I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up and take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion

She stopped as Tembovu instructed her to lay down, to rest. It had been a long night. She felt like it had been years between events and happenings. The threshold, meeting faces and then leaving to find him only to get lost... then laboring so hard only to be helped by one of the most beautiful faces she had ever seen and such a kind soul. Fate, it must have been - had woven them together. She turned around and eyed them all apologetically as she flopped to her side, jarring her insides. Her mind couldn't handle much more. Poor Brisa... the mare was so pitiful and beautiful all in one... who could harm such a pure at heart being.


She looked up at Temb and nodded her dial as if she were checking out of life for the moment. But she felt like she was being watched, as if something were lurking deep inside the shadows, calling her name. She shivered and looked passed Tembouv into the night. Astra's arrival had sparked some kind of... need in her. The need to protect her daughter from the things that lurk inside the dark. She felt as if Tembovu was the light that was keeping the wolves away. When she got to these lands, when he left her there to recruit others - then what? What would come then? She shook her dial and placed her wing over her daughter, hiding her from even the light of the moon. Dear Astra... she could not fall victim to such horrendous things like she had, Whisper just couldn't not allow it.

Her auds flicked up as Tembovu spoke to her. Her answer was slow and drawn out with sleep and exhaustion. "The lake. Look for the dark leafs of a blue flower. Chew them, they should taste minty. If its bitter, spit! Drink some cool water behind it... it should calm.. if you find some purple flowers,  ground them with your hooves and inhale deeply..." she paused and watched Temb and Bri move away. They wouldn't be gone long... surely they wouldn't leave her here along but she couldn't stay awake any longer. Her dial nodded and she slipped into sleep... her body twitching as the demons started to plague her dreams.
