A light hearted grace carried the girl through the forest alongside her lantern laden sire, her ginger lips curved into a continuous smile, which had been born as soon as he’d promised to take her somewhere other than the Edge. She was eager to have stories like Katua and Zubari; their mother was much more liberal with allowing her children out of the herd than Tilney was. Maude didn’t suppose she blamed him too much, really, considering that her momma had simply vanished just before the festival, while the cheetah-mare was still around to make sure her twins were safe while they explored, as was King Tembovu. With his tasks at the greenhouse and about the kingdom, her father was busy enough without having to follow his eager, adventurous daughter all across Helovia. It meant that the poor girl was often left at home, and forced to find her own imaginary adventures about the misty forest and steep cliff face. So, it’s no wonder that, today, with the invisible cage door flung wide open, Maude’s mouth was much the same, her cheerful cherub’s voice prattling away. “And then, as if the squirrel wasn’t weird enough, Katua just blasted through the poor shrub! It was pitiful, daddy, you should have seen the thing shudder about…” she is telling her father as they come upon Zubari and the strange filly. Another young mare is there, too, and the whole scene is enough to make the girl’s already vibrant smile grow all the wider. “Hi Zubari!” cheerfully greets the filly in time with her father’s greeting, prancing up to her friend’s side and nudging him happily with her nose. Her silk bound tail wriggles happily, citrine eyes wide as she looks about at the others gathered about. “I’m Maude,” beams the child as soon as her father is done greeting them, too. She quickly quiets, however, knowing that making sure the girl is healthy and comfortable is more important than finding out other things, like her name, or what its like to fly, or who the pretty white as clouds girl is… |

Hold onto this lullaby, even when the music's gone.
