She considered that for a moment. "I suppose that makes sense. But doesn't it get dull occasionally?"

"Occasionally, yes. But with many more of my siblings returning, it will not be dull much longer."

"Well, that's good then." She fell into silence, uncertain what else to say to this strange pony. Really, Zulimar would have been content to enjoy the storm without further conversation, but that was really dependent on the other pony's choices.

"Do you have many siblings?"

"Siblings are not always ones that share the same parents. Many families would not be if that were the case." He smiled, "And did you like this school, as you call it?"

"I was fond of them, yes," she smiled slightly. "I've since lost touch with most of them, though. Some I lost."

"My sympathies, Zulimar. I hear the loss of a loved one is not easy, though I have no personal experience of it."

"I have the same hope, though with the integration that is occuring in my family, I doubt I will be free of such pain forever."

"Ah...but there is no pain in the first place if you do not hold someone close. Would that not be the simpler solution?"
