Epona was trotting back and forth in the southern glen, not very happily. She felt bloated, her hooves ached, she could harldy wait for the foal to be born. She was sick of waiting, and there was nothing she could do about it. Damn! She glanced at the trail she'd worn down, a ring of dirt where grass used to grow. She longed to be back at the garrison, back with her C.O. She missed the militia! Paperwork, bah, paperwork was boring! She needed action, adventure...She yawned. She needed a nap. Sighing she shook her head determinedly. This was not the filly who trained into the wee hours of the morning, this was some dream-filly leading a parralell life it must be..! No..it was Epona. any way you looked at it, she was dealing with natural consequenses of being around a stud like aiax. She did love him, but he'd been babying her lately too. It was making her nuts! She trotted to the lean-to, determined to get her bow. Maybe hunting would cheer her up. Those creepy little squirrly things with bug-eyes and gills had been irritating her with thier insessant cirping at night, she'd skewer a few with some well placed arrows. They'd been keeping her up, and she'd never get used to the occasional hot-pink or radio-active green things jumping up and knocking itself silly on whatever it happened to hit. Not that it did too much damage, the things were half-silly already. What had aiax called them....Filigerties? Yeah well, she was gonna make 'em dead...She trotted out and into the surrounding woods.
