Arwen had been afraid she'd ask. But she had opened the door to the question. She shrugged her shoulders, "They died...they fled...or maybe they've fallen? Who can say? But one day they were gone. And I...and a few others were lost then saved. It had been so long by then since we had seen others that it's still hard to get use to." Her voice was cool but held the compassion she could never fully eradicate from her voice, "And your people? I do not see much of them anymore..."

"What, the dragons?" she rolled her eyes. "Nah, we're all over the place. You just have to keep an eye out for them. 'Course if you come across the wrong one, he might eat you. Hard for us to have kids, so there's not a lot."

Arwen trembled a little. This dragon was just loving to torture her.
"I'm glad that you're kind are doing well." She tilted her head to look at Kira Kei, she was beautiful despite the ferocity she displayed. "Do you have any kids?" Her voice was soft, thinking about all the children she had lost track of. They had been a part of those that had disappeared.

She blinks, startled. That... she had not been expecting. "Not as of yet. Kids don't really mesh with my life style. You?"
Why did she ask that? She didn't want to get to know this pony. Or rather, she didn't care if she did. But... well, it just seemed like the natural thing to do. Shoot, if this kept up, she'd loose her intimidating air.

Arwen smiled. It seemed that Kira had been taken back with her question. "Yes, several..." Here eyes looked out of the mouth of the cave into the onslaught of rain and stayed focused there. "I lost them all long ago, they...disappeared." Her voice broke for a moment as she brought her eyes back around to Kira Kei.

"That's... harsh," she murmurs. She didn't have children of her own, and doubted she'd be a good mother, but she did know that she would have been heart broken if she lost something she cared about.

Arwen wiped at her eyes. "Some days it's worse than others. Especially birthdays. Today is one of those days." Arwen tried to smile, "That's why I get lost so often, I get too lost in thought. But I do stumble upon the most interesting people."

"Keep it up and one day you'll meet someone more interested in killing you than chatting with you."

Arwen laughed, "True. I'll have to pay attention more from now on." Arwen looked about the cave in interest. "Do you live here alone?"

"Sometimes I live with my partner. She's out at the moment, though."

Arwen nodded her head vaguely. "I'm sorry I must be boring you." She stood up suddenly to watch the rain still falling. Things were becoming a bit awkward. "It doesn't seem to be slowing does it?"

"Storms 'round these parts can go on for days," Kira Kei commented, not quite acknowledging whether she was bored or not.

Arwen looked at Kira Kei for a long moment. "You're mate, does she travel often?" She was stalling a bit, interested but nonetheless stalling because she did not want to enter into the rain again.

"Whoa! Back up there, Miss Exalted. Who said anything about a mate?" Kira Kei quickly back peddled through their conversation, trying to remember if she'd said any such thing.

Arwen looked taken aback. Her face flushed, "I thought you said you're partner..."She let the sentence trail off. "Sorry, it was wrong of me to assume."
