Havelle regrets not getting to know Noctis sooner. They all have a lot in common, having two parents that don't see eye-to-eye with each other. Just as Zjeena thought uniting the Bay and Paradise by blood and by pact would bring peace to their lands, Liland saw her actions as a betrayal. And just as Vasilissa must see herself as a strong-willed but loyal mare, defending the honor of her son, Rougaru must have mistaken her actions for disrespect. It's tragic how miscommunication and a slight differing of both perception and opinion can rip families apart.

They have both endured so much pain, by no fault of their own.

Havelle follows Nocits along a winding path. The lush vegetation brushing their sides takes Havelle back to happier days, when she and Nattergal ran these paths together. They would play hide and seek behind the biggest fronds, and race each other on tracks to nowhere. That was when they both had no drama to weigh them down. While Nattergal longs to return to Paradise for the memories it brings, Havelle is only saddened by the thought of going back to a time that cannot be lived again. She would rather keep moving forward, and go home to the Bay when today's outing is over.

There travels lead them further east, to the other side of the island, where the land slopes down towards waters belonging to another stretch of ocean. Noctis should know the other foals gather nearby. He must, because he lets loose a call at just the place for it to be answered. A lively grullo colt emerges from the jungle and trots to greet them. He is primitively marked like she, her brother and their mother, but the grey color of his coat, and the length of his growing legs mark him as merely a half sibling.

He has an observant eye and a sharp wit to ask the right questions right away. Havelle swallows any remaining tears and begins with a cheerful greeting. "Hey, I'm Havelle. I'm your sister." Havelle is certain Zjeena told Akela about his half siblings on another island. She's not the kind of mare to keep secrets, but until now, Akela wouldn't have had a face to put to her name.
