give me your eyes for just one second,
give me your eyes so i can see
everything that i keep missing

It was about time that Rasta figured out these new surroundings. It wasn't a bunch of swamp and rivers around here. In fact, it was quite dry and barren - the polar opposite of where she used to leave. Just that simple thought dawned a creation for the nightmares to begin to linger around in her cranium and sleep was now something she wished to push off. To push far far off. Her hooves clipped against the ground in a continuous rhythm. Each step matching the last, evenly spaced with no more or less weight than the previous.

Why was it, now, that everything was seeming so mechanical and planned? Had she lot all of her spontaneity in the invasion and being trapped as a prisoner of war? Had she become so broken that all that was left of her soul was some shattered image only capable of keeping the formalities and the image she had once had? Could she even allow herself to break down and cry and take in all the horrible events that had happened? Had the wall she had built to protect herself after the shattering experience with Scathashoun been raised and fortified too high to allow herself the grace of taking it down?

Rasta's features held an old and worn look for someone who appeared to be so young. She held much past her years and she was uncertain she would really be able to continue moving on in her later years. She used to be able to shed tears of joy. She used to be able to shed tears of pain. Now she couldn't shed any. She knew her way around without much of a second thought - but she couldn't even navigate the sea of her own emotions anymore. It all flooded her brain at once when it dared to pass the flood-gates that were holding them at bay.

And so, here she was, floating forward until she felt something strange. A tall, looming wall against the edges of the border -or at least what she assumed was the border. Her entire frame stopped, haunches dropping as she raised her head up toward the sky. Bewilderment shoveled through her features as she let out a snort of uncertainty. "What the-" were the only words she could muster up as she attempted to take all this in.

That was when it hit. It hit her like a bull ramming it's entire weight into the one who had caused it anger and taunted it. All of the air was knocked from her lungs as shame flooded through her. If only she had thought of a way to fortify her lands! Then perhaps they would still be there! Perhaps Ramaskith would have been put to rest! Perhaps there would have still been an area of freedom! But no. She had failed. She had failed in her attempts at protecting the one thing she had sworn to protect. She had let her pregnant state get the best of her. And she had lost everything in her attempt of getting enough freedom to come back for her mate and child. She knew not of their state of existence now and it sickened her.

Everything that had happened was all her fault...
