I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come

Only hours before a magnificent orange orb of homely warmth had descended beneath its sheets, and was thus destined to sleep soundly until the duty of Dawn called all of her attention and grace to her job. Surrounding her was a halo of golden purity, casting so far into the eastern sky that it was turned fervent pigments of blue and purple and pink. And in this partly shadowed environment Topaz had clearly seen the form of a heavily pregnant mare departing, looking somewhat confused and in pain; but she was not so stupid as to be overly concerned. Birth was a wonderous and cherishable thing to any who had experienced it, and although the ambassador had not her time would come. Instead of trailing the sable brood she stood reservedly against the darkening sky and waiting with the utmost patience that she was fabled to possess. You simply could not rush miracles into time slots. When the snow gently began its twirling descent a feeling of tranquility descended onto the strangely tinted arabian, her gaze following the odd flakes in their twisting dances. How obscene it seemed to be labelled "evil" within the borders of such a wordly and picturesque place as the Dimension. Granted, it was no haven, and there was much cruelty and malice in their home, but the miracles of life were so common, if only you looked. A unique snowflake settled on her shoulder, forcing a cool shiver to radiate throughout her body, and she looked at it with a glimmering smile on her face. In the future there would always be hope, and there would always be life, and there would always be love. No matter how deep it was buried.

Gradually the temptation to sleep overcame her resolution to await Reincarnation and child's return to the safety of Hawkmeadow, and she gently allowed her skull to sink unsupported to the vegetation she stood knee deep in. A curious smile was not curling at her lips, but it was radiating throughout her sculpted, and therefore haunted features. She slept soundly for a long time, slowly becoming colder and colder in the harshened winter darkness. But in truth she was constantly alert of her surroundings, and at every whisper the zephyr's created her lolling ears would flicker, determining direction, volume and source with masterful skill. She would wait until morning for what strode down that path, but afterward duty would call as it would the sun herself.

And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me
