good gone girl, she's got nothing left to lose; covet

[Darking]

good gone girl, she’s got nothing left to lose As Covet has already jokingly noted (though not out loud), Darking has had her fair share of children. Over the years she has given birth to, and raised a total of 21 children (including Rowyn). While that may seem like a lot to some mares, at over 120 years of age, she personally doesn’t think that number is too bad. She has done her best to raise the majority of them, though, as tends to happen, she has been a far better mother to some than she has been to others. But, in her own way, she has loved each and every one of them. All of them are special to her, even the ones that have hurt her most. Rowyn though … Rowyn had not been planned. Darking had thought herself done with children after giving birth to triplets and then twins, one set almost right after another. But then she had run into Covet that one day in the meadow, and one thing had led to another. She hasn’t regretted it of course. She’s never regretted any of her children. And Rowyn has been a wonderful little ray of sunshine (as stereotypical as that sounds) in her long life. But she wants to make she does it right with her. Which is part of the reason she has hunted Covet down. She watches as the pair of them stand there, staring into each other’s eyes - Covet’s orange ones matching Rowyn’s mismatched ones. Funny how she’d inherited a little bit of both of them in that way. He speaks about his past, and while Rowyn doesn’t move, Darking can feel the intense interest emanating from her. “She didn’t say you’d been king twice.” The girl’s head cocks to the side. “She did mention the rebellion though. She said you did bad things and she was stupid.” Darking grimaces. Well that was rather blunt. DARKING

My bad, Rowyn has one orange eye and one green eye! I should have clarified that.
