Jinju
Her calls aren’t the only ones, just as that she wasn’t really alone out there. Many, many others had gathered, all searching for their loved ones, all missing someone. But no-one seemed to pay any attention to the little black filly that obviously shouldn’t be out here alone. None, except for one. By the time Jinju notices the rhythm of galloping hooves, hooves that were rushing in her direction, her head jerks up, hopefully to lay her eyes upon Lexa’s spotted form.
It are not Lexa’s eyes that meet hers. Instead her teary red orbs take in a stranger, shorter than her mother, but still much taller than Jinju herself. As she stumbles upon her feet, reaching out towards the stranger, the gray mare had already closed the little distance that was left between them. It’s soothing and comforting, what the feeling of being cared for could pull from a child. Silently Jinju starts to cry again, basking herself in the embrace that she much needed.
”Momma..” she murmurs in between the sobs, slowly looking up to meet the gray mare’s gaze. ”My.. my mother. Lexa.. She took me home to the Jungle.” With those simple words she suggested how it had been. No, Lexa hadn’t birthed her in the Jungle, instead the Amazonian Queen had found her at the Den and had offered her a place among the warrior women. But at least Lexa had proven herself as a mother, unless the dam that had given life to her. ”Do.. do you know where momma is?”
