Keep your friends close and your enemies closer Posted on January 5, 2026 at 01:08:35 PM by Amberlyn
The caramel coloured spotted mare hadn’t heard anyone approaching, too lost in her own thoughts she jumped at hearing Baba Yaga’s voice. She didn’t immediately turn to face the mare, closing her eyes as her jumbled thoughts just happened to remind her why she was feeling heart ache. However as she turned to face the forest lead she knew the mare held no blame for her current feeling. However even knowing this she found it awkward to be around her forest lead for now and she found herself wondering if Dagda had filled his love in on his and Amberlyn’s conversation.
She avoided eye contact with the Baba Yaga, not sure if she could keep the hurt from her eyes and not wanting to then have to explain why the hurt was there. I’m fine, I was looking for Midir she said quickly, her eyes flying to the newcomer, praying it was Dagda, she wasn’t sure could managed him and Baba Yaga together right now.
She relax at seeing it was only Hasen, her smile more genuine Hasen her word was soft, a gentle greeting for her friend and sparring partner. As her eyes drifted around she frown have you seen Midir? I told him to stay here with his father whilst I was gone she said, a little bit concerned that he might have left the Forest without one of his parents knowing. Of course he could be perfectly fine trying to soak up the sun somewhere, with a similar coat colour to his mother it wasn’t as if he could blend in with the greenery.
With her mind completely consumed with her missing son, she hadn’t given any thought to the fact she wouldn’t be able to hide the young growing in her belly, nor did she wish to answer any questions regarding it, but she couldn’t control others actions, so it wasn’t like she could stop them asking if they so decided to.
