the Mother of Companions She had come too late. That much was evident as she swooped over the battlefield which had literally turned red below. The scenery was terribly foreign to her, but the site of war was not; its commotion what drove her towards it even as its last bits of chaos flew off like shrapnel. Outside of the herd she wasn't privy to Cathun's message, and looking down at it now it made little sense. The massive carcass of a bear was evidence enough, but the land itself was so strange and she couldn't remember having seen it on past patrols. Yet, there were so many Helovians present. At least some that she recognized, many from her own herd, though dozens more she had never seen - nor the likes of them at all. They seemed, alien. She flew in closer, circling down to land once she spotted her desert dwellers, but she never quite made it to them, not yet. Instead her attention turned to the pained wailings of a pale stallion. His was the only cry if despair that reached such a volume. Many limped off and moaned about their wounds of war, while others still slithered off silently, no doubt to spread the news. This one though...this one, he was afraid. The vague familiarity that he registered in her mind flashed over her again as she landed behind him. She wasn't sure what drew her to him; she had no healing magic, physical or otherwise. Instead it was like she was attracted to his grief, or perhaps just the strangeness of this one soul calling out while so many stood silent, or thankful, or awed. Like eyes which can't divert from a trainwreck so Ampere walked towards this speckled stud, Mauja, her wings seemed to whisper for her mind as they folded against her back. Then she knew. "What have you done?" she said int he softest manner possible. There, cradled by the blood colored ground lay the owl. Her paleness was striking against the backdrop of war that this land signified. It seemed to intensify her innocence, and in due part, Ampere's absolute rage. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" she screamed at him. |
