Yi stretched her wings and moved silently along the herd lands. Having hidden herself away...how long had it been? Trying to work with Tahmores. She sighed. Irada was grown...what more had she missed in her absence? She needed to visit her mother. Mabye even see her brother. On second through, scratch that. She needed to see her mother though. No matter what her pride said...she was lost. And the only person she could ask without risking her position as future queen would be her mother, she reasoned. I mean unless her mother was stupid she wasn't about to tell the whole herd that her daughter was clueless as to what had happened as of late. For now though, she could take a walk. If she heard any interesting conversation she could inquire and learn some of the missing information. If she ran into her brother...or father...well perhaps she would simply ignore them. She shook her head and looked towards the Ichsa mare who had been her companion and slave since she had picked her up from the odd slave trader some time ago. "I have a feeling, Irada, that things will be interesting..." She said softly, not explaining what she ment more then that.The Ichsa mare nodded and bowed her head. "Yes, mistress." She said lightly, following a few steps behind the Jala heiress. "Vary interesting." She worried about her mistress. Having spent so much time with that other jala, the non herd boy, she feared her mistress had ruined her reputation. Or lost it entirely. She sighed softly, "Mistress, may I speak?" She inquired. As a nod she contined. "Mistress what will you do if...your brother has taken the throne." It was known, least to her, that her brother would have killed to have Yi disapper. Well she had...so now what? Irada looked to her mistress when she heard no reply. She was startled to see Yi had stopped and was stareing at her with somthing akin to hate. Her mistress had never treated her badly, for which she was greatful, so this was a new thing for her. "Mistress...?""Do not speak of such things Irada or i will find that cursed Slave trader and send you back, do you hear?" She said lowly. As Irada nodded, obviously terrified, she shook her head. "Irada, You have served me well, do not make me regret keeping you around." Glancing around to insure no one was around she stepped back a bit and lightly patted Irada on the back with one of her wings. "Keep such fears to yourself, Irada, and i will continue to ask your service." She did not belive in harsh disipline for her slave for she knew her disapointment and anger was punishment enough for the soft spoken Ichsa mare. She smiled lightly at her. "Well lets continue." The two began their walk once more.

Hera was on her morning walk, her slave safely tucked away in her little cave, or what she called a cave. It wasn’t very big and had only one main room, but that was good enough for the lone mare right now. She didn’t want to draw anymore attention to herself than what had been drawn to her ever since her little rendezvous with the prince. Tossing her head a bit, she began to skitter around the area, not really caring of who might be around until she nearly bumped into a grown Ichsa.
Frowning, she spun around to scold the slave when she noticed that the Heir was with the slave. Bowing her head down low, she slide her right foreleg out so that her muzzle nearly touched the ground. “Mistress Yi, what a pleasure to see you this fair morning.” She slowly rose and faced the other mare, making sure not to look her directly in the eye. “May I be of some service to you, ma’am?” she asked her curiously.

Irada blinked and jumped, skittering back behind Yi as this mare spun around. She said nothing, knowing her mistress would take care of everything.
Yi took a moment to look over this mare and calm her quick tounge. Best not stir up trouble right outta the pot. "Good morning." she said coolly. "Please, Heiress, or Princess Yi will do nicely. I prefer to only hear such a title when my faithful slave address me. Tho, I do hope you will appologize. As you did run into my property, by accicent i assume, you in turn ran into me, and i hope you will be," She paused a fraction, thinking of the right working. "Kind enough to apologize." She worded everything perfectly. In fact it ticked her off to no end when somone treated somthing of hers as nothing but dirt. She took it as an insult to her. After all you dont tell a king his crown is a little dirty, or a Queen her dress is smudged. To Yi, a insult, or ignorence of Irada was an insult to her. But smart as she was, she would not say it as such. Let this mare think that she is being rude for not apologizing for bumping into the Heiress and acting so rashly. Ah a little manipulation.
The Heiress smiled lightly however, after a moment. "I must decline your offer i am affired, i am in need of no help, unless you have some interesting story to tell to me. I must admit i have not been able to talk to my mother as of late and would love to hear any news recently released into the herd." Yes, say she had just missed her mother the last few days. yes...that works. And this mare had no large group of friends. She seemed safe enough to talk to a bit more openly.

