Isles of Somewhere | Sequel Rp

     Nysa looked over seeing Minette had come out of the trees. A small wave of relief came over her knowing Minette was alright. It had been a little while since she last saw her, and she knew Minette should deliver her foal anytime now. Though Nysa had only looked over at her mother as she was still asleep, but she did move around slightly. More then likely just adjusting herself into a more comfortable position, but she didn't move around much.

     Orion had fallen asleep beside Solstice. He almost seemed angered at the sight of his parents. A side of him no one has really even seen before. He never got angered or defensive. It was a good thing that Solstice didn't see any of it..that she didn't know anything. Probably best since she didn't need to be stressed or worried at the time. Hopefully she'd be better that next day.

     Though Nysa was just watching her parents and her new sister for a bit that she almost didn't even realize Minette had come over to her. She just seemed distracted by everything. It had been an eventful day, and she even seemed a bit tired, but she knew she couldn't fall asleep. She had to look after her parents especially with everything going on, but she looked at Minette a small smile coming across her face.

     Nysa could tell that Minette wanted to say something, but didn't want to wake Solstice, "She won't wake up..she has a couple times, but she's just gone right back to sleep.." she said in a quieter tone, "Probably won't actually wake up until tomorrow." she said as she looked at Minette again. "What is it that you want?" she asked after she stood back up and stretched her wings slightly.

     Though Nysa was a bit confused by Minette's question. She was more of expecting a question about what had been going on, but Nysa's attention went elsewhere as she looked over at her mother again. The filly seemed to have woken up as she tried getting up on her long legs as Solstice's wing was still over her. Nysa just smiled a bit before she stepped over and gently nuzzled the filly.

     "Can't have you waking mother up." Nysa said softly and quietly. The filly seemed to just lay back down with her sister's touch. Well not that she really even got up on her hooves entirely. Nysa sighed as she made sure the filly just stayed put before she brought her attention back to Minette, "We aren't really foals anymore, but I would like to..just is that a good idea? Wouldn't want anything to happen to your foal..my mother got lucky today..thanks to that snake mare she'll be alright. Plus I apparently have grandparents.." she said but none of them knew what was going to happen that night.

"You are right.. I might as well be resting as I'll be waiting for my foal.. Whenever- it arrives.." Minette was nervous and that she was nervous about delivering her first foal, but she had experienced mares to help her out whenever she was gonna have that foal.

"Well.. Goodbye for now.. And protect your little sister to the best you can Nysa.. She'll be expecting play time when she gets to understand a little better when she ages a little more.." Minette spoke softly to Nysa, she then began walking away as she seemed to have found a good spot somewhere to rest up.

Eclipsetess was still overlooking everyone, she hadn't even realize that she was on top of a hill for the most part, but she did eventually go back to grazing and watching her foals as they usually zipped between the meadow and the tree line as the titan watched as he had gotten mad but let it go for Eclipsetess.

She did then call her foals over to her before trotting down to the rest of where the herd was, even so far as making checks to everyone here, while Esmeray was being goofy and rolling around somewhere in the grass, he even tried to dress up as the grass fell from his back since he tried to look extremely goofy and funny for Nysa.

But the idea didn't work as Esmeray just went to roll around normally, he wanted to make Nysa smile, he wanted her to be happy even though she was happy to where she was, but she'd eventually need the rest and that Esmeray didn't go near her since he let Nysa do her own things instead of go to her like a puppy being interested in something.

     Nysa let out a small quiet sigh as she stepped over to Minette and nuzzled her, "Let me know if you need anything alright? You know I'm here for you. All of us are." she said knowing she was nervous about having the foal, "I'll be right there with you when it's time alright? It can be scary, but you'll be a great mother. I just know it." she said a small smile forming on her face as she nibbled on Minette's forelock a bit.

     Though Nysa just looked back at her sister as she was still awake just staying put, "I'll do my best. Right now I just have to put her back to sleep..which I'm not too sure how.." she said since she had very little experience with foals since she was the youngest for a few years. Nysa did nuzzle Minette goodbye, "Let me know if you need anything." she said just before Minette went to go lay down to rest.

