In reply to: River Bend 's message, "His immaculate hide was torn and sodden with blood." on 17:07:11 02/03/03 Mon

The chestnut Welsh Cob senses a searing pain within his domain and sends a gentle probing thought out to investigate. Quickly he discovers it is a badly-injured River Bend. Quelling his own shock he forces himself to remain calm, to take on the task at hand. Gently, as non-invasively as possible, he enters the other stallion's mind, releasing waves of soothing warmth into the tormented soul. He gradually shuts down the pain receptors on a temporary basis; River will not hurt while the Queen effects his healing. Calmly the Cob stimulates the areas of the brain that release endorphins, the hormones that create the feeling of being happy. His logic is that if River Bend feels psychologically better he will be able to cope with whatever has happened to him better... and a little extra happiness can never hurt.

Slowly, his endorphine charged alter ego swelled to overpower the cool logic of River's mind. Something like a goofy smile twitched at his normally stoical, pale lips, but there was no other outward sign of life. The absentminded fool now in command of the chestnut's proud thoughts was dancing merrily through an invisible world dominated by rainbows and candy. Deep within his mind, the true River burrowed away, not unlike a bear faced with too harsh a winter.
