this old world has brought me pain
but there's hope for me again
but there's hope for me again
The sunset mare and her kitsune lazed by the water, gentle sunlight filtering through the leaves above. The rotunda, normally surrounded by greenery and life, was now falling into Orangemoon in a shower of oranges and reds. Though spring was the mare's favorite season, she had to admit that autumn was a close second. Who couldn't fall in love with the brilliant hues and perfect temperatures? Especially at mid-morning, with the last of the realm's birds singing their way south. Several alighted at the water's edge, bathing happily in the shallows before flitting away again. Persephone watched them with a smile. They were very happy creatures; would that she could be that easy again.
Something was happening in the land, something that she couldn't quite put her hoof on. Her pelt had been glowing at an alarming frequency for Orangemoon, which meant there was, for some reason, a huge influx of life into Helovia's lands. The mare wasn't sure what the reasoning was, nor whether it was even worth her concern. But for her, a lovely creature concerned with preserving life above all, the thought of so many younglings facing the winter without the summer to prepare them - well, the thought made her shudder. Particularly when the land was rife with chaos (and Kaos) as it was.
The thought of the Rift wiped the smile from her face in a hurry. Alecto wound around her forelegs, yipping softly to offer the mare comfort. -- Perhaps you are overreacting, -- the young kitsune offered helpfully, her many tails flicking with her barely-hidden concern. The mare frowned. Overreacting when she had heard whispers of Helovia's gods locked in battle with Kaos? Overreacting when the brilliant Sun, the beautiful Moon, the sassy Spark, and the solid Earth had departed from their posts? Overreacting when she could nearly feel the panic in the air? "Perhaps," she murmured all the same, retreating into the pavilion nearby to think. Alecto followed, drooping slightly at her inability to distract her bonded.
It would all be alright, wouldn't it? It would have to be.
