Sweet -- The Pasture

Her audits twitched indirectly, the sound of hooves a little more eminent as the sounds grew louder, and the vibrations that rushed through the ground met her body. But, she couldn't move. Liliha was too exhausted to even open her eyes. Every bit and speck of energy had been put into making it bac, and she had. Luckily, she hadn't broken any bones on the way, as she swore. Fear began to arise in her heart, closing her throat to speech, and heightening her senses. Smells entered her nares, something familiar, but that was not enough to calm her. If it had been Sage, she would've instantly called, "mewing" as she had done as a child. But no, this was a, a stag, and as far as she knew, from her life away from Eccentric Rampage, stags were not the most caring, and mares, at times, could match their viciousness. In some cases, mares could be 10x worse... a thought to ponder on, but not a memory to hold onto.

The only white on her body twitched, an effort to get herself away from what was coming to get her. Ooids fluttered open, rolling to expose the white on the side of her eyes. Seeing the brute closing distance, panic and fear spasmed through her body, though with this first wave, she did not move. Lids, weighted by exhaustion and the urge to sleep, dropped slwoly, though she fought to keep them open, so she could see. Being blind scared her. What she couldn't see was an enemy.. it was dangerous. It was getting closer, she could smell him.. familiar.. she could hear him breathing. she could feel him touch her. FEEL HIM?!?! Oh no....

With a shrill whinny of shock and fear, her bodiance spasmed, limbs flailing in a successful attempt to grasp the ground. Sidestepping, she fell again, toppling over herself, only to roll back onto her feet with a straining pull of her neck. The wiry hairs of her nack and forehead tosse wildly, as her ooids went white with fear. Her breathes, slowed gently, and her trembling soon eased. Audits swiveled, catching his words. General?...... Nares flared, inhaling his scent. Midnight hued ooids locked on his own, seeing his heart. Shadow shakily turned, to face him. Her pate did not dip to protect her neck, as she had no fear of him attacking. The dull sense of caution still lingered, because there was a missing piece of information.

" Y. Yes Im fine.. Im Liliha.. "

Her voice surprised her.... it had become more full.. more "marelike". She wasn't a filly anymore.. She was a mare.. She had grown up. It had been years since she heard her own voice, because, in her solitude, she never did turn to talking to herself. Cloak shivered to rid herself of the winged pests, that in actuality, werent even there. It was more of a reflex and a habit. Snorting softly, she urged her voice to work, her maw to open, and her vocal chords to produce some sound.

" Do you know of... Sage? "

Again, for the life of her, she could not remember the names of the two others she had held dearly as a mere filly. Shameful... She did not remember the one who housed her and her mother...... She did not remember the old mare whom had spoken to her so wisely. Disrespectful.
