His brothers carefree outlook on life never ceased to amaze the iron stallion. They -of the same age- were two worlds apart when it came to their personalities. So it does not surprise him when Kwartz is the first to arrive with whimsical wordige. The pastel pegasus was never one to let any situation become too serious...
He has just turned to watch the charred remains become engrossed with lava when Kwartz comments on their sisters reaction to the corpse, if she were to see. His emerald eyes shift sideways to view Kwartz now at his side and watching the earth move overtop the body. "There. Better?" His voice remains talentedly unamused even as he entertains his brothers banter.
When the corpse is melted into earth he turns to look at his brother with a serious expression. "Father is gone," he doesn't say much more than that when he hears the patter of hooves on rock. Emerald ears tilt back, his head turning more so as to see his sisters coming up from behind them...
He sighs because he knows what he is about to say will devastate Karat more than anyone. She had always been the apple of their father's eye. His body shifts until he has turned to face the lavender girls, "I have called you all here because I thought you should all know that our father is no longer with us. There had been an... accident, and he did not live through it. I have laid him to rest here." He pauses as he sees tears watering his twins silver-lavender eyes. His emerald muzzle reaches to console her. Her features are that of shock and sadness. He knows they cannot possibly understand all that had happened. But he did know that they needed each other more than ever now.
"I have an idea though," he adds in a light voice. A soft smile finds his lips before he closes his eyes to concentrate on his task. He dips into each of their bodies natural iron supplies and pulls them together. Each bit combining with the remains of their father as well as more iron ore from the earth's core to form a metallic sphere. He sets it down atop the melted earth that flowed overtop the remains and it begins to flow together. In time they will know the gift he has created for his sister. For his family.
Karat and Kove look to him confused but they do not question their brother. Their hearts are filled with sorrow as they join together to remember all they have lost...
