She is sleeping in her dark world of liquid warmth and muted sounds - safe nestled among her brothers. She does not know, yet, that they are not one, that they will ever be anything other than one.
But she had seen others in her sleep. These others have come to visit them in the strange world of dreams, and in that world, Warlight was more than a folded bud in her mother's womb. She had stood, side by side by side with her brothers and looked into the glowing faces of their mothers.
She thinks of this place now - the place out there that her mothers have shown her - and when she thinks of it in her liquid-time dream state, she yearns for it.
She reaches for it as her world contracts around her, and as she reaches she assumes they all reach.
And for the first time in her short life, Warlight finds herself somewhere else. She finds that she has left them - two-thirds of herself - back there and that this would send a shock of brightness into her mind.
When finally she does blink open her eyes she sees the face of the creature who had visited her in their dreams and she is not afraid. She looks right, and there is the other face which she knows - the face with the blue eyes and life-giving milk.
But she wishes to know where her brothers are.
Snuffling she turns in search of them a small, almost-whinny leaving her lips.
OOC: In case it isn't clear (very likely) Warlight has dream teleportation and teleported herself out beside Solace instead of waiting to be born
