With fall has come a new resolve for Ylva. The pain of Sabela’s death is in the past now, and though things seem to be continuously changing in the herd - for good or bad - Ylva is feeling more confident in her ability to fill the shoes of lead mare. Though the days are growing short and cold, Ylva wakes up each morning with something like anticipation or excitement, wondering what new thing will happen to the herd that day, even if it’s simply a short move to a better grazing area.
Several hours earlier, Liland had left on another of his mysterious trips, and Ylva had waited eagerly for his return. When at last she hears a faint call from the direction of the beach, her heart lifts in her chest and her head jerks up from her grazing. Liland is not alone, she realizes as a second, softer call sounds and then fades away. Ylva picks her feet up into a brisk, ground-eating trot and slows when the two horses come into view. Liland stands beside a new mare, one with a striking spotted coloration that Ylva has never seen before, and though her lips stretch into a smile at the exciting prospect of a new herd member, she feels a strange twisting sensation in her gut. For some strange reason, it’s becoming harder and harder to see Liland with other mares these days. With a friendly whicker of greeting, Ylva finally reaches the two horses and offers them both a smile and bob of her head. “Hello,” she says to the mare, her voice soft and demure. “I’m Ylva, the bay’s lead mare. Has Liland brought you to join us?” 4; norwegian fjord; red dun pangare; 14hh mother of harley quinn, joker, & torsten  |
