It's empty in the valley of your heart...
The sea-foam mare reeks of fear and worry, then all of a sudden relief. The mix of emotions lets Jah-Lilah know the type of mother the girl is. She's seen dams abandon their progeny at only hours old, but it was not my star-child's job to judge, only to pick up the pieces. She's nursed them back to health or put them out of their misery, whatever the Earth-Mother required of her. This cerulean equine though, she was different. A strength oozed from her. Any mare that could successfully birth twins, let alone twin boys, LET ALONE one with wings! Dayuuuuum. Special.
Jah-Lilah could only ever recall one other girl birthing two healthy twins and surviving. It was many seasons ago, and the mare was creamy in complexion. Only a few shades lighter than these boys, come to think of it. Her mane was fire though, the color of ripe oranges. It had been a hard delivery, the mother barely lived, but she did it. The apricot-maned lady was the closest thing Jah had ever had to a sister, and she missed her fiercely. But! No matter now. That was back when Jah-Lilah had lived on the beach, with a clan of shore dwelling unicorns. They had taught her to swim.
She's snapped back from her reminiscing by the loving but sharp tone of the siren ambling down the hill toward her, the mare almost canine in her movements. Or perhaps it was something else, Jah-Lilah do be tripping sometimes. She wears an embarrassed look at she cracks a joke about motherhood, and Jah-Lilah laughs with her, knowing all to well about wild-ass kids. "They better recognize, huh?" She comments encouragingly as the young mother doles out a light punishment to her babes. Clearly, having to be good cop AND bad cop was breaking her poor, bleeding heart.
Jah's ears swivel as the girl begins apologizing, a look of genuine disbelief of her face. "Bothering me? Honey, if you and these two mini-nightmares were bugging me, I'd just move out the way. Your problems are yours." She reaches out her muzzle to exchange breath with this new, captivating creature across from her. "The Earth-Mother named me Jah-Lilah, but you may call me what you please." Jah-Lilah had never seen anyone like this bright, unique mare, and she was excited. She bobs her head and moves her nose down the girl's crest, sniffling and snorting. She squeals quietly, flicking her tail. She was enjoying the company of this creature, more so than any others she had met in the lush forest thus far, and yearned to be closer to her. "Why are you so far from home with your children, Wolf-of-the-Water?"
...The sun rises slowly as you walk away from all the fears and all the faults you've left behind.