     Nysa then went back to her sister and quietly hummed a soft tune as the little filly eventually went back to sleep which took a little bit. Though Nysa then went to lay back down afterwards as she stretched her wings. Oh how she would love to go fly right now, but she had to stay with her family which was more important. Nysa did look over seeing Esmeray goofing off.

     She wanted to be with him, but she was needed where she was. He did make her let out a small quiet giggle, "Goofball," she quietly said to herself before she laid her head down and closed her eyes. She needed sleep, but she also had to get up throughout the night to check on her mother and sister. Just to make sure nothing would happen overnight. Though it didn't take Nysa long to fall asleep.

     Though when the young stallion, Apollo, had fallen asleep and no one else seemed to be watching them, so he took his chance. He teleported himself deep into the trees being sure not to wake Althea. He wasn't going to accept his son's behavior. Though he hid deep into the trees until the moon was high up in the dark night sky. He quietly made his way back over to the meadow as he peeked out.

     Everyone was still asleep. Even Namir since he exhausted himself a bit. Diablo just kept his ears pinned as he stepped out of the brush before he teleported himself and his son back into the trees..deep into them. Orion suddenly woke as he looked around before looking at his father snorting, "What are you doing!? I'm not a colt anymore!" he snorted yelling a bit, "I'm not going anywhere with you or doing anything you say. I have a family to care for and protect. Something you could never do." Orion said angered.

     Diablo snorted, "You are my son. You're doing exactly what I say." he snorted angrily preventing Orion from leaving any time soon. Though it wasn't too terribly long until morning came. The early morning sun had begun to rise. Nysa ended up sleeping all night even if she didn't plan on it, but Solstice was the first one to wake that morning. Once she did, she saw Nysa asleep before she lifted her wing bringing it back to her side seeing her filly asleep.

     Though she then looked around seeing no sign of Orion, but she saw a mare she didn't recognize asleep. Only she looked a lot like Orion just without the tobiano. "Orion!?" she yelled a bit knowing he wouldn't of left her side unless something was wrong. Though Nysa awoke when her mother yelled and looked at her seeing her father gone. Namir woke as well, but Nysa just made sure her mother stayed put.

     Namir immediately went to find Scorn, "There's no sign of Orion or his father. His mother is still here..she has nothing to do with this.." he said once he found Scorn. Though Althea was asleep until Solstice yelled her son's name. She looked around seeing no sign of her mate or her son. What did Diablo do? Althea slowly got up on her hooves as she was worried, but she stayed put not wanting to cause anymore trouble..

"The titan will find them.. You know he brings back horses lost deep into the forest. He'll do the very samething every time." Scorn spoke, he spoke of knowledge and when Scorn looked over to where the titan rested: he wasn't there, no blocks into the trail, he really was already looking for Diablo and Orion like Scorn said.

Though once the titan found Diablo and Orion, he picked the two horses up; he was shadowy and black, so he had picked up the horses bit their tails, just like what he did with Eclipsetess, Azulia, and Cronsi. And that the titan stepped out of the forest and had put Diablo next to Althea as the titan put Orion back with his family..

Though the titan said nothing, he only then walked back to his spot where he blocked the trail for anyone thinking of going to walk ahead and find where the end of the path led, Eclipsetess woke up when her two foals jumped onto her, and she had gotten up and started playing with them- to keep busy so that they wouldn't watch what was happening over with Orion and his family.

But Eclipsetess eventually put her two foals with a mare or two to watch them, play, and nap them down, and then she trotted over next to Namir, worried and that she stood next him since she wanted to be protective and that Eclipsetess stood right into Orion's family, maybe a little back so that she wasn't directly above Solstice or her filly..

Minette then got up as well since she seemed to be needing up, but Eclipsetess only tried getting her to lay back down, but it didn't work as Minette pulled herself up and walked back over to Nysa as Eclipsetess trotted, along Diablo and Althea must have at least been stunned at what happened as the two stallions were brought back to the meadow, but separated so that there was no fight..

     Namir gave a small nod, "I'll keep a look out..who knows what that stallion is up to.." he said knowing he could have prevented this if he had kept a better eye on them. Apollo looked over at Namir and Scorn before he just went to the far side of the meadow. Namir watched him out of the corner of his eye, but he finished speaking with Scorn before he started keeping an eye out.

