Upon the hill stood the shimmering ice mare, whom watched the land below. Her hair shining white strands blending and flowing outward like rapid water. Teal orbs surveyed the scene before her, so lush and green past all the snow that still lie in places making the ground soft yet still decent in footing. By her long slender legs stood a smaller creature that blended with the snow. Its eyes peering as intently as her own. Craning it's little neck the wolf looked up to the mare waiting for a response of what they should do.

The ice mare smiled softly at the young pup, eyes showing reassurance that none would come to harm. "Amadahy there is a huge world in front of you. Stay close to me and no harm will come to pass." she motioned with her muzzle. "Come let us enter that world and find comfort in others to talk with and trust." Flicking her silken ears, he muscles twitched, as she bounded off in a canter, her legs stretching outward to give her speed and grace. Still though she kept pace for the pup to comprehend and follow with.
The wolf pup moved with her, its coat soft yet bristling as it too stretched its legs to keep up with the frost colored mare. Little pants escaped its throat, tongue lolling downward as it kept speed and accuracy as her companion mare.

Again he smiled lightly as he could see the pink hue dancing across her milky white cheeks. His tail flicked and he took a step forward lightly pressing his nose against her warm flank. "No worries darlin, I often say what's on my mind. " He chuckled and took a step back, raising his head and bowing it at the same time to look the small mare in the eyes. "The mood does make you look radiant though..." He pranced his front feet lightly as he heard the sound of distant hooves running towards him.
"I my dear, am new to this place. Although I hail from the mountains like yourself. I have never really wandered out this far before.. but I think with the day I have been having.. I shall be having to come down here more often."
He glanced back over his shoulder at the blue streak galloping towards him and smiled. His tail gave a flick and spun around to greet the new arrival. "Greetings Celendra, You are a sight for sore eyes..."

She blushed again, her cheeks a faint rosy color, though her eyes shined happily, looking up at him, for once wishing she wasn't so small. Her ears twitched as she heard someone coming, a sound like soft thunder, of which she knew was another. And almost on cue a comet of blue fire streaked across the field towards them.
As the stallion turned to greet Celendria, she herself gave a happy whinny, raising up on her hind legs before landing lightly, her red hooves dancing delicately across the snow covered ground, prancing in a little circle as her herd-mate came near.

Celendria galloped , her legs shining with iridescence as she came in for a pause of her run. Flicking her tail, legs balanced and straightened she bowed her delicate head to Catori and Sheridan. "Greeting you two. Hmm Sheridan such a flirt as always I see." she remarked smirking with a nod.
Shaking herself she relived the tension that harbored in her withers and lower hocks. Lowering her head she motioned for her companion to come outward and meet the other two Soquili.
The small wolf blinked her charming blue eyes up at the larger mare whose eyes seemed reassuring at best. She gulped heavily, padding out from between the the giant mares strong stable legs. "hello." she squeaked with another yip that gurgled from her throat.

Sheridan gave a Knowing smile and nodded his head. "As always My dear Celendria, as always." He laughed and bent his head down low to examine the shy and timid female wolf. His ears flicked back and forth before he finally smiled. "Hello there little one."
He raised his large head, and glance back at Catori with a laugh, rather thinking the little mare to be quite pretty when she was hopping about like a filly. "you two know each other then?" He glanced back and forth between the two and stepped towards the middle of the group, as to be able to see everyone while speaking. His long bony tail danced against the ground as he gracefully moved aside.

Catori nodded, smiling at her, her eyes shining bright ' Celendria and i live in the same little valley in the mountains " she said, her tail swishing around in a very whip like fashion " Along with the flutter, we kinda of like a mini-herd " she said, turning her glowing scarlet orbs towards the icy mare. She tilted her head to the side, and being much smaller than either of them lowered her head slowly, not wanting to scare the dear little pup.
" Hello there, My name Catori, i hope ill be seeing alot more of you if you are going to be following out lovely blue around ' she said with a sweet smile. " What might be your name? " she asked, her little white ears flicking.
Sitting, snuggeled up in the twisted roots of an ancient tree, sat a delicate little basket, Black as the night around it. Two delicate grey feathers ruffled from tis basket, the ebony weavings protecting the fragile life inside. Woven into the rim of the lid, was a metallic grey stone... strangely remind someone of a twisted skull.

This information seemed to perplex Sheridan, he tilted her head and looked over at Catori. "Is that so?" He laughed and tilted his head backwards, shaking it in his mirth. Obsidian tresses following his movements like streamers. "Then I find it quite strange that we haven't met before now."
He smiled at Celendria and gave a small shrug of his large shoulders. "Then again, I haven't been in the mountains of the region very long.. this whole place is new to me. " His graze dropped to the little wolf and he chuckled again. "I suppose I'll be seeing a lot of you as well, little one.."
With a musing expression he turned back towards Catori. "Or perhaps I should call you, little one? However right now Radiant one suites you better." he winked and bright his gaze to celendria. "and the ice Goddess before us..."

