Alysanne & Hemlock

Torleik, the name confirmed by Brisa, may not be the father to the twins but he was handling the situation better than she might have hoped. Not the biological father, perhaps, but he was behaving as a father would - moving towards one of the young colts to encourage him and give him support. The mare too, perhaps giving into the same maternal instincts that were pushing Alysanne to help the little foals make a smooth transition into this world.

But as the others moved to help with the foals, Alysanne stayed where she was - her attention focused on Brisa. She had told her not all that long ago that she was not alone and that they would always be there to help her - and she had meant that promise. Too bad Kahlua wasn’t here as well, but in place of their other great friend were two kind semi-strangers. She was so glad Brisa wasn’t alone, and how great of proof that kindness amongst strangers still existed in Helovia! In case Brisa could not see from her angle, she updated her friend on what was happening, what the others were doing. “They’re just checking on him. He just needs a little love, that’s all.” Her voice was steady, not betraying the worry that was itching into her mind. Brisa had a rough pregnancy before, the risk was higher for her - and though Alysanne did truly believe that everything would work out there was always that chance. And she wish she had her healing magic here, wished that there was something that she could do to save a foal that was having trouble.

He would be alright though, she just knew it. Her family was growing again, new life brightening the spring. Even with a chilly start, both twins would surely be up and about in little time! “Maybe he could use some help from his mother.” She suggested gently, lowering her head to nuzzle at Brisa’s neck. The white mare was so strong, she could do this.
