With a small surprise, Mirage raised a brow as she heard the words of the fae following her own. It wasn't that the leader thought Tamira was a coward, or otherwise incapable of the act, but simply that the chocolate maiden's reasons were sensitive ones, ones that were to be treated with care and delicacy. But she was pleasantly surprised to learn that Tamira would accompany her to inform Kri of this news, that she would face the sometimes unpredictable wrath of the Resolute one. Mirage hoped that the news would not make her dear friend angry, or at least, that her anger would be directed at herself. She hoped it would not affect the alliance that existed between them - Mirage knew well the sting of trusted herd members abandoning the ranks to follow their own dreams. There was no better path to take but honesty, however it was a peculiar case with Tamira - Mirage was glad, now, that the mare would be present to face Kri's reckoning of the situation.

No matter the outcome, however, Mirage would accept what would come, and would work to restore the happy balance afterwards. Everything in life was a balancing act, a delicate and tricky matter of ensuring the scales never tipped too far one way or the other. Mirage believed this, she knew this with every fibre of her being, and that was why she worked constantly to ensure that all of Helovia saw that balance. Darkness and Light, good and evil, all were needed in order to exist, to function in a world built upon foundations of chaos and destruction.

"I absolutely agree with you." A small smile, a gentle motion that would allow her muzzle to brush along Tamira's shoulder should Tamira permit, a light wuffle. Her golden eyes looked to the skies above - she had originally planned on flying to the Throat, however she was more than happy to make the concession of travelling by land to accommodate her newest herdmate, friend, comrade. "We shall rest for today, and travel there tomorrow." A decisive tone entered her voice, as the mare turned herself away from the edge of her home, motioning her tiara to invite Tamira to follow her towards one of the many campsites that existed further within the lands. "Come, let us find a cool cave to escape this heat for the night."

[ ooc :: I am OK with letting this thread 'fade to black' if you like, or we can keep going here, whatever you like xD
I was thinking we could do one open thread that shows their journey towards the Throat in the Thistle Meadow? Or we can just post straight at the Throat ^^ ]
