How long had the darkness consumed the whole of Helovia? Without the rise and fall of the sun and the moon the pale mare had lost count of how long she had been running in fear or how long she had been searching for her children. She had floundered in the darkness, failing to find them and protect them like a good mother should and she was left to hope that d'Artagnan had found them and cared for them. He couldn't make the same mistake of abandoning them twice, could he? No, she'd had to have more faith in him than that, but doubt had kept her legs moving and her eyes wide as she'd run and searched, only resting when she'd found a place she had deemed suitable enough to protect her.

It was quite sudden when the darkness lifted and the world revealed itself in its natural state once more. She had blinked and squinted to shield her eyes from the brightness of the sun. Her search had not stopped just because the sun had finally risen once again. It was with renewed vigor that Kou searched for her sons but it still proved to be fruitless as day after day she came up empty.

Her wandering had brought her back to the north where their home had been before d'Artagnan had left and she'd stupidly followed. The icy wind brought minimal comfort as did the crunching snow beneath her cloven toes, but she would not be completely comfortable or happy until she'd finally made sure that her boys were safe. Her girls were old enough to care for themselves, she knew, so she did not worry for them as she did her sons.

"Roux! Sacre!" Her ears tilted forward as she listened to her echoing voice until it died away completely and all she was left to listen to was the howling of the icy wind. Kou shivered as she continued to stand and wait for a response. She blinked as the wind whipped her hair about her face and strands of it stinging her eyes and obscuring her vision.

The pale mare had begun to walk once more and with each step she took she became more weary from her travels and more desperate to find her sons and make sure they were okay. "Roux! Sacre!" Some distance ahead of her she could see a large horse with a much smaller animal at its side. Her tail flicked and she looked away, knowing that it couldn't be her sons because neither of them were that big or that small. She came to the conclusion a short time later that it would not hurt to ask whoever it was if they had seen the two boys, so she began walking toward him.
