Do not presume that just because I am a seer,
my fury has been checked


It didn't take long for a fourth to join the gathering, and a face he knew, Elsa. The arrival of the pale pegasus mare is a welcome sight for the astral stallion, though he wished she hadn't been caught out in the storm also. How fast had it come? It swirled into being like a vengeful tempest from the heavens, unrelenting from the first moment rain had touched the ground.

Alune politely ignored the dark mares outburst, he knew it was out of concern for the child — the weather certainly didn't help the mood either. It didn't occur to him that his status at being a stallion would cause blooms of distrust and wariness in her.

Elegant head dips momentarily to acknowledge her presence and he shifts, large azure hooves shifted to free themselves of the trapping mud beneath them. He took care not to move too quickly, or too boldly, his sheer size alone proved a daunting sight to some, and the filly could have easily been one of them. Instead he stood quietly, playing the role of watcher and guard as the mares checked that the filly was okay. Mares were protective over younglings, and he knew better than to intervene without invitation, it was a smarter choice that he remained in the background until called upon.

She was a sorry sight, he noted, lost and afraid — without a mother to protect her. Blue and brown streaked with blood and mud, she needed a healer and a warm nook to rest in, and soon.

Where is her mother? He idly pondered, there wasn't much to suggest that she had been near at the time it started to rain. If there had been, it would of been washed away by the rains by now.

"We all need to get out of here, the rain doesn't look like it will be stopping any time soon." His voice was gentle, chiming against the harsh wind defiantly as he gazed at the small filly. He tried to appear as a soothing light in the darkness for her, and the other two mares, let the foal focus on him and not the terrible wind that howled around them or the lighting that split the sky above them. "Elsa is right, we need to get you somewhere warm and safe."

Alune turned on his heel, spurned into action by the command and his own desire to see the filly safe, only further driven by the unmistakable tone in Elsa's voice. Tail slithered behind him as he nudged a couple of fallen branches out of the way and the prehensile appendage held back the brush that obscured the path. He would make sure that the filly would have little trouble as possible when she moved, her legs would need to be seen by a moon doctor the moment they stepped into the Edge.

Elsa at least, could provide her with shelter until then.

A glance was spared towards the dark pelted mare, accompanied by an ear flicking to her direction. "Well met, Sialia. Do you have a herdland that you are able to get to?"

Silvery gaze moved back to the little one in question, and his neck lowered his crowned head to her level. He had experience with few foals in his lifetime, and he knew it was better to go to their level than to loom above them. "Don't be afraid, I will protect you, Elsa and Sialia until we get to safety."
