Gingerly, Anarchy moved out from beneath the shady cover of the willow tree that she had taken to reclining beneath. She found it to be somewhat harder than she'd originally thought to insinuate her way into the ranks of the Soquili in this land. She was awkward with others, not quite right. It was much easier for her to speak to those of her own kind, unicorns who shared a horn in common with her. But her meeting with Zaribe had told her that she should make the effort to befriend strangers, even those who were not of her race. They weren't as bad as Chaos had led her to believe, as her family had led her to imagine. With her family gone, all but for Chaos, it only made sense to broaden her horizons. She'd thought she'd done that when she'd manage to hold up a conversation with a Kalona, but later realized that she'd done so well because that exchange had taken place before Antichrist, a unicorn like herself. Blinking and shaking her head to clear her mind, she glanced up, looking in the direction of the sound that had caused her to get up in the first place. "Hello? Is anyone there?"

When the mare became visible, Anarchy was even more relieved. A unicorn. Then, wincing internally a little, she chided herself for being so xenophobic. She needed to get over that. "It's alright. I just wasn't expecting to see anyone. It's not unwelcome." Nor unpleasant, really. She did like to have company, it was just that she felt quite strange around... well, strangers. "My name is Anarchy." Yes, good. A first step, a step in the right direction. Showing initiative was positive, wasn't it? Silently anxious, she did her best to be friendly, and welcoming, for she truly did welcome the sight of a new Soquili. Besides, the clearing did not really belong to her. She just stayed there, much like how the trees 'stayed' there. The unicorn had only begun to realize that she was becoming something of a hermit when one of her prior visitors pointed it out to her. Hopefully, Hienna wouldn't notice, or it wouldn't come up.

Ooops. That wasn't what she'd meant, quite. "Well, actually, here. Mostly, I traveled to get here, to come see my brother. Although, I almost went to the sea. That probably would have been nice, as well." It was then that she realized that there was something important in what Hienna had said before that. "You're going to be a mother?" That thought was... instantly precious, like a shiny gem. Wasn't that something that her brother had encountered, but in the opposite role? She now had three nephews, two of which were regular Soquili, and one of which was a unicorn. And they were all beautiful, just like their parents. She'd been amazed to see the mingling of features between them, and happy to have just a bit more family. "That's great. I mean, that's wonderful." It was wonderful for Hienna, and probably Hienna's mate, if she had one. And Anarchy couldn't quite help but think that it was wonderful in general. Little foals were so much fun to be around. Their enjoyment of the world was infectious.

"That's definitely something I wouldn't know about. I haven't been a mother before, either. Er. Well, really at all. I'm not one now, I mean." Augh! There, she'd done it again, really putting her hoof in it. Silent for a moment, the unicorn mare tried to consider what to say next to avoid soundly like a complete and utter fool. "Oh, really? That's very nice of you, you know. I've wanted to visit the ocean for a long time." That would be really cool. Already, she felt herself getting excited by the prospect. Zaribe had intended to go with her, but they'd never really made it all the way there. It would have been nice if... well, that wasn't important now. What was important was that Hienna had offered to show her the way.
