As strong as the seas are stormy.</style>

The prospect of more material possessions had hounded her, the invitation something that had garnered both interest and confusion from within her herd. Not many had intended on gathering, nor participating, despite being closest with the Edge of all herds. Still, Hotaru was drawn to the idea of it, to the thrill of challenge and promise. Was she creative enough for the task? Regardless, she had reluctantly left her children in the hands of her capable northern kin, promising them she would be swift and return to them before the new morn had come on the fourth day. Still, they pulled at her heart with every mile and every step, a reminder of everything she had left to live for and return to. Not that she was heading into something dangerous, of course.

They gather like flies to honey, and that was one quote she had kept from her mother forever, though Hotaru suspected it had been meant more for Raeden than herself. You can draw more flies with honey than with vinegar. Such was the reasoning behind her smooth talking and playing up of her gender for those that fell like willing servants at her hooves. She stands among them, a quiet participant, but as they begin to separate she nickered a soft greeting to Gaucho an Ampere in recognition. They didn't have the most admirable past, but she would not squander the attempts of the Edge leaders by destroying their games with her personal relationships.

With a target in mind, she sets out. The Edger trailing her is paid no heed, and she ventures out across Helovia pleasantly alone. It reminded her quite a lot of her upbringing, the outcast title stamped across her hide that had still smelled of newness and malleable innocence.

She finds what she requires, though it is a dangerous task. Nodding her head towards the Edger to capture their attention (internally laughing at their similarly disgruntled look with their current position) she nodded towards her subject and grinned mischievously.

She had her answer.