     Orion just stood a distance from his father clearly tensed and angered. Diablo had never really done anything like this before, so it would explain why he just made Orion stay with him without doing anything else. Though Orion didn't really even try getting away. He knew the titan would be looking for them, but he said nothing. A small smile came across his face once the titan arrived, but he only gave Diablo quite the glare.

     Solstice was still worried and freaking out slightly as Nysa was doing her best to keep her calm and relaxed, "Who is that mare? What is going on?" she asked knowing something was wrong, "Where is Orion?" Nysa just sighed looking around unsure if she should answer those first two questions, but she knew it would be best if she didn't answer any of them. None of them knew where he was.

     Though Althea was relieved to see Diablo again, but she just nipped him a bit hard as she pinned her ears snorting, "What on earth were you thinking? You really think whatever you did was going to help? That's our son! What's gotten into you!?" she snorted clearly unhappy with him, "Now there's absolutely no chance of getting to know our granddaughters. To be a part of their lives."

     Solstice looked over seeing the titan come out of the brush as she saw Orion with him which relieved her. "Orion!" Orion just started calming her once the Titan let him down. The filly was even nervous and scared because of everything. "What happened? Who is that mare and stallion? What's going on?" she asked thankful that he was alright, but she wanted to know what was going on.

     Orion sighed a bit hesitant to tell her everything, but before he said anything, he nuzzled the filly softly to help her relax before he turned his attention back to Solstice, "They're my parents...apparently they've been looking for me because I never came back, but you know why I don't trust them...i-it's nothing.." he said just glad to be back with his family, "How do you feel?"

     Solstice just looked over at Althea and Diablo, "Y-you're parents? But- how??" Solstice never thought she would even see them. Orion only told her about them once right after the fire. Though she was just thankful he was alright as she eventually settled down and calmed herself. Solstice just sighed, "Still tired and sore..in some pain, but I'm doing better.." she said in a quieter tone. 

     Diablo just snorted, "I was trying to get some sense into our son." he snorted, "He has no right to treat us like this. To embarrass us like that." he said watching them. Though Althea seemed mad at him..furious with him, but she didn't know what to do. She wanted to apologize for everything, but she knew she wouldn't be allowed anywhere near them. That Diablo made things worse.

     Orion just nuzzled her glad to know she was doing better, but Solstice just needed to get up on her hooves. Orion and Nysa protested against it, but then they had just helped her up. Solstice felt some relief as she got up once again allowing the filly to nurse again. Namir was just keeping a close eye on Diablo before he looked at Eclipsetess and Minette following them over to his sister and her family. "You alright sis?" he asked checking in with her.

     Solstice nodded, "I'm doing better Namir. I'll be fine." she said before she tended to the filly since she hadn't had the chance to yet. Let alone get a good look at her. Though after a few minutes she just looked at everyone, "What are we going to do...? If he took Orion I don't trust them around the little one let alone Nysa..or even me for that matter.." she admitted at the end before she looked at Orion.

     Orion sighed as he looked down, "I....don't know, but I'm going to make sure they don't go anywhere near you guys." he said nuzzling her to reassure her. Even he didn't know what to do. He knew that a fight would break out if he were to approach his parents, but he looked over at them seeing his mother outraged. Not with him, but his father... If anything she was more trusting then his father was at this point.

Eclipsetess was silent, just nothing that was hearing what was happening, like she was invisible but she didn't mind.. But she did walk away or to see how her foals were doing, that and because she shouldn't be there any longer, but Eclipsetess went to see Minette since she was also gone from Orion's liitle family..

