they just stay close to us." There wasn't much more to say here. This mare and herself weren't exactly friends, but they would tolerate each other as long as they were herdmates.

She turns and nips at Beowulf lightly. "Come on son it is time to go." She needed to get some of her son's energy out so he would be ready to sleep come nightfall. It shouldn't be long now for the sun to set. Sanibel leads her colt towards the sea where she usually gazed out and thought of Shamwari. The day she could return was coming she could feel it. She smiles and eyes her young son. He seemed strong enough now.
