good at goodbyes
Once again she found herself upon a sandy shore. Her children loved the beach. The shoreline that wrapped around their island home never failed to entertain her daughters. Kove's natural zest for curiosity and Eifa's youthful and innocent demeanor made the world in which they lived a plethora of activity. Every shell and unsuspecting mullosk became victim to their inspection with Kove leading her sister in every discovery. It was comforting to watch them, though Mosrael couldnt help but count all that was missing. Ketzia...Klaudius...even Krone's twins. They were all family, tied together by an unbreakable bond. Although Eifa offered some companionship to the lingering half of Mosrael's own set of twins, she knew she was no true replacement for all that had been lost. Still, the little black frosted filly, did try.
Standing upon a dune, the motherly figure kept a protective eye on the two fillies. Kove would soon be two, come spring, and Eifa was quickly growing into a leggy yearling. Still, the beach had lost its marvel for her. Strands of her past mistakes littered themselves amongst the seagulls and seafoam. She had been home for nearly a year and slowly she began to feel herself grow whole again. There were, however, a few lingering pieces that refused to release their grip upon her.
Her mind slipped back to a night long before the birth of the twins. Newly pregnant she had found herself studying the reflection of the stars upon the glassy water. He had appeared like mist there and as she had prepared to meet him another had intercepted him. The lavender and white mare, another Ischian, haunted every still moment. Since returning, Mosrael had worried that the stranger would be lurking around every corner. Rumor said that she spent the majority of her time in some solitary spot, in the company of one named Ivar. Supposedly, the two had a foal together of the same age as Eifa. It seemed even she had been able to move on when Mosrael had been unable to. Perhaps she had misjudged the seemingly fragile mare.
