[bg=476a6a][atrb=border,0,table][atrb=width,540,table] [bg=604770] Kokai panted softly as she made her way to these birthing grounds, her grey coat patchy with sweat. Her delicate harks pinned back to her skull as she searched for a place to have her foal. The normally nervous and scared mare, seemed more confident in her steps as she slowly moved through the valley. The only reason she felt any form of confidence was the fact this wasn't the first time she had gone through this, alone. So when small twinges of pain began in her belly, she understood what they meant and she began seeking out a safe place to bring her foal into this wide world. By the time she reached these grounds, the frequency and intensity of her pain had increased to the point that she knew this foal was coming soon.
Lowering her maw to the ground she snuffed the drying grass, snorting in an unsure manner before pawing the ground. The mare turned in a tight circle before folding her long legs beneath her, lowering her heavy, rounded body to the ground. Grunting as another wave of pain washed over her, Kokai glanced back at her wide belly and sighed closing her eyes. She winced as a stronger contraction rippled through her, causing her at last to roll onto her side and begin pushing in earnest. It took some time, but all in all this time wasn't much more difficult that her first foal, Maximus, had been to bring into this world. At least this time she wasn't as fearful for the process and outcome.
Once the foal slipped from her body, she raised her slightly sweaty neck to gaze at the wet body behind her. Nickering softly, she rolled up and began cleaning her filly. Cleaning the young one's face, Kokai pulled herself to her hooves, lowering her head down to finish cleaning the little filly. Smiling as the filly began to try to struggle to her spindly legs, the mare took a small step back to give her child room to stand up. Once the filly managed to gather her long legs under her body, Kokai nuzzled her softly, guiding her toward her flank so she could nurse. "Come my beautiful little, Jezebel. Drink up, then we can go." She nickered softly, contentedly rubbing her foal as she began to nurse.

Jezebel
Everything was so strange. So new. The little foal was an alien to the world. And yet, it was natural. Though she knew little so far, she would soon learn of the love and hate that would surround her throughout her life. The first thing that reached her tender ear was a nicker from a tall horse she would learn to call, 'mother.' Her legs were now gathered under her, it was all moving so quickly. Her legs couldn't quite pick up the pace at the rate her brain was vying for. It made the young child clumsy and comical to watching eyes.
Her eyes were fuzzy at first as she stood there, but quickly enough she was able to see a white mare. A very tall white mare. Somehow, she felt safe near her. She raised her head to look closer while she was groomed. Curiosity clung to her emotion. And of course, joy. The gentle but sudden feeling of her mother's nose guiding her startled the small grey mare. What was even stranger to her was the noise that seemed to be coming from her dam's mouth. As a response she defiantly gave her mother a nicker, trying to copy the noise. Soon after her frugal stand off, she happily began nursing. For what was more entertaining then eating to a newborn? The taste was immensely delicious. Her lips were temporarily stained with the whitish think liquid. She kept drinking, harder and more furious. This stuff is amazing!
