She was pregnant. She was pregnant. Gods above, how could she had been so stupid? Astraeus rode on the mare's haunches, unhappy to be descending into the dark. He did not offer an opinion on her current predicament, though the mixture of concern and disapproval flowing through the bond did plenty to express his thoughts. Sohalia ignored him, following the well-worn path into the caverns below Helovia's surface. Perhaps she would find some peace and tranquility here, where there were no prying eyes to find her. She knew that it wouldn't be nearly as dark as Astraeus thought it would be; after all, she had been here before. Oddly enough, her companion had been born here, though they had ascended to the surface so soon after his hatching that it was unsurprising for him to have forgotten. She made her way past the lava wall of the Sanctuary and into the softly glowing room beyond. This had been her favorite place, when they had been driven underground by the darkness that had consumed Helovia. The lush greenery, tinged blue with the light of glowing plants, was a marvel to her then, and it continued to be in the present time. She quickly settled beneath one of the larger trees, nibbling daintily on the moss and grass growing under her hooves. Her wings concealed her pregnancy from anyone who did decide to descend into the Caves, but only just - another week or two, and it would be readily visible, no matter what she did to try and hide it. Even now, if she shuffled her wings just so, it was painfully obvious that she bore life in her belly. Despite her reservations and her fears, she could not help but wonder at the life that her youngest child would lead. This would be the first child in years that had not been sired by Gaucho; in fact, those who had been fathered by Note in an age long-since past were dead. This would be the only piece of her that was not also a piece of him, and the concept was foreign, bitter. She knew that she had not been the WildFire's only conquest (a word that she spat with distaste, even in her mind), but for such a long time, he had been hers. Kaj was different, and the mare wondered who the child of the Transcended and the Aurelight would turn out to be. Would the babe be as troubled as its parents? Would they pass their broken souls on to their child, or would the baby be born without troubles, destined for a better life than either its mother or father? Only time would tell. "Talk talk talk." @Ki'irha, for Soh to craft for her! :3 |
