Thamin Richmon lay beneath a large leafless tree near the edge of a clearing. He was silent, contemplative - He glowing eyes gazing out accross the field of browning grass. Death. Winter was coming, and though it was not his first in this world it was the first he had truly noticed. A cool wind swept accross the field, ruffeling the feathers of his wings and his cape. To say the least the events of nature and the world had shocked him. He had dealt with the dead his entire exsistance and yet he had never seen the cold grasp of the undertaker at work. But there was a reason for everything - only what could it be? He didnt know...

Lolli This time of the year had always been a source of alarm and worry for Akahi, it was even moreso this time around. Last year it had been the start of her pregnancy with foals. With children to call her very own... This year it brough grief and a lack of understanding on her part that she felt more keenly than she cared to. Her stomach growled, but she ignored the dying grasses to search out the last of the ripe apples. It'd been the spot of red that had drawn her closer to this part of the lands she now inhabited, but as she got there she could tell it was him. Richmon, the Judge. Did she stay and move forward? Did she turn and flee before he could sense her?
Her stomach answered for her, and closer she went.

Thamin A fleck of blue slowly, heaitantly, moved closer in Richmon's view - an insubstantual and unfocused blure that grew into a blotch that blotted out the sceanery. After some time he could no longer ignore the blob that obscured his view and was forced to refocuse on the growing object. He blinked slowly - of all the beings in this mortal world to come accross him in this state it had to be the one he called Wrath. Ironic - on such a sullen day the most difficult of subjects would arrive. Everything hd a reason; right? He gave a soft sigh, his white lips barely moving. He lowered his head for a moment, attempting to remember the customs of the living she had chastized him about so long ago. Slowly he brought his gaze once more up to the mare and nodded. "Hello," he greeted, a custom he believed was not needed but apparently was widely accepted. He knew not what else to say to the mare - she seemed busy, and through their dificulties in the past he assumed it would be best not to begin immediatly delving into the enigma that she was.

Lolli At least he was polite enough to greet her first this time. She didn't think it sourly like she normally did, just a fact as she looked about for food. Finding none, and giving up, she settled herself not far from him and nodded. "Hello." Akahi wasn't sure she wanted to start a conversation with the winged stallion, or if she'd really know how to in any case. She could always feel his glowing eyes peering into her. Not at her, always in her; as if he could see into her head. Or was trying to. It gave her the shivers, but not always in a bad way. More like in a guilty way. She hated that feeling.

Thamin He watched Wrath - She was not her usual self - or what he had come to know as her usual self. Like the time before when she had been gazing longingly at the odd family she did not display any signs of anger. It was as if the emotion was not even there anymore. He couldnt help but be curious about the sudden change in demeanor. "Does something trouble you?" He asked softly, emotionlessly. A connection dawned on him, an Epiphany of sorts, about his suroundings. As nature had become cold and still, lifless in a way, not posessing the spark it once had, so had she. By now she would have made a snide remark - yet none came. a tear of blood dripped down his cheek as he gazed at her, an event that had been happening since he had come to this world. "It seemes as though the cold brings with it many things..." Softly he spoke, not to Wrath, but as he was looking at her it may have been taken as such - he realized this only after the words flowed from his tongue.

Lolli She watched. Watched as he bled from the eyes and it confused her. It almost made her angry, but as she felt the cold wind on her hide and watched what remained of the birds in these parts fly overhead she shook her head. Akahi wasn't sure if she was shaking her head because she disagreed, or just to do it. She still didn't quite know what she was going to say or do when she opened her mouth to speak. "Doesn't something always trouble me?" Swallowing down the feeling of bile and sadness that came with that thought, she shrugged softly and spoke just as quietly. "Winter brought me children last year. I am not sure I want to know what it will bring me, or take from me, this year." Maybe that was the problem. Perhaps she just shouldn't have ever woken this morning.

Thamin Richmon's gaze dropped to the ground as Wrath spoke. An enigma indeed was she. He had been in this world for a year, and though he had been her for a year he had apparently learned nothing. He was greatly confused, though it didnt show on his face. He staired blankly at the ground. He begain to speak, attempting to figgure out his thoughts. "Everything Happens for a reason..." Richmon offered - the one thing he knew to be true. It was the one thing his views could not be changed on - but it was dificult to no longer know the reason - to no longer be able to see the before and after in an instant. "Though we may not know what it is, it is always for the better... Always... " The last word he whispered, remembering what it felt like to be cast out of purgatory. Had there too been a reason for his banishment? He cast the thought aside - now was not the time. "It takes time though; one simply has to wait." He could sence her sadness - An emotion he had come to feel from many in this world, yet he didnt know what it was. He lifted his gaze to the mare once more. Though he did not trust her, did not find her wise or very knowledgeable of the world or heavens, she was the one being he spoke with the most. Perhaps, for once, he could put aside his duties to indulge his curioity and asuage his confusion. "Forgive me for delving into your life - but I do not understand what you seem to be. I've been told the word is sad, and it is a feeling - but..." He paused, finding that in his odd state of contemplation he was even more curious about, of all things, the very emotions that formed into sins. "What is it?" He continued.