[ltr]"Why can't my daughter ever stay somewhere..?" Eclipsetess spoke to herself, she began looking for Minette around the herd, her little spot that Eclipsetess found on accident, and anywhere else in general, at least to see if she went to take a nap somewhere since she seemed to be getting weak when she's nearing her foaling.[/ltr]

[ltr]"The last foal for a little while, until Nysa feels right and ready to say anything with Esmeray.." Eclipsetess teased Nysa and Esmeray as she was looking around for Minette, Eclipsetess then trotted to her foals as Eclipsetess found Minette taking a nap with them, Minette with her two siblings now.. It was adorable.[/ltr]

[ltr]Eclipsetess smiled and happily, quietly, trotted over to Minette sleeping, though Blue Arches and Golden Dawn looked up at their mother as they had their little tails wagging about happily, Eclipsetess then nuzzled her two foals as she looked back at Minette, who was napping and keeping her siblings safe.[/ltr]

"Already protecting them like you should.. You'll be a proud mother Minette.. Even if anyone would be mad and disgraceful for your foal.." Eclipsetess quietly soft spoke to Minette, she already knew Minette's unborn foal's father and that she knew Minette wouldn't like to say who her foals father would be- if that question ever came to be, but Moon wouldn't be alone as she would have Minette: a future single mother with her foal, either filly or colt, and that would be awesome to hear as Moon could teach a future single mother Minette about everything to be a single mother about.

     Solstice was worried and a little bit scared about things, but most of it was because she was still recovering. Nysa had stood beside her when she realized Solstice still wasn't the best on her hooves with her balance. Solstice nuzzled her softly grateful to have her as a daughter, but Solstice then looked over seeing Eclipsetess walking back over to her foals. Seemed like things were just different in the herd since the last day or two.

     Orion sighed trying to think about what he was going to do next. They were his parents. This was for him to deal with. He felt responsible in a way. Even though he couldn't have known they were looking for him after all these years. Though for now, Orion stayed with his family. Namir stayed with them as well keeping a close eye on Diablo. Whether he liked it or not Orion was family, and he knew Orion wasn't the best at well fighting or anything of the sort. 

     Though Althea seemed to distance herself from Diablo. She normally wouldn't distance herself from him, but what he did would never sit right with her. Althea even turned her back to him. Diablo looked at her his ears lowered before he looked down. He wanted to approach her, but didn't have anything to say. That or anything he would say didn't matter. Althea just stood with her head lowered. There were so many thoughts running through her head and emotions she was feeling..

     Solstice wanted to keep standing on her hooves, but after a little bit, she just had to lay back down. At least she was up long enough for the filly to be able to nurse for a bit. Solstice got comfortable before she started tending to her filly some more trying to occupy herself. Orion watched her for a moment before he looked over at his parents. Eventually he let out a sigh, "I'll be back.." he said before he started walking over.

     Solstice looked at him before looking at Namir. Namir just reassured her before he followed Orion just in case Diablo tried anything else, but he kept a small distance. Orion stood a small distance from his father once he approached him, "Leave. If I had wanted to see you again I would have come back, but I never did. I have a family now, and I can't just leave them. Besides they aren't any better than him when it comes to being protective," he said talking about Namir. Namir just gave a small nod.

     Diablo snorted quietly once he saw the two stallions approach...only the bay stallion stayed back a bit. Though he just looked at Althea who seemed to be watching and listening in a little bit. He was quiet..at least for now. "I said leave. You aren't welcome here. With what you did..how am I supposed to know my family is safe with you around? I can't. At least mother cared more than you did." he snorted.

     Though Diablo just looked over at Althea as she just turned back around and looked down. Not a word came from him, but he gave Orion and Namir each a look before he just quickly fled. Orion watched him leave before he looked at his mother. The titan would make sure he actually left. Orion walked over to his mother nuzzling her shoulder a bit, "Mom..? You ok..?" he asked.

      Althea flinched slightly at her son's touch. She wasn't used to it..or him asking if she was alright regarding everything that happened since the day before. She just looked at him for a moment before she looked back down, "Orion...I'm sorry I wasn't the best mother...we just wanted you to be able to protect and take care of yourself if you ever went on your own. We all know it's not going to be safe all the time..I just..wish I could start over..a-and I'm sorry about what your father did...I-i had no idea he was going to do anything..."

      Orion just looked down for a moment. Even though he wasn't the happiest with how he was raised, she wasn't the one he should have been mad at. His father was more of a problem. "Mom...i-it's okay..that's the past alright? I can't always be mad at you for the past..in a way I'm who I am today because of you." he said softly nuzzling her again to help relax her and let her know that is was alright before he stepped back and looked at Solstice, "Come on.." he said in a quieter tone before he turned around and started walking back over to his family giving a small nod to Namir telling him it was alright.

