She’s not really sure where she is.
It’s hot, and humid, and it smells funny. She already misses the sweet-smelling grasses of home, and she wrinkles her little nose in distaste.
She also doesn’t really know who she’s looking for, either. She woke up here this morning by herself, and she waited to see if mother would come back. This morning, she’d been sure she would. Sure that she had dreamed the bit about a sister, and a new home. But now the sun is high overhead and she’s starting to think maybe it wasn’t a dream.
And she’s hungry.
The filly glances down at the grass and it’s lush here, but it doesn’t look appetizing. She could subsist on it, is starting to think she might have to, but it’s just another reason to miss mother. With a sigh, the girl unfolds her spindly limbs and climbs to her feet, glancing around.
It had been winter everywhere else, but here the air is warm and salty. There’s – a mountain? Mountains don’t smoke, in her experience, but hey, there’s a first time for everything.
Curious now, she sets off across the ground with no real destination in mind, simply following the winding water.
