Daylight swept across the land and with great ferocity it surged through the valley and brushed away the darkness of night. Small drops of dew, the tears of nature, sparkled like the rarest gems tucked away inside a chest of treasure. Such a beautiful sight as the sun rose over the grassy hills to take it’s rightful place in the sky. The clouds were bathed in seas of yellow, red, purple, and finally blue as the great ball of light made its journey upwards.
Ambala stood silently in a thicket of high grass as her warm eyes that matched the sun swam through the beauty of morning. The tall hairs rising up out of the ground, bathed in various shades of green, swayed against a warm breeze that blew past the patch. Like a mother’s kiss, it warmed Ambala’s cheeks and graced her features ever so gently. The air twirled and danced by before vanishing into nothingness.
A small smile sat on Ambala’s lips as she just enjoyed the feeling that the new day brought to her spirit. At last she was enjoying waking up. No longer did she awaken with aches or pains from the cold snow. At last the wretched bandit with his chilly breath was gone who had once chewed her flesh raw. The creature with ice for claws and fangs had melted thanks to spring’s coming. It was only a matter of time before the buds opened to give birth to the beautiful leaves, and the flowers to open, and the world to live again.

Spring didn't just bring warmth and romance with it, it also brought other more obscure and unexpected visitors. The stallion had estimated that this had been one of his longest trips away from the Kawani and as he breached it's border and waded through the dew lined glades he couldn't help but smile pleasantly at the familiar sights and scents. Nine months, it had been around nine months since he had last set his eyes upon the glorious place that he had been raised and it could be said that he was neither surprised or troubled that little had changed since his last visit. As usual, Mother Nature had graced the land with such beauty that even the blind couldn't ignore.
It was good to be home.
His smile deepened as he proceeded forwards, thrusting his muscled limbs through the lower regions of the grass. Suffice to say the individual blades were as co-operative as they had been years ago and that would be 'not very'. The stallion suspected that there would never be a day in his life when he didn't have to punch the roots to one side so that he could walk through but that was part of their charm after all. It made a change from the deserts and over grazed landscapes he had seen in recent months. However, he did cast this thought to one side and took the opportunity to absorb the scents that had evaded him for so long, his expression awash with an inner peace that the younger generations of today would be unlikely to experience given their nature.
Ahhhh... He'd missed this!
Lowering his head again, he whickered pleasantly to no one in particular and continued to distance himself from the borders. Moving further into his home territory with a renewed sense of purpose. He had quite a number of issues to attend to now that he was home; one might say he would have to make up for many months of neglect towards his family. Admittedly it wasn't neglect as they were aware of his activities but nine months was a lot of gossip to catch up on! This in mind he quickened his pace and hummed softly through partially parted lips as he went...unbeknownst to him that there was someone quite so close to his immediate vicinity.