The little pup meekly stood there shivering it seemed, perhaps afraid something would happen. "Amadahy. Celendrias found me all alone." she sqeaked with another shiver, her mouth trying to pronounce her words as they came to her. A tiny feather seemed to accent the little female's eyes as she looked upward at all of them. "I'll... be staying with Celendria miss Catori."
Celendria watched the pup with adoring eyes. It wasn't a foal sadly but it was her companion familiar now. That in a scene was like watching over your own child. She was proud of Amadahy for taking an initiative of being polite to her friends. As the wind spoke in a soft language the mare swiveled her keen ears. She seemed entranced by something buried under the spring grass that grew outward like a tree. Making a nicker that escaped from her throat, she decided to inspect what it was. And upon her inspection she realized it was a basket.

Catori flicked her eyes up towards sheridan, the orbs glowing like embers settled in the snow. Though her face didnt suddenly glow bright as it had before, it could easily be seen that her cheeks stained a rosy color, before she turned her attention back to thepup in front of her.
In hopes of making herself seem less scary and large, she settled in the snow in front of the tiny pup, her slender legs folded under her. " Well then, i shall definitely be seeing you " she said with a sweet smile, her eyes shine kindly as she regarded the little pup curiously. " You must be very brave, to have been out all alone until Celendria found you " she said, a pang of admiration in her voice that would hopefully give the pup some more self-confidence.
The feathers on the basket ruffled as a faint breeze blew past, something could be heard shifting inside, a faint rustle, but aside from that, the basket sat still, dark and alone within its little nest of wood and grass.

If the ice mare could've celebrated she would had. Though it was not her own she longed to be with a basket. Her nickers were soft and maternal, as she leaned her head down to listen intently of the creature dwelling within. Everything else in the world seemed to melt further into non-existence around her. An infinite moment of quiet bliss as she nuzzled the basket lovingly.
The pup listened to Catori as a smile seemed to cover her meek little profile. "It's a scary place with no pack. No pack to run nor play with. Only little Amadahy till Celendria found her." she said with a timid nod. Turning her head she gazed upon the blue mare whom seemed entranced by something immensely. Whimpering she sat there wondering what the ice mare was doing.

Sheridan blinked his deep brown eyes and tilted his head as the icy mare seemed to be entranced by something in the soft grass. He glanced back at Catori who was engaged in conversation with the pup. He smiled and quietly walked away to join Celendria unnoticed.
He bowed his head by the trunk of the tree and lightly sniffed at the basket below. "A rather gloomy looking basket.." He remarked quietly and gently nudged it with his nose. He gave a gentle reassuring nicker to the foal within, showing his kind paternal side that could be glimpsed upon occasion behind his flirtaous mask.
"what do you think, Goddess of Ice? Filly or colt?" He asked her as he quietly raised he's head to study the small basket from his full height.

Catori gave a gentle smile and nodded " I can imagine, it must have been scary. And you know... back in our valley there is a little blue fox... mind you he's not a wolf but hes still around your size right now. I'm sure he would be happy to keep you company " she said, smiling. She turned her head towards the other two examining something ' it's seems Celendria seems to have found something... curious? " she asked, giving a sidelong glance at the pup, scarlet orbs watching her curiously.
A small snort escaped from the lining between the basket and the lid, before the tiny baby inside curled back off and rifted to sleep, in its foggy baby state mildly curious about who was looming around it's nice, dark, warm basket.

The ice mare nickered and perked her ears to the grunt of the little foal within. She beamed quite happily as she caught the hint of her having company. "I'm not sure yet. Could be a colt I wonder." she said with a soft sigh as her great lungs heaved her happiness at that very moment. She was very delicate as her breath released blowing into the weaves where the child lay. "I will watch over this little one when it heads toward the outside world. Someday I will have my own, but for now I will be a friend to this little one." she blew once more toward the child with a deep smile.
The wolf kept watch up at Catori nodding as her ears picked up on several things she'd remember one time or another. "What's in there?" she queried with the most interested bit of curiosity. Glancing once at the milky white mare then padding over slowly to see what the basket held inside.

Shariea-
Sheridan glanced back at Catori and flashed one of his handsome smiles and nodded his head to the side, stepping over so that she and the little wolf may examine the basket without crowding. His tail flicked gently back and forth as he bent down to sniff at the dark basket again.
Listening attentively to celendria he nodded, a thoughtful express crossing his face. "I think you may be right...nevertheless there is a strength is this one." he smirked and quirked an eyebrow at the icy mare. "You so desire to have your own, But I think for awhile, even though a friend you may be.. You may have your hooves full with this one."

Celendria smiled thoughtfully at his words of caution. "Yes I know. I've been on the move all my life, as I simply appeared with the coming winter this year. Like a bird who just one day decides its not heading to migration like the others. Oh how the wind mourns my decision to stay, but I must know of the other seasons." she said with another sigh as she blew outward to the weaves in the basket. "All young ones need someone to nurture them. I will take that task."
The young wolf padded over, sitting on her haunches as she looked curiously into the dark weaves of the somber basket. "There's a baby in there? How did it get in there?" she asked looking up at the others.

Sheridan smiled thoughtfully and tilted her head. "well then.. it will be good to hear the sound of a child in our meadow." he nodded and glanced behind him, to the coll night. "alas My lady, I fear I must depart for now. My legs are aching to run, as i'm sure this little foals will be soon enough. Take care now, Ice goddess." He smiled and nudged her gently against her front shoulder. "and you take care as well little one." he added as he glanced down at the timid wolf.
With that he reared back on his hind legs for but a moment before springing forward and racing into the inky night, his obsidian tail trailing behind him.
