The black winged mare doesn’t seem to know who this gold-crown woman is either, which appears to dampen the colt’s enthusiasm (for half a second), when Lyanna suggests meeting in the Throat and Basin.

Tiamat’s eyes brighten in response, absolutely thrilled by the idea. “I would love that! I’d like to see the Edge as well,” the ocean mare hums happily, smiling wide and brilliantly as she imagines days of herbal knowledge and budding friendships. There are few things in the world that pique her interest more than these, and her heart swells, brimming even more so when the golden boy announces his attendance as well. “I can’t wait to see you there!” The sea maiden laughs gleefully, her eyes shifting between each of them before resting on the quietest one of their group.

Vertigo’s silence initially worries the Mender—have they intimidated her somehow? Is she uncomfortable? What can she do to help? However, as the moments tick by and she studies the draft mare’s pretty features, she notices that Vertigo is, indeed, emotional—but it would seem with happiness, rather than any sort of unease.

The words that the Shire mare speaks are obviously so saturated with comfort and relief, that Tiamat feels her own throat tightening just watching her. She wonders what this poor woman has had to endure in her life, that their simple invitation of kindness and friendship has moved her so deeply. Has she really been so horribly deprived of compassion?

Not wanting to dwell too much right now on the possible answers (her heart is already laden with enough sadness), Tiamat turns her eyes—quickly blinking away the moisture that suddenly blurs her vision—to Pat when he speaks. His enthusiasm and young innocence are endearing. “All good,” the blue mare repeats softly when he finishes, taking the simple statement to heart, and broadening it towards life. (Because that’s what life should be, isn’t it? Good?) “I feel just as honored to have met you, my friend. All of you,” her eyes roam over all three of the others, her words sincere.

She swallows before turning again to Vertigo, smiling and offering encouragement, “Wherever you choose to go, I hope you can find a home as well.”
