When he starts speaking, she listens closely. A relieved sigh escapes past the barrier of her lips. Levi is not the father, she surely would’ve known of this snow blanket stallion if he considers the bay sabino fire wielder as his master, right? ”You were here? Watching over them? Did.. did she-“ a brief pause, her eyes quickly glancing over Karaugh’s body. ”… die in childbirth?”
With her eyes on the fallen body again, she notices more and more on the buckskin mare’s body. It is mangled, and in a few days it would be unrecognizable. Sure, the scent of blood and dead must lure in scavenger hunters. But even now, it’s no pretty sight.
Ouija stepping forward pulls her from her stare. A quick shake of her head and her dark eyes find his red ones again. For a moment she wonders if he is another descendant of Offspring’s line. But no, Offspring’s line isn’t important now. Karaugh’s is. ”With family?” she questions. Did Kolera and Kryptic have more siblings, aside from young Kaurma? ”She has family in Tephra.” Amorette wouldn’t hesitate to take Kryptic’s younger sister under her figurative wing too.
His approach has her lift her head, but even so, she stands much shorter than him and thus has to glance up to meet his gaze. For someone who always is comfortable around others, she doesn’t like Ouija’s proximity. There is something eerie about his gaze, even though she is familiar with seeing red eyes. ”My name is Amorette” she answers him after a short pause. Then, deciding that she is reading too much into it. ”Do you live in Taiga? Were you here when..” She doesn’t finish, and instead glances at what used to be Karaugh, when that happened?
Amorette
Quand on n'a que l'amour.
