Waking up to find her son sleeping peacefully nearby was a delight for the pale mare. The last couple weeks had passed uneventfully and she had taken the pleasure of spending what time she could doing things with her son. The two of them had been through a lot in the past couple months and things were finally starting to settle down as the weather improved greatly. As the snow melted their daily trips became longer as they explored all the places they could just enjoying each others company. Her boy was growing up quickly and she wished that she could somehow make him not age as fast so things wouldn't be over so soon. Each day that passed he was becoming more independent and knowledgeable making her so proud of the stallion he was turning into. There would come a time when he would need to strike out on his own to build a life for himself but for now he was still with her.

Todays journey had brought them to the wondrous floating island to see what all it had to offer other than its beauty and calm atmosphere. The ride up was always nerve wracking for one such as herself that was a creature of the land but her son seemed to be fearless when it came to heights and trying new things. His flying was slowly coming along making her a basket case out of worrying what could happen to him but thankfully so far he had yet to grasp the concept to fully take flight. If only she could help him... Sighing softly she watched her colt bound up ahead of her absolutely thrilled with all the new scenery, sights and sounds. Speaking of sounds... what was that jingling? Gazing around her blue orbs caught a group off to their right making her heart skip a beat. Oh no please don't let this be another murder.. "Aeolus come here please." She called out to him as she neared.

Reaching out her muzzle to touch his neck gently she was grateful when he obliged without too much complaint. Moving forward cautiously with her son tucked against her side obediently she was able to heave a sigh of relief when she found the Earth Turtle at the forefront of the gathering. Moving along to the side of the gathering she decided to stick around so that they might see what was going on. Despite her being rather uptight about being around so many people, Aeolus could care less. He was scanning the many faces happily trying to decide what all was going on or who he could go interact with. At least he didn't need to be burdened with her anxiety and for this she was grateful.
