No one could ever imagine how much childbirth hurt not unless you had been there. Stallions always thought that they were so tough and could take anything life threw at them but truth was they would be whimpering on the ground like babies should they have to do this. Anyone who said otherwise was just to afraid to admit that they would fail. At the mare's anxiety of her approach she stopped briefly backing off a step with her head low and ears to the side wanting to show her that she was no threat. She knew what this girl was going through and being all alone must be terrifying even if this wasn't her first child. Her twins had been born far from home surrounded by danger but by some saving grace Torleik had been there to help her through it. Yes it turned horrible when he discovered he was not the father as her boys both had wings but they both knew there was always that chance. It still didn't stop it from hurting considering the only other option was long gone by now. Emotion clawed at her throat as the memories cut into her painfully knowing that she had been used yet again for another's pleasure. The first two years of her life had been absolute hell but to finally believe you had found somewhere safe and have that happen, it very well nearly destroyed her. Her heart sure would never be whole not with everything she had already lost.

Shaking her head she cursed herself for letting those memories surface when she had other things to focus on that were much more important. Leaning her head down she tried to prevent the girl from getting up so as not to hurt her baby. She couldn't help the small laugh that bubbled up as the mare made a joke about the pain. "Trust me I know exactly what you mean." She replied with a gentle smile. Once again turning to check on the foal she was pleased to see that some progress was being made but was a little worried about the blood also present. From what she could see the babe was on the larger side likely tearing the delicate walls as it struggled to pass through the smaller opening. If that's all it was she knew from experience that it would heal but would take awhile. Again her mind flashed back to her first baby as she felt herself freeze and the air catch in her throat. Her beautiful little girl... like Whisper's babe she had been much too large for her small weakened body to handle...she had come too early thanks to the trauma that stallion had caused her only days previously. She was still unsure if it had been the stallion who had caused her daughter to die or by some chance her fault. No! She couldn't go back to that day, not now.

Shakily pulling herself back she tried to hide it behind a brave face so no one would see her pain. "You are almost there, just a little bit more." She encouraged praying for the shoulders to just slip through enough so the baby could pass. She couldn't let anything happen to this poor girl or her foal, she just couldn't. "Just breathe alright, I am not going anywhere. I promise you that." She could tell that Whisper was starting to lose her strength but she couldn't give up yet. "Another couple pushes and you will be in the homestretch" Moving to her side she knew something had to be done to help to minimize how much blood was lost. Once the baby was clear it should stop right? That's what had happened with her... watching as another contraction took hold she reached out ever so gently to clear away the mucus from the baby's face. Satisfied when the nose and mouth looked clear she grasped the foals front legs between her lips making sure to shield her teeth so as not to cause any harm. Watching for the next contraction she pulled back hoping to try and ease the baby along and help her mother. Come on.. please.. Pulling back with more effort this time she prayed for this to be over quickly.
