Sage's legs braced her weight, Dream? He slowly lowered his own body with hers, bringing her gently to the ground. He lay her down in the long greens, then rose quickly towards the lake. He galloped into the water, soaking himself once more, then came back to the mare's side. He lay down beside her, tucking long piallrs under a large mass, and pressed himself up against Dream. His own drenched pelt seeped into the fae's, he draped his neck overtop hers, letting his long mane drip onto her own.

Shattered Dreams lay still with the warmth against her , liquid seeping into her grey stained chassi. The damp warmth could be felt in her sleep , or whatever it was she was having. Crickets began to chirp in the warm night , stars just beginning to show themselfs. Her cage rose and fell softly with slow breaths. Laying now , how skinny she was could be seen.

[Danae]

Sage had rest his neck upon hers, eyes closed, breathing mimicking that of the mare. A numb breeze had dried the water from his pelt, the long grass surrounding them blowing to and fro, elegantly. The sun had long since gone down, bright stars coating the black sky as the pair slept beneath them.

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

Breaths became shallow and sharp , quick like the stab of a knife. Her bodice rose and fell quickly and shakily with the breaths , like they pained her , and they did.

[Danae]

The stags sleep was quickly aroused by the change in breaths of the fae. His eyes shot open, concer and worry masking his face. A cold breeze whisked the equines tassels back, chilling the couple. Sage rose sharply, and paced tight circles around the mare. Dream, his maw reached her shoulder. He halted before the wind, sheltering the mare from the bit of the breeze. lowered, head down, the stallion waited. Please..please..

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

Breaths still came , sharp and shallow but getting no worse. Her pelt twitched slightly at the touch on her shoulder. Her chassi became warmer as the wind was no longer hitting her.Slowly , very slowly , breaths became easier.

[Danae]

The stallion closed his eyes tight, thankfully. Her breathing has steadied. He hadn't known what had caused it, but he hoped it would keep away. Now, all he could do was wait. The wind bit his side sharply, numbing his skin, but he stood like a rock, not easing in to the pain.

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

Voids were slowly opened up to the world , seeing Sage standing above her. She looked at him for a moment. Hey Sage....She said in a soft voice.

[Danae]

The stallion heaved sigh of relief, eyes shooting open. Dream. He collapsed beside her, neck wrapping heartidly around her. A light shudder made it's way through his bodice, single tear running it's course down his face, into her neck. I was so worried.

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

She heard his words and felt the tear run down her boa. Lifting her dial up , refusing to heed her body's weakness , she nudged his nape softly , bumping his pelt with her maw.It's okay....I'm alright....She said , looking at him softly.

[Danae]

His deep eyes searched her own as he raised his skull shakily. Dream, what happened? He asked quickly, eyes pleading.

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

I passed out....She answered , looking back with clouded blue gaze that looked brown at first glace but looking straight into her voids they were deep , dark blue.

[Danae]

You worried me. He soon calmed, rising strongly. Stay here. You need to eat. He long pillars carried him quickly to the forest, he searched. He found. A large tree, pletly of red apples fallen underneath it. He reared up, placing front hooves upon the bark, and grasped an apple lightly with his fron teeth, landing, and soon had it at Dream's feet. Eat.

[.{.Zeecarian.}.]

She did as she was told , tomb stones biting into the red fruit. She chew it slowly , finishing the rest of it a few moments later.Shattered Dreams looked up with grateful souls apon her foreface. Thank you.

[Danae]

A relieved smile made its way onto the stag's maw. His pillars lowered him down to the earth. I care for you. A whisper. Come with me? Words were weary. Lead the Amien Herd by my side? It had been asked. He couldn't stop himself any longer.
