Word of the Edge must have been getting out because more and more the queen was finding that she did not even have to leave the Edge to go about recruiting new members to her herd. They seemed to be coming to her now, eager and willing to take residence behind the shattered glass wall. This all worked out quite well for the Sunshower, who really needed to be spending more time with her family and less time traipsing off into the wild unknown. At least she had been doing better lately, and it seemed her king had noticed. Ah, she was lucky to have the Stormbringer as her king and... something more than a friend. He held enough strength for both of them. Ah, and it seemed today would be another of those days for the queen, where a stranger wandered to her border and she had to do nothing but make her way there to greet them. Of course, the queen was not expecting a filly and she couldn't help but sigh softly as she spied the young one through the woods. As much as she enjoyed the company of others, the queen could not help but be put off by foals. Foals were like cages- they trapped you, made you settle down and accumulate responsibility. The queen was a free bird at heart and the very idea of cages (much like her shattered wall) made her shift uneasily. Still, the filly could not be left alone at the border. With nobody else to answer her call, the queen stepped forward. “Hello friend, I'm Kahlua, queen of the Edge. How can I help you?” The foal's one redeeming feature was her companion, which Kahlua had a dear and utter soft spot for. Lowering her nose to almost touch the ground, Kahlua reached out to towards the pup, an offer of a gentle touch, if the creature would accept it, but not forcing herself upon it. As she raised her head, she realized the creature reminded her very much of Aaron's companion and her eyes turned soft and sad for a moment. They had gotten off on a bad foot, but she had grown to like Aaron very much. It was a great loss to the Edge that he had to go, but she understood that he needed to find happiness. She had that need too. Kahlua |
