NAKOTI && OCTAVIAN

The ebony mare trudged into the Foaling Quarry for the last time. The past few years of her life had been hard. She had gone through so much pain, so much suffering. Everything she held dear to her heart either disappeared or died. Her heart had been torn into half, and tossed out to rot. At one point, she felt so terrible she even attempted suicide, but her dear eldest son, her beloved firstborn, had found her before it was too late. Her three eldest children had banned together to save her life. And if it wasn't for them, Nakoti would not have been here today.

The aging mare felt awful for the ordeal she put her family through. She had not been around to see her youngest son grow up. Her mental illness had deprived him of that, the one thing almost all her children had. Of course, her youngest son with her first love had vanished with his father, so she could not have been around to care for him either. Just thinking about these things made her depressed again, but she forced herself to look at the bright side of her life. Things had finally turned for good again.

She was amazed that Triglav had taken her back. She couldn't blame him if he didn't. She had hurt him greatly, and their son. But he had stayed around, while her first love vanished all the time. She could trust Triglav. She could no longer trust Savros. She felt like she owed the Przewalski something, and maybe that was why she was here. Or maybe it was because she just longed for one last child. Or perhaps it was both. But, nevertheless, that was why she was here. She had left early, just in case it took her longer than normal to get to the Quarry. But here she was, right on time.

The black mare searched for the spot where she had given birth to her firstborn, Johnis. It just seemed fitting to bring her final child into the world where she had brought her first. The first contraction wracked her body as she stumbled upon the spot. She lurched down on the soft, growing grass, and the process began. About an hour later, all was done. Nakoti laid there, panting, drenched in sweat. She felt her new child stirring, so she staggered to her feet. She swayed a little, and then felt fine, if not exhausted. She turned around to see her new foal. It was another colt, with a dun colt. He was quite skinny, and looked very fragile. She frowned slightly before proceeding to clean her new son.

As the tawny colt stood and walked for the first time, Nakoti debated names. After he nursed, and settled down for some rest, she finally came across the perfect calling for her son. "You will be called Octavian."
