"I am here, Winterlight." He lands beside her and nuzzles her briefly.
She jerks away. "Don't touch me, 'Night!" she snaps, her usually calm silver eyes blazing with fury.
He pulls back. "Look, Winterlight," he says softly, "It wasn't my fault. Silver Snows was doomed long before I started the rockslude. And that was an accident."
"An accident?" She snorts. "Real likely!" She stares at him, tears beggining to form in her eyes. "And what of Spring? Was that an accident?!"
"No," he whispers, shame in his voice. "I didn't know she was yours-"
Winterlight cuts him off. "That doesn't matter!" She shouts. "There is no excuse, no excuse, for killing a foal!" She leaps into the air. "I don't know why I'm wasting my time like this."
"Wait!" Winternight calls. "I didn't come here to hurt you. There was something else... them." He nods to the silent, staring fillies.
Winterlight sees them for the first time. "What?" she says softly, landing again. "Who...."
"I found them," he murmurs. "I- I wanted to make up for Spring. That's why I came here; to bring them to you."
She shakes her head. "Oh, 'Night.... I can't take them. I want to, but.... My TT is at war. And our enemy is Evil and unknown. They want to enslave us; I can't put foals in that kind of danger."
"Then leave the TT!" he says. "Find another. You shouldn't be involved in that sort of mess in the first place."
"But I am," Winterlight says solemnly. "And... well, I'm going to stick it out. For my friends. Keep them, 'Night, at least for now. That might just make up for Spring."
Winternight nods. "Come along then, girls." He turns to leave, the fillies following him.
"Wait!" the mare calls. "What are their names?"
"Winterwind and Wintersong," the stallion calls over his shoulder.
Winterlight smiles faintly, then flies away.