The titan just followed Diablo, until he was sure that the wolves in the neighboring Isle made sure he would leave Isle of Dreams and Isle of Ice as well, even the alpha came out to watch the stallion zoom by in the freezing cold Isle next to a warm and bright sunny Isle, barriers that the titan and alpha thought: things that keep Isles separated to have their own weather was interesting really..

But as the titan walked back to the herds, to make sure that there was no unknown stallion around, but he did walk over to the mare with Orion as her company, and that the titan decides to sit down and protect the two: out in the open, the titan was sitting out in the open and just staying there as content as could be...

"I hope my presence doesn't bother the two of you.." the titan tells the two, he does eventually look around before looking back at Orion and the mare, he didn't know the mares name but he believed her to be Orion's mother, same coat as families do share a single or more common thing..

The titan eventually got up and moved to the forest as tons of horses were watching him leave to go protect in the woods, then everyone returned to their normal grazing, normal stuff, and ya da ya da.. Eclipsetess was still confused on why the titan decided to protect Orion and his mother out in the open..

Eclipsetess was still confused before refocusing on her own things: her two foals that are always playing with each other, however the two would play, but the twins knew not to rough house so hard or else Eclipsetess would've taught the two both a lesson..

And the twins didn't like their mother's lectures on life, sometimes they would be interested, but other times they did not and that Eclipsetess had to show them a meaning of how it meant to be.. Even though it was tiring of Eclipsetess to teach  her two foals all the time, but she only did it to have them learn their lesson appropriately..

     Diablo knew he was being chased. He could feel it. He didn't need to look back, but he knew it was no horse. It must have been the titan. At that point he wanted nothing to do with the titan and just ran. Now he was running just to get away. Diablo wasn't always like this, but something in him was changing. He would have never taken his son like he did years ago. Althea almost didn't recognize him.

     Though Althea looked at her son seeing him take a few steps towards his family, but she was reluctant as she looked over where her mate had run off. What was to come of him? What was going to happen to the stallion that she fell in love with? Orion stopped looking back at his mother. Althea just looked at him keeping her head lowered slightly, "A-are you sure...? Even after being the horrible mother I was to you..?"

     Orion looked at her before he looked at the titan figuring his father was long gone by now, "No it doesn't." he said as Althea just kept her head lowered. Orion sighed as he looked at his mother, "That was the past mom. Sure I may not..forgive you entirely, but they deserve to know their grandmother. Other then dad..your the only grandparents they have.." he said as he looked over at his family, "And I know you want a second chance...this is it.." he said as Althea just smiled a bit and nuzzled her son before he led her to the others.

     Solstice was grooming her filly a bit while getting a good look at her. She was surprised to see the black wings upon her back. Though she was trying to think of some possible names, but she couldn't think too much since she had a small headache. Solstice and Nysa looked up to see Orion coming back over, but with his mother following behind him. The filly seemed to perk up wanting to run to her father, but Solstice had other ideas, "Stay here little one. You're not leaving my side just yet." she said softly. Though it wasn't because of Althea..it was because she still had to recover and even the filly. 

     Nysa just looked at her father then Althea. Solstice did as well once she made sure the filly was settled down, "It's..nice to finally meet you.." she said trying to spark a conversation, "Orion never spoke of you much, but it would be good for our daughters to know at least one of their grandparents." she said forming a small smile. Nysa was quiet at least for now. She just never knew she had grandparents that were well..alive.

     Though Nysa looked at her mother, "You know we can always visit your parents up in the heavens...you know I've been wanting to meet them.." she said. Solstice let out a small sigh as she looked up a bit. She just told Nysa she would meet them one day, but not today. Nysa just gave a small nod before she looked at her grandmother, "It-'s nice to meet you..." she eventually said unsure of what to say really.

     Althea smiled a bit when she saw the filly, but she didn't intrude at all. She wanted that second chance. Though she looked at Solstice and gave a small nod, "I'm not one worth being spoken of, but...I want to change that." she said telling the truth as she looked at her son. Though she looked at Nysa then Solstice. She was curious by what they meant knowing only gods and goddesses can go up to the heavens, but she didn't ask knowing it wasn't her place.

