The silver filly cantered into the terra of the Royals. She had heard that whatever the Queen had told her about before was now starting. She halted her not-so-graceful motion and looked around for a familiar face.

Miniature fem of similar hue to that of the first approaching followed closely on her friends heels. Nudging her friend's side in a friendly manner, she sighed and looked around as well. This place was awesome. She took a step forward, looking for the Queen, or someone to tell them what was going on, and when.

[> Welcome -- Daughter of Light, 01:13:39 07/10/03 Thu [1]

The golden mare gives herself a thorough shake, dispelling most of the water from her coat. There is always business to be done, and time would not halt for her to grieve the loss of her mate and her King. Noticing the arrival of two fillies, she trots over, ignoring her own disheveled appearance. "Welcome to Paradise Isle," the noble mare intones gently. "I am Daughter of Light. I assume that you are here for a chance to be Queen?" She pauses for a moment before going on. "Make yourself at home while we wait for the other fillies to arrive. Shazaam, my son, was just crowned King; you might want to meet him while you are here."

The silver filly nodded. Having before met the Queen, she cocked her head, a little confused. ~~My Lady, I don;t mean to umm, intrude, but, please, I thought that Steel Dream was King of the Lights, what happened? Is everything all right?~~ Her voice held genuine concern. Naturally caring by nature, she had always ached to help those in pain, mentally or physically.

Caught off guard by the sudden inquiry, the aged mare looks sharply at the silver one. Her expression fades, however, when she notices that the speaker is sincerely concerned. With a vague smile, she answers, "Everything is fine. Steel Dream decided that it was time for him to leave this place, and so he did. Ultimately, it is probably for the better, but still I will miss him dearly."

The silver filly barely flinched under the sharp glare. She had sen worse. Hearing the words, she smiled reassuringly. ~~I know how you feel, a little I guess. My father left when I wasn't even a yearling, then showed up a little while ago, for a few days, then vanished again. Don't be sad, of course you miss him, and I'll bet he misses you too. Answer me this, if he were still here, would he want to see you sad all the time? I don't know him, I have only seen from a distance, but I don't think he would. Not the Steel Dream that I remember.~~ She looked up at the mare sadly. She knew, to a degree what must be going through her mind.

She gives a slight dip of her crown in response. "Yes, I believe you are right. He would never wish for me to be sad, especially for him." With quiet wonder, she looks at the filly carefully. She had seen more in her comparatively short life than a filly should have to see, but it had given her wisdom. "I'm sorry, but I must be off to greet the other fillies. We will talk more later." With that, she turns gracefully and picks up an easy trot to where another knot of fillies waited.

The silven filly watched quietly as the other left, livid orbs toned down a bit with sadness at this mare's pain. No one should have to go through such pain, ever. But alas, that was life. It gave, and it took away, however it saw fit. With a short sigh, she returned to grazing, nickering to her friend in reassurance.

The smaller filly of similar hue grabbed a mouthful of grass and chewed thoughtfully. Nickering to her friend, she nudged her flank, and bolted, challenging her to a game of tag. ~You're it!~~
