As the undead thing speaks, she knows what he references. She had made decisions in Jacks absence; promises she intended on honoring. The hours had blurred together, details becoming fuzzy on what just transpired. She does not realize it was all a slide of hand. A game they were all a pawn in...
As he vanishes into the shadows for which he came, her mind turns to those that remained. The sight of Jack standing before her, Escence finding her strength, Eviction trying, brings a smile to her face. They would be alright as long as they had each other.
Jack engages in a game of carefree frolicking with the twins. She laughs softly to herself as she grazes upon the green grasses of spring. Slowly she draws closer to the tree and releases a whicker for the children to follow. It had been a long two days with little sleep. Eviction isn't far behind her, as is the norm. The fiery filly though throws her usual tantrum in the near distance before also heading her mother's call. They settle, finally.
Jack nibbles at the grasses not far from them. She knows the questions will come and she readies her answers. For now though, she simply enjoys the peace and tranquility of the warming spring day.
Not all that glitters is gold
