Sad, azure eyes roamed over the trees, hoof beats dulled and muted as she picked her way through the dark forest. The confrontation at the Foothills still drowned her mind in memories, the bitterness displayed between Jackal, the new third lead of the Triumvirate and the King of Thieves, and Svetlana the StormChaser… To the Haflinger mare, however, Jackal was no King of Thieves. He was a thief of Queens, of her Queen, Svetlana. Though the two hadn’t interacted much in her early weeks with the Foothills, due to ‘Lana being taken by the Plague, Romani had sworn her loyalty to the Pegasus mare the moment that she had agreed to be taken home from the Foothills. Svetlana was a friend, an ally, and one that Romani found she wouldn’t readily abandon. Jackal would get no loyalty from her, not until he proved his worth and his ability to lead a herd.

The Deep Forest was dark at this time of day, the shadows moving and dancing, performing to the soft song of the breeze that filtered through the trees. Where Romani would have once been unnerved by such unending darkness, the warrior had found that over her time in Helovia had given her an appreciation of the darkness. Not all things dark were bad, just as not all light was good. A pretty face can easily hide ill intentions, after all…

Giving her head a violent shake to rid the thoughts from her mind, Romani focused on the land around her. The ground was somewhat dangerous to navigate for one not paying attention. Someone could easily break a leg by tripping over a fallen log, and the palomino did not want to join the masses that probably have. Being left out here to die was not how she wanted to go. It was the sudden, sharp echoing of a snap! that caused Romani’s head to snap up, nostrils flaring to intake the earthy smells of the forest. On the breeze, very faint, the mare caught a familiar scent, one that her brain immediately registered as a friend. It was Svetlana’s smell, familiar and reassuring, and ever so carefully the compact mare picked up her pace to a slow trot, ears forward and listening.

“Svetlana?” Romani called out, not raising her voice too loud in fear of attracting unwanted visitors. Coming through a dense thicket of trees, it was only then that azure eyes caught sight of a pale, familiar body graced with elegant wings the colors of dancing shadows. A relieved, albeit nervous smile graced her lips, as she was uncertain if her presence would even be welcomed by the Pegasus. “Svetlana, I’m relieved to see you alright…”
