- sometimes in the wind of change -
She has not seen the girl around since her birth. In some ways, that makes sense, given the condition of the young princess when she’d first been brought into this world. And the timing. None of it had been good. Lyanna had done what she could then, but the magic the Goddess gave her is still limited. Only the Gods could cure some things, and they so often seemed to ask a price for that. It seemed unfair, in a way, but she understood it. They couldn’t simply give the residents of Helovia everything. Couldn’t make their lives so beautiful that they did not appreciate the beauty. You only appreciate things when you know what the alternatives are. When you know what pain, suffering, and devastation looks like.
Their life in the Edge, even with the threat of Kaos looming, is blessed and beautiful. The Moon Goddess shows no signs of deserting them, as the Earth God had done to the Falls. Again, she can understand that decision, though she struggles with it and she struggles with so many things in life. Things should be fair. Life should be easy. But it’s not, and it cannot be. How do you reconcile those notions?
You don’t, and so she simply dwells on it now and again.
But today is different. Today is the sort of day were curiosity lives. Because life is not meant to live in hiding, in saftey, even when it makes sense or when one should. Lyanna recognizes the girl instantly, though she imagines the girl does not remember her. But how could Lyanna forget that beautiful little filly? Even if she had never met her before, the girl looks like her parents and is impossible to mistake.
When Lyanna finds her, the filly is leaning against a tree, breathing heavily, and she almost calls upon the Moon’s magic without asking. But then she stops herself, offering a soft smile and a friendly nicker instead. “Hello, I’m Lyanna,” she says, coming to stop a poliet distance away from the princess. “I’m one of the Moon Doctors here. Can I offer a bit of help?” The magic wouldn’t fix it. She already knows this. Already tried, once. But the magic would help the exhaustion and the shortness of breath, at least. It wasn’t much, but it was something.
