Without warning, the warm expanse of nothingness around him gives way to....life. With a crushing sensation and the sudden impact of hard stone beneath his damp young body, the colt jerks into consciousness for the very first time. His fledgling senses are assaulted by a myriad of smells, sounds and sights as he blinks open his gooey eyes and absorbs the light that delves into them. Finding the brightness offensive, he slams his eyes shut again and mewls pitifully, not liking this loud, cold, dry new world.

There's something missing, too. Something he can't place, like a limb or an organ - something he's been nestled against during the long months of confinement inside the womb. Something....sisterly. Concerned, the whelp flails around until his muzzle touches the moist fur of his womb-mate, and only then does he relax. Good - she's here safely as well.

With that important discovery, the newborn glances around. His mewls fade away to doglike grunts and growls as he examines his birthplace, finding it rather dark and dingy and not at all appealing. He glances accusingly over to the large bulk of his mother, as though blaming her for deciding to give birth in such a frightful place, before continuing to yip and yowl in that canine manner of his as he contemplates the idea of standing up for the first time. He'll do it in a moment - being born is exhausting.
