Try snapping the tar, one horse who's name eluded her spoke out. Artemis struggled, kicking back with powerful legs until, at last, the frozen tar snapped and gave way under the force. As she turned, her eyes fell upon the fallen horse and snapped over the deer with wide eyes. Is this what it took to save one small, seemingly insignificant orb? The wounds on those surrounded her were vivid under the soft glow of the deers horns as the tar hardened and crumbled under her movements. Death had stopped its onslaught, it seemed, yet the unicorn was still on edge. Her banner twitched and her ears span, waiting for the screams of darkness to arise once again.

She heard nothing but the breathing and hushed voices of those around her.

No screams. No death. It was over.

Her body burned as she pulled her four pillars from the hardened dust, stamping a heavy hoof upon the vile substance. It crumbled like charcoal beneath her weight, lodging into her hooves and staining her ivory pelt. It seemed as if this journey had been one of only loss, however as she moved her gaze, the light seemed, if only for a moment, to brighten upon the doe's brow. She spoke softly, voice barely a whisper; What does it mean to love, as a mother to a child?" she asks them. "Tell me true, for I will know if you lie." Artemis did not know what love was, nor had she ever had the opportunity to love a child.

She was loveless. She had no right to raise a child. The fawn deserved much more than she could offer. With a heavy heart, she moved closer to the small gathering, her body throbbing and burning, yet she felt almost numb to it. She remained quiet for a moment, yet she knew if she thought to hard the words would become a lie - calculated and robotic. Instead, she closed her eyes.

Her mothers face was blurred and distorted, yet the love she had for her mother had been vast. She was her protector, her best friend, her teacher, and despite the ups and downs, she would never stop loving that mare. She smiled softly to herself. Love is eternal and unconditional, not something you can turn on and off as you wish, where the happiness of another person is essential to your own. You might fight and you might not always get on, but in the end, you are there for them. My mother was my best friend. I only hope that someone else might view me in the same way I saw her." She murmured, almost shyly. Knowing that this child would not be able to see her true mother in that light saddened the unicorn, yet if she was chosen, she would sing songs about the brave, beautiful doe who died protecting the one she loved.