     Though Namir watched them for a little bit before he went back over to Eclipsetess and the others. He might have been keeping a small eye on Althea, but it seemed Orion had figured out what to do. Namir did look at Minette as she slept letting out a quiet sigh. He worried about her. Why wouldn't he? Though Moon seemed to have started keeping a closer eye on Minette. Like she was watching over her like a mother should. Like Eclipsetess, she knew. She knew it more then she would like to.

     What Moon worried about was the future for the foal...and Minette. What would the herd do when they found out? What would they do to Minette? She knew this all too well with her son Apollo. Not just that she had to raise him without his father, but because of who his father was. Apollo was only rejected because he was born earlier then he should have been, and because he was small and weak because of it. Minette's foal had a much worse father...a tyrant. She feared about what Nysa would do or react even..

Minette snorted before waking up and getting up, or at least tried too, she was pressuring herself to get up, and that Eclipsetess would only put her back to laying down.. Because it was only time before the foal was born anyways.. That and Eclipsetess would wonder about Minette and her future.. Would Scorn kick Minette out? No he wouldn't.. He always promised to keep the mares with the worst pasts and try to help them..

"Its only beginning to be time.." Eclipsetess whispered, Minette tried getting up and had a surprisingly successful getting up, though Eclipsetess grew worried about Minette moving around so much, and that she needed a comfortable spot to lay in before it was only time..

"Minette.. Please lay down.. Its only gonna be time for you to foal.." Eclipsetess spoke, talking some sense into Minette at least, but she only scowled before laying back in her spot that she was in, and that she had begone waiting until it was time, and that the snake mare wasn't around. So it wouldn't be a worry-ful birth at all.. Only to Eclipsetess as she would worry.. About everything really..

"I thought of a name.. But I had forgotten it.. Oh wait I remember! If I was gonna have a colt, I'd name him.. Necros.. And a filly would named.. Luceras. Necros for magic and Luceras for light.. Guiding Light.. That's what I want Luceras to be defined as a name.." Minette spoke, she had already thought of foal names quickly, or that she was only waiting until Moon, Eclipsetess, and Namir were together again.

"Those sound like lovely names Minette.. Including Luceras for "guiding light", its a perfect name.." Eclipsetess said, only proud of her daughter at coming up with beautiful names for a colt or for a filly, but it would only be before Minette would start foaling, until she felt like that: nothing happened for the meanwhile..

     Namir had nuzzled Eclipsetess knowing she was worried about Minette and the foal, but he was too. It was only natural. Well at least for Namir. Though he still kept a bit of an eye on Althea just in case. He knew that Diablo would come back one day, but he didn't worry about that now. He also didn't want to worry anyone knowing it wouldn't be anytime soon. Right now his main focus was his daughter.

     Though Moon wasn't too far away. She didn't want to intrude, but she was watching over Minette. Namir noticed, but said nothing. Moon just grazed a little bit while occasionally looking over at Minette. Even Apollo was in the distance watching his mother knowing she was watching Minette closely now, but he knew something was up because of it. He thought about asking him mom, but he figured he shouldn't.

     When Minette had woken up, Namir just sighed, "Minette don't force yourself to get up. It's better for you to just stay where you are laying down." he said nuzzling her a bit. He was only worried for her, and trying to care for her the best he could. The thought of him becoming a grandpa never even crossed his mind. Not once. Though boy would he be surprised once he finally realizes it.

     Though Namir did smile a bit, "They're wonderful names Minette." he said before he looked over at his sister, "It'll probably take her a few days to come up with a name, but I know she's actually trying to rest and recover. Not being so stubborn like she normally is." he said even though being stubborn seemed to run in the family. Though Eclipsetess would more then likely call him out on it.

     Though he was right. Solstice was primarily resting. She mainly only got up to let the filly nurse. Either way Solstice was happy to get to know Althea. Nysa was curious of her, but Solstice had ended up bringing her attention from Althea to Nysa, "Nysa you should really be with Esmeray. Me and your sister will be fine." she said lightly nudging Nysa, "Go on. We're not going anywhere."

