The gentle touch of Onni's wing over her back was comforting in a way that she would not have guessed. She had seen a horse huddled under the large tent of a wing before, when Quil and sheltered Resplendence after the invasion. She was glad, and calmed, that she could feel the same shelter now. Worry not, sister, the words came, and Kahlua smiled. Sister... despite her fears, she felt better knowing that Onni would consider her as such. When they had first met, Kahlua had thought that relations with Onni would only be a way to prove her use to Thor. Their friendship had come to mean much more to the mare. Regardless of her own thoughts on the matter, Kahlua felt that she must trust Onni. The walls she had built, her certainty that Midas was a terrible force to be avoided, were being weakened on all fronts. After all, Onni had been right before, she could be right again. And surely.... Kahlua looked to the stallion as he suggested foul play by the devil. Surely he must be telling the truth. His conviction was without flaw. At least, without flaw that the mare could find. Of course, she was not known to be a terribly good judge of character either. Did he have a companion in company? The question drew the mare from her, admittedly few, thoughts and she looked upon the stallion with curiosity. Her brow furrowed in concentration as she looked to the golden bird that followed Midas now. “No,” she said finally, knowing she would have remembered if the bird had been with the other being. It was unmistakable. After a few moments silence, Kahlua then sighed in resignation. Though she wanted to distrust the stallion she could not make herself any more. “Forgive me, I meant no offense to a friend and ally,” she said finally, looking first to Midas and then to Onni as though the painted mare walked on clouds. In Kahlua's eyes, she was one of the wisest beings there ever could be. Perhaps the painted mare was just easily impressed, but she didn't know the difference. |
