~stretching limbs to ease the constant ache, aging monarch had been pacing around a small plot of what he still in some ways considered his plain, pace much slower than it had been in his younger years. Not paying attention, limb does not fully extend in a step, and framework sags to the unyielding ground. Breaths do not get much heavier, but eyes narrow as a new sort of pain climbs up from the limb. Trying to shift from lying on his side, he realized that he could not. Something in his mind was screaming for him to try, to continue, but reason told him not to struggle. He had felt it coming for some time now... Breathing normally, neck is stretched slighty, allowing a small range of vision up and to the front of his downed body. Golden coat has faded from a rich gold to a pale yellowish grey. Kind eyes remain clear, just lying there. He knew what was happening, but nothing could be done now. It had already begun. Though perhaps, he hoped deep within his heart, no one would see. They wouldn't have to witness it. Myabe, just maybe, they would all be too wrapped up in their lives. Oh how he hoped. He didn't want to put them through that. They were his family... His herd. And he was proud of them. Deep breaths continue, though he could feel parts of his side going numb from the lack of oxygen not getting up presented. ...It was the begining of the end.~
