No one needed to understand. She knew this was the right decision even though the father was only one of her handsome flings. Picking Orphiel might have been the better choice for her love life. There was nothing wrong with Zurok (and he was crazy sexy), but her focus on Orphiel had been waning. She once promised herself that she would fully give herself to him after all the drama with Loupgaru. Then she had made up with Loup (kind of). Now everything was just messy, but Orphiel still stayed. She did not deserve him.
Labor hit intensely as she hid in the cave just as she had her other births. The process went surprisingly eaay, way faster than Tifa's birth had been. She prays for better results as she finally turns to look upon her new child. Another beautiful filly who so far seemed healthy with life. Paravti smiles, cleans off the filly and admires her red Dun painted coat. This was the first red colored baby she has had which, in Parvati's mind, made the girl unique to the family. Especially since her sister and father were dark colored. "Let's go show you off to your father." She says with a smirk. Parvati begins to work with the new filly to stand so that they could take a little journey to the edge of the Bay.

Months have went by since Zeva's birth and the filly was doing well. Parvati paraded proudly around the Inlet to show her off quite often. Show all the nay sayers that she could still have healthy foals and that this filly could heal her heart after Lati's death. Though it could have never prepared her for the death of her father.
Parvati was on gaurd, keeping Zeva very close, after the raid attempt last year. It didn't matter that it had been awhile because she had defended the Inlet from the Lagoon enough times to know they were relentless. They would be back eventually. Then Parvati heard the whispers surrounding Tifa. The stallion she had been sneaking off to see had died. Parvati had noticed her child moping around, but had been too busy to ask why.
"Come Zeva," She says as she leads her newest addition to the area Tifa wanders. Parvati calls out to her child as she approaches. "I heard about the loss of Heart's sire," She says once she was close enough. "I am sorry for your loss." There wasn't a whole lot to say since she did not know the stallion. Only that he was an outsider just like the scent that now shrouds her daughter's coat. Parvati loved having grandchildren (and foals of her own), but she was worried Tifa might being trouble to the Inlet. "Tifa I must remind you that breeding outside of the Inlet could bring trouble to your uncle." She sighs.
"We do have a few here that are not related to us, but I know the choices are slim. Your uncle has brought in three stallions from outside of the family." Knowing how his sister was, Nico had tried to expand the Inlet by bringing in new blood. "Nox for example," She explains. Maybe Tifa didn't know they weren't related or perhaps Nox would prove to be a great mate for little Zeva when she grew up. Or maybe her grand daughters Saraswati or Roksana. It seems they were filling the place full of fillies lately. "Can you at least try to keep it to Tinuvel or our allies?" Her eyes roll.
Not that she had any idea who this new smell belonged to or where they lived. Parvati just likes seeing her children stick to their family lands. If Tifa met another stallion off island she may leave to go live with him.
