I still look for your face in the crowd.
Oh, if you could see me now.
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow.
Oh, if you could see me now.

Moonlight filtered down onto the gilded Sir who dozed in its gentle, silver touch. The movement of his breathing was calm and of one who was on the verge of falling into slumber, covered in cascades of pale mane. The whimsical world of dreams called him forth as he rested one back foot, stood on the border of trees and the cliff that seemed to lead straight to the stars. He was content for sometime until alarm bells started ringing in his mind, or perhaps, Kiba's alarm bells started ringing. Lids snapped back to reveal stunned green eyes as he sought out the mind of his bonded, enquiring after what all the excitement was about.

Kiba? What's going on?

His voice laced with a sense of panic and breathlessness.

Sool-Sso- Sooolstice. Babies

Came the dragons voice in his mind, filled with wonder and urgency. Kiba sent a series of images to Torasin's mind so the Doctor could find the place where she was giving birth. Body surged into action, darting around branches that threatened to behead him if he didn't give them more room, tail flicking from side to side as he ran. A colourful trill sounded above and soon the little brown was darting through the trees, twisting and flipping until he found himself gliding alongside his rushing bonded. Watching intently as the trees parted to a scene that the gentle Moon Doctor would remember for the rest of his days.

Puffing from the exhaustion was the motherly appearance of Solstice, whom Torasin immediately joined upon reaching the scene. Extending a muzzle to hers in a gentle affection as he looked upon his children for the first time, marvelling that he had been blessed with twins once again. The first was a stocky looking cremello patterned babe, her markings barely visible against her white coat but he noticed the heart shaped star on her forehead that was much like her mother's. However, the Doctors attention was more concerned with his other daughter, who was much smaller and looked weaker. Her eyes had the tell tale haze of one who could not see, a child born blind. Shock ran across his features before turning into heart breaking sympathy, she looked like Nym in her chestnut tobiano coat, a cute heart forming on her shoulder. Teeth clenched in bitter regret, the gift bestowed upon him by the moon could not stretch to this. The eyes could not be fixed in a series of medical procedures even when aided by magic. It would take a God's infinite power to fix the unfixable. "You bless us Solstice with such beautiful, strong children. What shall we name them?" He asked of her fondly, touching each of his daughters with the affectionate nudge of a father. Silently he felt for the mental link with his bonded.

Watch over her carefully Kiba, be her eyes and keep them both from trouble.

Kiba gave his dragon like salute and flew over to greet the children, bustling around them in excitement. Torasin then lifted his head and headed over to greet Mirage with a fond extending of his nose, happy she was here to calm his nerves and keep him on the right path. "Thank you ma'am! Though I worry over the little one's eyes." He nodded to the wobbly chestnut foal with concern laced into his features for his daughter.
