Her eyes were wide with fear as she carefully picked her way through the marsh, doing her best to stick to the concealed path that was her best chance of staying safe and sane. The moon had returned but that didn't help her anxiety levels all too much, not when this region seemed to hold a darkness of another sort. The plants looked sicker than usual and a strange odour clung to the air, an aroma that was sickly sweet. It was faded but nevertheless still assaulted the mare's nostrils enough to know it was recent. What had happened here? The mare had only been gone for a few days to try and clear her mind, to see if there was anything that could trigger her memory coming back. She had spent most of her time wandering around the lands aimlessly, avoiding every creature she could. Upon realising that nothing was going to bring it back she'd dejectedly decided to head back to the one horse that could promise her a home; Seele. Sonya had disappeared before she had met the rest of the Asylum. Part of her had panicked, wondering if there was a reason that she was alone. Accepting that this was her new life had led her coming back, but now it seemed that there may not be a band to return to.

Releasing a cautious whinny, Sonya stopped where she stood. Her silver tail was clamped down uneasily, her ears flicking in all directions. Beneath her grey pelt her muscles were coiled, meaning the dappled lass was ready to flee at a moment's notice. She might have forgotten her entire past, but that didn't mean she had lost her instincts to run away before danger. Spectral Marsh was a scary place at the best of times but when the lass was alone she found it that much more terrifying. She didn't want another scar. The first time she'd seen the damaged tissue on her face since arriving here she'd felt her heart stop, suddenly fearful of what her past would do to her if it ever caught up. This place instilled the same amount of fear now, directly into her heart. Breathing deeply, she calmed her nerves. She was being silly. Nothing was going to hurt her. She just needed to find her new family and find out what happened. Yes, that would make everything okay. Opening her maw, she called out warily once more, her tone much more subdued this time. "Hello? Seele? Is anybody here?!" The grulla lass could only hope that someone from the Asylum would find her soon.
