Am I being too distant, laying out Phae's options so cooly, so without emotion? Am I failing her, slipping so easily into a scholar's mind, creating each possibility without the slightest of worries? How could I be so callous to so easily speak of leaving her child with a stallion in the Basin, a place that I knew very little (and certainly no good!) of? Sure, Tolio might be well enough, but what of the rest of them? Would they accept a little horned creature without question, or would they want to know where - who - it came from? Certainly I can be of no use there - even if I wanted to lie for her, to claim it as my own, it would do me no good, for I am every bit as winged as she. I imagine what it would be like to have a foal with her, to carry them together and to give birth close together. Would our children be close? Would I be able to sustain another in addition to my own? Would it be any more help, really, than what I was already capable of giving? And how much use am I, truly, when all I can do is stand around giving 'maybes' and 'perhapses'? Frustration seeps into my mind, poisoning already dark thoughts, and when Phae asks another question, I almost miss it. "Sohalia...I need advice...Have you heard of a mare called Faelene?" I think back across my time in Helovia, searching for the name. Nothing appears. "I'm afraid not," I say apologetically. "Why?" |
