Her friend appears confused, and Midas surely is as well. However, the shaman retains the idea that the beloved General would never have threatened the life of another so easily. She also knows that Kahlua is not the type to earn a death threat, being so easy and forgiving of nature. So, the tobiano stares blankly at her company, eyes racing from one face to another. Midas appears taken aback, as though her friend had issued a physical blow instead of cold cut words.

There is tension in the air, causing both Onni and Lyhty's feathers to ruffle in an unpleasant manner, as though the warmth had been sucked from around them. Still as statues, they both watch the pair as Midas struggles through uneasy words with a blank look of confusion on his features, but more importantly, one of concern. The healer is reassured in her belief that the General was a kind stallion, knowing how he treated the herd and his own son Cera. Surely, the creature who threatened Kahlua is not the golden eyed stallion with a warm heart.
Not Midas.

Kahlua takes uneven, doubtful steps toward the painted girl, and Onni rustled up a wing, allowing her friend close to her side. The soft of her muzzle seeking out the warmth of the shaman's neck and finding it easily, for the winged mare had no intentions of denying support. Instead, the shaman attempts to sling her wing over the back of the slightly taller mare. An embrace to keep her warm in a moment of terrifying uncertainty.

Even with the absence of sunlight, Onni is, above all else, warm.

"Worry not, sister," the tobiano whispers toward her. "There surely is an explanation... The shadows I spoke of wore the faces of former comrades turned violent and red," the mare looked toward her with earnest blue eyes. "Nothing is impossible in this world, but I would rest my life upon the shoulders of Midas."
