Roux had stuck close to his mother's side, minding to keep close to his father as well. He did not need the warning Sacre did with the herbs--for he could not see them. He could only see the movements around him, knowing as others walked in, out, around or in front of the cave. Only as the sun faded behind the mountains and night claimed the valley did Roux begin to see. Although to normal horses his vision would still be impaired, the young colt knew no difference to the greyscale he saw the world in. Now that the night had crawled in, Roux was quick to follow his twin as he slipped from the watchful eyes of their parents.

He was still a long ways off, but he could see the dark form of his brother throttle off into the snow. The stark contrast of the two caused Roux to blink several times, his eyes straining with looking at it for too long. Extending his all-too-long legs into an unbalanced trot, Roux nickered towards his brother. "Watch out, Sacre! I'll get you!" Tossing his small nose into the air, Roux set off at an equally unbalanced canter, heading straight for his brother's dark form.

Skidding into the snow, Roux rolled his front hooves towards Sacre. The colt was much too little to inflict an damage to his brother, and the action was sincerely playful in nature. This was their time to learn and to grow. The twins would grow and learn together, Roux sticking to Sacre's side loyally. He needed him, or mother or father, during the day to see. His only freedom came from the darkness, it was now that he could play with his brother and romp around the herdland that their parents had told them was their's as much as anyone else's. In this freedom, today, Roux would play with his brother. Stretching out his neck, Roux nipped at the darker colt's short mane, bright silver eyes warm and excited.

ROUX
Million stars up in the sky
Formed a tiger's eye
That looked down on my face,
Out of time and out of place
