It’s been a wonderful few weeks.
Baby Hope has been a literal spot of joy in her life. The little roan filly is such a happy child, so innocent, friendly and pure. Everyone she’s met has become taken with her instantly, disarmed by her sweet and open disposition. Even Taiga, so often prone to irritating and even bullying her siblings, has been nothing but gentle with the sweet girl.
They get along so well that Eira has decided to take a chance … and leave Hope in Taiga’s care for the day. It’s not something she would have ever dreamed of doing before, given Taiga’s disposition (not that she thinks Taiga would injure anyone, more like torment them), but given Taiga’s treatment of the little girl, she thinks it’s finally time to test giving Taiga some responsibility.
She’s not too far from them of course (she doesn’t trust Taiga that much, not yet anyhow), but she’s taking the opportunity to go for a bit of a stroll. She hasn’t had much time for walking freely since Hope’s birth, and it’s nice to have the chance to stretch her legs and breath the fresh clear air.
But she’s only minutes into her walk when she hears a youthful, but rather confident voice calling out across the plain. Her curiosity is peaked, and with nothing better to do that satisfy her own curiosity, she heads out in the direction of the voice.
It takes her a little while, but eventually she comes across the caller - a young, vibrantly coloured mare standing on the outskirts of the kingdom. She’s been beaten there by Magnus (who she does not know well, having only met him soon after Hope’s birth), so she gives the buckskin stallion a warm smile and nod, before turning back to the girl. “Hello, I’m Eira.”
