[[Hey just a quick question for HorsesSoul. Can you give me an idea of how the much time will go on before the month changes on average? It will give me a rough idea on RPing better with that knowledge in mind, so thanks!]]

Dahlia moved silently and carefully through the forest until she came to a small stream of clear water. She scanned the whole place for movements and danger, but there were only playful squirrels rustling the leaves on treetops and the sound of joyful birdsong filling the air. Dahlia lowered her head to drink, long neck craning inches above the water, when she noticed deer tracks on the shore. She realized another herd must have passed by not too long ago. Dahlia didn't think much f it. She stepped into the shallow peaceful river just to feel the cool refreshing water at her ankles and sucked the pure cool water into her mouth.

Aster gasped and was frightened so much at the sudden appearance of the doe in front of her that her heart nearly stopped. She sighed with much relief after passing the initial shock, but remained shy and cautious. "I-I'm sorry." She stuttered slowly. "You're right, you're totally right. I'm just so afraid of being by myself, you see.." she whispered the words, trailing off and lowered her head, ashamed of being so weak and unable to fend for herself well on her own. After a short silence, Aster spoke again, more softly than ever. "Do you have a herd?" she inquired of the stranger doe, wondering if she had overstepped her boundaries. Even though every part of her urged not to press any further, Aster mustered all her courage and told the stranger her story. "My friend Delilah, well she was an older doe that used to travel with me. I felt much safer when I had someone to watch my back while I was grazing. We looked out for each other. One night she disappeared." Aster wondered if the other doe could see how young and inexperienced she was, how desperately she needed company, and how she was so thin and frail and afraid. She hoped the doe would stay with her, or at least tell her of another herd close by, but she dare not ask.
[[ Poor Aster is not very sharp at observing and noticing her surroundings, so maybe you can make Rose notice Oprettah in the bushes nearby haha ]]