     Nysa just looked at her mother before she looked at Esmeray. She knew she wasn't going to give her much of a choice, "Alright..I'll..check on you in a little bit." she said nuzzling her and her sister before she got up and walked over to Esmeray nuzzling him before she brushed herself against him. She did miss him, but she wasn't lying when she said she would check on her mother in a little bit. Being Nature's apprentice taught her a lot of useful things revolving around sicknesses and injuries and ways to heal them.

     Althea kept quiet for a moment before she watched her granddaughter walk away over to a stallion. One she figured was her mate with the way they interacted. Though she looked at her son and his mate, "She's beautiful..you both raised her well.." she said before she looked at the filly who had been trying to get used to her legs while her mother did her best to keep her beside her. "Have you figured out a name yet..?" she asked hesitantly unsure if she was overstepping.

Minette sighed in the peace, knowing that her foal was coming soon, just unknowning when her foal will be here.. And Eclipsetess was worried but calm, she was calm when the snake mare wasn't in the herd and that nothing was gonna go wrong with Minette's foal..

Even though Eclipsetess kept being worried, so worried that Eclipsetess couldn't pick up her wings as they were heavy with worry, and that Eclipsetess kept her wings onto the ground, worried and scared in general.. But she did stop worrying so bad as her foals noticed their mother worry, so they began trying to a little playful with her: like they understood her emotion and tried getting her distracted.. Like how she was when Eclipsetess was a foal close to their age..

"Alright little ones, I'll stop worrying so much and play with you.." Eclipsetess told her foals, she did nuzzle them both before trotting as her foals began running all over, like when Esmeray does when he's just so excited to do something.. Getting rid of excess energy..



Esmeray nuzzled Nysa once she brushed up against, he was grazing when he usually messes around with excitment, so he must be thinking of something when he had put some up gently to Nysa, putting some on her back brushing the grass away as he nuzzled her that way.. A sneaky stallion~

Though he did nuzzle Nysa normally too, still grazing as he was happy as always, even more so as he had just sighed in the calmness, maybe even calling Nysa beautiful in his eyes to her, he was right, Althea was right, everyone was right when they say that Nysa is just gorgeous..

"How's it going? I'm asking about you; your mother and father, and your new sister in general.." Esmeray asked to Nysa out of worry and kindness, he was worrying about Nysa, even her family as well.. What a sweet stallion that he was for being so kind to Nysa..

     Namir knew Eclipsetess was worrying probably more then he was which was very odd. Though he could easily tell with the way she drooped her wings letting them touch the ground. He didn't say anything cause he was worried as well. He did smile a bit when Eclipsetess decided to play with the foals for a bit, "Maybe in a day or two they can play with their new cousin. It'd be good for them." he said as he glanced over at his new niece. 

     Nysa smiled when she was with Esmeray. She did miss him since it had been a day or two since she spent some time with him. Though she had just been busy. Mainly looking after her mother. Though now she did look over at Minette often. She meant it when she said she would be right there with her when it was time for her to have her foal, but for now she just relaxed spending time with the stallion she loved.

     She did giggle a bit when Esmeray put some grass on her back. Nysa just nibbled on his mane a bit, "Goofball." she teased before she nuzzled him back. Though she blushed slightly when he called her beautiful even though she knew it. Her coat was like no one else's. She thought her coat was a bit..odd, but she always wondered if it had any meaning to it since she knew some markings had a meaning. Maybe one day she would figure it out.

     Though Nysa just laid her head on top of his withers for a few minutes before she looked at her family, "I'm doing fine..maybe a little tired and stressed, but I'm fine." she said before she paused, "My mom is still recovering she's still in some pain and she's still weak, but hopefully she'll be pretty much fine by the end of the day tomorrow..my sister just seems a little weak as well, but it doesn't seem to stop her much."

     Nysa then looked at her father and her grandmother, "I..don't really know about my father..I never saw him mad or even defensive like he was, but I didn't even know I had grandparents that were well..alive until yesterday..it's a little overwhelming with everything that happened with my family since yesterday. Though Minette could practically foal at any time now too.." she said looking over at her cousin.