Ashamed by her little stumble, she bowed her head as low as she had been taught to do so to the slave. "My apologies. I had no diea that anyone would be traveling out here, nonetheless Heir Yi and her slave," she said in an innocent voice. She didn't want to get on the wrong hoof with this royal Jala, especially since was the first time meeting with Ka's sister. She took a few timid steps away from both slave and Yi to give them enough room to move around her if they were in a big hurry which, from the look of it, was the case with Yi.
Tucking her wings up higher on her back, she canted her head up slightly as she heard Yi ask her if she had heard anything about her mother. She fluttered the tips of her wings as she gazed up at the sky, trying to think of the latest gossip from the other mares. Sadly, she hadn't heard anything. "I am dreadfully sorry, ma'am, but I have heard nothing of the whereabouts of the Queen. Though there has been a small rumor that she had disappeared something a while ago, but that rumor had been squashed the day she got back. She hadn't told anyone if she had gone anywhere, but I am sure that something happened." She shook her head slightly, not really knowing if that rumor was true.

Yi muttered somthing a bit darkly and she glanced at Irada as she gasped softly.
"Mistress, your temper." she whispered for Yi's ears only.
"Irada, You will hold your tonge in front of others, you know this." she said, tho it held no real threat. She knew Irada would shut up. She turned her attention back at the mare. "I see. Perhaps you know where my dear brother is?" she asked, sarcasium dripping from the word dear. "Still alive? Or offed in some stupid battle?" she mused, more to herself then anything. "Or perhaps my father, as well?" she added. She didnt' think this mare would know anything about her....family...But she was a bit board, honestly. And perhaps she could speak with this mare for now...a conversation. That sounded good. Get herself back in the herd members minds. Perfect.

Hera canted her head and ignored the little conversation between the Heiress and her slave. She was happy that she had trained her own slave to not speak out in public, though she couldn’t help but feel a little hint of pity towards Yi. Though if she were a slave she would have spoken out, too, despite her master’s wishes, but that was just her personality.
Hearing a question about the Prince, she shrugged her wings slightly. “I haven’t seen dear Ka in about a month or so, but from what I can tell he is happily alive and well. Though currently I don’t know his whereabouts, but I am sure he is still alive and with his little army.” She blinked her eyes a few times as Yi asked if she knew where her father was. “To be blunt I haven’t had the luck of meeting either of your parents in person. Maybe he might be around here somewhere with the army?”

"Perhaps. Fool headed stallions. All for a fight. Ready to kill themselves or each other at a moment. Honestly." She sighed softly, shaking her head. She titled her head. ""Dear" Ka? are you close to my brother?" she asked. "I have not heard somone refer to him as such. For commoner to call royalty as such you must either be close to him or not used to speaking to those above your station."
"And luck? Perhaps with my mother you may concider it as such, for i will admit she of course has to be so busy. However my father...as i said, fool headed stallions. I would not worry with meeting him. Perhaps if you have somthing to bring up with her, and i can get ahold of her, i might arrange a meeting with her for you."

[ooc: sorry about the major delay. RL has been horrible for me this year, especially for the past month and a half. X.X]
"That's stallions for you, though there are some that aren't always like that," she said, hinting at the outsider stallion Yi had taken in under her wing. She arched her neck delicately, not knowing if the Heir had noticed the hint or not. Though Hera didn't bother with that anymore. She narrowed her eyes ever so slightly when she asked if she was close to her brother. "Well, I have had a couple of moments of time with him but nothing more than that. I do consider him a friend, but not one close." She was, of course, lying through her teeth but she didn't want to tell the Heir what she truly thought of her brother.
"Perhaps in the near future, but not at the moment. I do have some things I need to work out before a meeting with the Queen is required."

"...yes. That is true. Though not concerning stallions of this herd. I have met an outsider or two who was...well weaker then any mare i have met." She shook her head, thinking of how Tahmores had been when they met.
However a small smile graced her lips. "I do hope your not lieing to me. You see i do not take kindly to liars and, though, as of now i may not be in power, it will not be long now, and if you value your life in the herd, you WILL speak truthfully at all times." The mares actions and words did not fit. "Once more i ask, what is your relation with my elder brother?"

Hera mentally slapped herself as she realized what she had said. It was obvious that the Heiress would know what her own brother was doing being her back. 'But is it obvious that I have fallen for the Prince?' she thought to herself. Flicking an ear, she shifted her body slightly before standing up straight again.
She hesitated slightly as she stumbled for words. What should she say to Yi? That she was madly in love with Ka? That seemed like the truth to her but maybe not for the Heiress. She decided to go for it anyways. "I thought I could keep this under wraps for a while but..." She let her voice fade away as she gazed around the area briefly before continuing on. "We, meaning me and your dearest brother, are seeing each other. It happened on accident, really, though I can tell that it was love at first sight. We have so much in common." There, she had told the Heiress her secret. But would Yi accept it as the truth? Perhaps she would but perhaps not. Hera waited the few tense moments for Yi to respond.
