It was amazing how wondrous new life was and the happiness that it could bring to so many people. As the three of them stood around little Astra she couldn't help but watch as she took her tentative first steps only to fall multiple times before finally getting a handle on her new stilts. By now she was set on a mission to fulfill the problem of a grumbly belly and receive the first taste of her mother's milk. Her colts had done the same thing but with a little more delayed timing considering there were two of them. In the beginning the two of them would constantly trip over each other or just happen to wobble into the other starting a chain reaction. Her first born had been the first to stand and the first to accomplish many things with his brother trailing along behind him. She had known from the beginning that Aeolus was a little delayed but after a month or two you would never know there had been a problem. In a way she wondered if it had been caused by the lack of oxygen during the first minutes of his life when she had been literally too drained by the second labour to even lift her head. If not for Alysanne and the rest of those who had been present she would have lost him before his life even began.

Flicking an ear to the giant (well compared to her that was) she listened to both Whisper and Tembovu expressing their gratitude yet again. A small smile formed upon her face as she nodded much appreciative of the kind comments that were always few and far between with her. Turning her eyes to the stallion she regarded him with slight confusion as he continued say she was likely more useful than she thought she was. If only that were the case.. The only thing she had been useful for is a pawn for others to push her around and do as they wished to her. The first two years of hell had been like that and then arriving here only to have Note do just the same, was she good for anything else? "Mmm perhaps." She replied with a head bob hoping to hide the pain she was feeling deep down. Somehow she felt as if the stud had a greater meaning to his comment rather than the words he had actually spoken aloud. Studying him for a minutes she finally tore her eyes away only to turn them back to Astra and Whisper.

Returning the smile as a comment is made regarding her magical ability she feels heat rush to her face and pull her eyes to the dirt. She was so unused to compliments that each and everyone always caught her by surprise making this her normal reaction. Thankfully her face was unable to turn the shades of pink that would likely be there if she were any other species. "It is rather neat and can be useful sometimes should I use it." She replied forgetting how good it felt to have the fire consume her to create almost a miniature barrier between herself and the world. It had been so long since she had felt it rise in her veins that she almost forgot what it felt like. Sometimes her magic didn't exactly give her a choice whether or not to use it but thankfully she had done a decent job of keeping it contained.