     Solstice smiled as she looked over at Nysa as she was with Esmeray, "She is..." she said remembering when she saw Nysa for the first time after she was born, "Time flies..feels like she was just a little filly." she said, but she was proud of who Nysa had become. She knew that Asher got in her head sometimes, but not like Dra did with Solstice. Solstice was glad that Nysa didn't seem to struggle like she did. 

     Though Solstice then brought her attention back to her little filly beside her using her wing to direct her back to her side since she was about to wander off, "You're not going to go too far on those wobbly legs." she said softly as she nuzzled the little filly before she sighed, "Haven't really thought of any names yet. The right name will come at some point." she said. Though Solstice was still confused about the wings, and the fact that the filly had magic strong enough everyone around her could feel it. Most pegasi didn't have magic. Solstice only wondered about her future wondering if Faith knew anything or not.

Minette slightly moved before stopping as Eclipsetess looked at her, Minette did not move and Eclipsetess walked up to her and nuzzled her daughter's stomach, being as caring as Eclipsetess could be before she backed up and softly stared at Minette: Eclipsetess's daughter was a mare with a task now.. Well after the time comes..

"I feel.. So uncomfortable.. Is that what auntie Solstice goes through..?" Minette asked, Eclipsetess sighed and looked at Solstice before looking at her daughter, sure she nodded to not worry Minette any further.. But Eclipsetess did it so that she could worry less herself..

"..Ow.." Minette randomly had spoken, and that's when Eclipsetess called the mares over, she knew the sound of pain when Minette had said it: She was foaling now.. And that Eclipsetess had went over to Minette's stomach and gently pressed a little hard: as Minette's stomach was hard.. It was time.. But now? Yes..

As Eclipsetess then calmed down and told the mares what to do, Minette's unborn foal couldn't wait any longer and was ready as it caughr Minette off guard, but she was now ready: to have her foal.. Even though it was gonna be a long and hard painful process for Minette.

"Alright! Time has come and her foal cannot wait: let's not make haste and do this quickly.. In case something would wrong if we take our time.." Eclipsetess told the mares, they were determined mares and that Minette took a deep breath in before letting the clingy emotions of expecting go away and she nodded.. She was ready now..

And Eclipsetess nodded back as she looked at the mares, before she looked over at Namir and Moon. And that Eclipsetess focused back on Minette.. She was too precious and her (deceased) mates foal as well.. Eclipsetess also took a little more stress off before she was ready and Minette took the lead..

     Namir got concerned when Minette said she was uncomfortable. He glanced at his sister for a quick moment before he looked at Eclipsetess with a worried look. Moon sensed it and came over without a word even before Eclipsetess called over the mares in the herd. As much as Namir wanted to be there with his daughter despite not being her real father, he knew he wouldn't be allowed, so he stepped back.

     Nysa was just enjoying her time with Esmeray since she missed his presence. Though she looked over seeing the herd mares rush over to where Minette was. She looked at Esmeray for a moment with a worried look, "I-i should go and be with her like I promised..I'll be back as soon as I can." she said in a quieter tone as she nuzzled him softly before she quickly cantered over making her way to Minette.

     Althea respected what Solstice said about the right name coming at the right time, but she only gave a small nod in response before she looked over seeing the mares in the herd rush over to a couple of mares in particular. Solstice looked over before she tried getting up. Though Orion only stopped her, "Solstice you must rest. There's nothing you can do to help. You know they would just make you come back over here." he said urging her to stay off of her hooves.

     Solstice just looked at him, "She's our niece. I should be there for her." she said as she rose up to her hooves. Though once she did, the filly just went to nurse. Solstice looked at her smiling as she softly nuzzled the filly's side. Though she looked over at the huddled mares then Orion as she sighed, "Alright alright I'll stay. Only because of the little one." she said giving him a bit of a look. She could be as stubborn as her brother sometimes...well a lot of the time. Seemed to run in the family since Nysa was even stubborn at times.

     Though Nysa had made her way through the mares until she reached Minette. She looked at her aunt then Moon before she laid down next to Minette, "I'll be right here with you just like I said I would." she said in a soft tone letting Minette know she was there for her like she had promised. "Lean against me if you need to. I'm right here." she said again as she nuzzled Minette trying to distract her a bit from the pain and everything.
